A lot’s changed since then.

So why did filmmakersJoeandAnthony Russodecide to split up production on their Avengers epics?

In short, it was just too much to keep track of.

Of course, that doesn’t mean production was easy.

The filmmaker (who got pneumonia on set) continued,

“We did shoot them back-to-back.

Literally, we finished shooting Infinity War and we rolled right into the next avengers movie.

We were literally shooting for a straight year without stopping.

It was a very intense, very difficult year, a very challenging year.

Its a good thing theres two of us.

So we did separate them just because they were so complex.”

And once we were doing that, people were getting confused about what scene was in which film.

It was draining everyones energy and resources.
