The film everyone has been waiting for is finally here. On April 26, we will finally discover the fates of our superheroes in Avengers: Endgame after Thanos snapped half of the universe into oblivion.
The film also marks the end of a chapter. Although the MCU is vast and story lines and characters are interconnected in this complex universe, the curtain will come down on some of our favorite heroes.
Chris Evans, who was inducted into the Marvel fold in the studio's fifth MCU film with Captain America in 2011, hinted at a fond farewell.
Now that he's seen Endgame, it solidified the reality of his departure and he shed some tears at the premiere.
His emotional response is understandable, given his nearly decades-long involvement in the films. But the amount of times he cried while watching Endgame doesn't bode well for those of us who aren't good at hiding our emotions.
Evans told The Hollywood Reporter about having seen the first hour of Endgame.
"This one's really good. I choked up like three times."
Now, after seeing the entire movie, he reportedly cried six times.
Audiences are not only not prepared to say goodbye to Evans, they're not prepared to ugly cry into their popcorn.
But Thor himself had Captain America beat. Chris Hemsworth said he cried more than six times.
The thought of these manly men being such softies gives the rest of us no hope in saving face.
This is our Endgame.
Get those box of tissues ready, because the forecast calls for slobbering messes.
