Marvel’s Infinity War is just 2 months away, and there are rumors that this may be the longest movie in the history of the MCU. The scope of this movie will need a lot of time to cover the bases and introduce all the team-ups and the members of Thanos’ Black Order. Form the short amount of footage that the fans have seen in the first trailer, and TV spot have revealed that there is a whole lot going on.
The Infinity War runtime comes from SM Cinema, which is the largest movie theater in the Philippines. They have launched presale tickets for the film, and a Reddit user had taken a screenshot, and this shows that the runtime is 2-hours and 30-minute. The screenshot shows the international April 25th release date.
The Russo Brothers might be working on the final cut of this movie, and so this may be a placeholder of sorts. The runtime for The Last Jedi was leaked in September, which was ahead of the December release date. 150 minutes seems right to cover everything.
Captain America: Civil War had held the record at 147 minutes, and Infinity War is 3 minutes longer. Civil War had introduced a few new team-ups and had featured the silver screen debut of Black Panther.
Infinity War will release on May 4th and on April 25th internationally. It is crucial to note that the rumor has not been officially verified. The runtime fits into what we have seen before, and it also makes sense, considering the scope of this movie. There is no reason not to believe the report.
