[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”12404″ img_size=”800×450″ alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]It should surprise absolutely no one that Avengers: Endgame is one of the most anticipated movies in 2019. In fact, Fandango recently determined in a poll that Endgame is THE most anticipated, topping Captain Marvel and Star Wars: Episode IX, which follow behind the fourth Avengers movie.
Brie Larson was also voted as the most anticipated actress, as Tom Hanks was voted in the actor category for his upcoming portrayal of Mr. Rogers.
Fandango’s Managing Editor Erik Davis commented:
“The popularity of superhero movies is at an all-time high as we head into the new year. Marvel fans are particularly anxious for the final Avengers chapter after that Infinity War cliffhanger, and are eagerly awaiting the studio’s first standalone female superhero, Captain Marvel. It’s also clear Star Wars fans are missing their December fix, and they cannot wait for the next chapter in the Skywalker saga, Episode IX.”
