Marvel Studios Debuts Epic Class Photo From Top Secret Shoot
Marvel Studios just released their class photo, to celebrate 10 years of the MCU. The secret photo shoot was hinted at in October 2017, which was teased at by several superhero stars. Fans have been waiting for the debut of the big photo, and four months later they finally have it.
The new photo was released on Marvel Studios Instagram page, and was subsequently shared by dozens of actors from the MCU. At first glance, the image looks like a bunch of ants piled up on a stage, with most of the faces unrecognizable. In order to truly appreciate the photo, fans will need to zoom in to get a look at their favorite stars from the MCU.
According to Deadline, the photo has over 80 major players from the MCU including actors, filmmakers, producers, and Marvel studio head, Kevin Feige.
The MCU began in 2008 with Iron Man, and was shortly followed by the often forgotten Incredible Hulk. Edward Norton portrayed Bruce Banner, and is noticeably absent in the photo. The film’s director, Louis Leterrier, does make an appearance however. Also missing from the photo is Tom Hiddleston (Loki), Clark Gregg (Agent Phil Coulson), and Bradley Cooper (Rocket Raccoon).
