SPOILERS: AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR Directors Reveal New Details On One Of The Film's Deleted Scenes
Avengers: Infinity War is currently in theaters, and like any film, a few scenes didn't make the theatrical cut. Now, directors Joe and Anthony Russo have shed some light on one of those sequences...
Every Marvel film, and pretty much all movies, inevitably leave some scenes on the cutting room floor and Avengers: Infinity War is no exception. In fact, fans have already seen bits of some of the film’s deleted scenes through the trailers leading up to its release.
Now, while speaking with ComicBook.com, the Russo Brothers revealed and explained one of the scene’s that didn’t make the theatrical cut.
The removed scene focused on the Guardians of the Galaxy and would have followed the team during their final moments on Knowhere, after Thanos kidnapped Gamora.
“And it's at that moment in the movie where they have lost Gamora to Thanos in the Knowhere and they don't know what to do about it. They don't know where to go. They have no idea what to do. And it serves as this very absurd scene about the Guardians not knowing what to do, that's very, very funny. And even though we loved the scene, the movie just wasn't asking for it at that moment."
It sounds like this scene would have largely served as a comedic moment, and with the Russo brothers aware that they "needed to keep things pushing" because of everything the film juggled, they ultimately removed it.
What do you folks make of this? Does it sound like something that should have stayed in the final cut of the movie, or do you think it was smart to remove it?
