Production has officially begun today on the upcoming, highly-anticipated Avengers: Infinity War and directors Anthony and Joe Russo have offered a unique teaser for the film by showing the extensive amount of trailers (not that kind) that are on set.
The feature is expected to have a giant cast, combining the the forces of both The Avengers and the Guardians of the Galaxy, so the trailer budget is probably even higher than usual for the production.
In related news, Marvel co-president Louis D’Esposito also posted a photo on social media, teasing spending his mornings on the set of Black Panther and his afternoons with Infinity War.
