20''Avengers: Endgame'' is a 2019 superhero film directed by [[Creator/TheRussoBrothers Joe & Anthony Russo]], and written by Christopher Markus & Stephen [=McFeely=] -- the creative team behind the [[Film/CaptainAmericaTheWinterSoldier second]] and [[Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar third]] ''Captain America'' films. It is the direct sequel to ''Film/AvengersInfinityWar'' (which this film's directors and writers also worked on), the 22nd film entry of the Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse, the 10th (and penultimate) film in the MCU's Phase 3, and the end of the Infinity Stones MythArc that began with the first ''Avengers'' film [[Film/TheAvengers2012 in 2012]]. The film was originally titled ''Infinity War Part II'' until Marvel dropped the ''Part I'' moniker from the previous film to avoid the impression of a MovieMultipack,[[note]]largely seen as a response to ''[[Film/{{Divergent}} The Divergent Series]]'' attempting a two-parter multipack, only for the second part (''Ascendant'') to be thrown into DevelopmentHell by the commercial failure of the first part (''Allegiant'')[[/note]] leaving it untitled until audiences had had time to watch the former ''Infinity War Part I''.

22After the cataclysmic events of Thanos's victory, half of the universe's sentient life is gone, and the completed [[ArtifactOfDoom Infinity Gauntlet]] has disappeared with the Mad Titan to a faraway world. The surviving heroes from Film/{{the Avengers|2012}} and the Film/{{Guardians of the Galaxy|2014}}, meanwhile, are left to pick up the pieces of a shattered universe. However, following the arrival of a [[EleventhHourRanger few new allies]], Earth's mightiest heroes [[MassResurrection discover a means that may allow them to undo Thanos's genocide]], and bring back the friends and family lost. And so, along with said allies, the original six Avengers embark on [[OneLastJob one last mission together]] to set the world right, [[SuicideMission whatever it takes]].

24While this movie was ''not'' intended to be the final ''Avengers'' movie ever, the three-hour-long film served as the [[GrandFinale culmination of everything that has happened]] [[SeriesFauxnale in the MCU thus far since it began with]] ''Film/IronMan1'' all the way back in 2008, and the last with the original six Avengers serving as the focus. The movie is followed by ''Film/SpiderManFarFromHome'', which serves as an epilogue to the "Infinity Saga", exploring the [[NothingIsTheSameAnymore fallout]] of ''Infinity War'' and ''Endgame''. The [[Series/WandaVision first]] [[Series/TheFalconAndTheWinterSoldier three]] [[Series/Loki2021 series]] of Phase 4 all directly pick up from the events of ''Endgame'', and numerous entries [[Series/Hawkeye2021 in]] [[Film/ThorLoveAndThunder Phase]] [[Film/TheGuardiansOfTheGalaxyHolidaySpecial 4]] [[Film/AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania and]] [[Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxyVol3 5]] continue to focus on characters dealing with the aftermath of the film.

26The film was released in theaters on April 26th, 2019, and was re-released on June 28th with an introduction and post-credits featurette introduced by co-director Anthony Russo.
