Update: Shortly after this little joke from Tom Holland hit the internet, Marvel officially rolled out the teaser poster for AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR
The actors over at Marvel are clearly not the best secret keepers. Most recently, actor Mark Ruffalo accidentally live-streamed the first ten minutes of THOR: RAGNAROK, most likely causing a wide-spread panic over at Marvel Studios and Disney. Now the ball is in Tom Holland’s court, and one could say he topped Ruffalo by "accidentally" leaking an image of one very important piece of INFINITY WAR material: the teaser poster.
As is seen in the full video, Holland got a package "from Mark Ruffalo", to which Holland opens it up and shows off the goods, only to reveal a "confidential" notice:
As you can make out, the poster has a gilded “A” for Avengers on it, with the word “Infinity” across the middle. This design is in keeping with the other AVENGERS teaser poster, wherein the “A” is the only thing we get. Hey, I don’t blame Holland for wanting to share this piece of art. It’s exciting stuff, and in this INFINITY WAR hysteria, a bunch of stuff gets "accidentally" shared. Now it’s up to another Marvel star to drop some other kind of surprise before it’s supposed to go out. Looking at you, Robert Downey Jr.
All in all, this is a pretty funny way of unveiling a key piece of information. This isn't exactly the way we normally first see posters for very important movies, but, hey, the poster may drop along with the trailer tomorrow anyway, so really we should just thank him for giving us this gift early. This is just but one exciting new piece of material we have for INFINITY WAR, as Marvel plans to officially break the internet tomorrow with the new trailer.
