Hong Kong: Man beaten for yelling out ‘Avengers Endgame’ spoilers
A Hong Kong man was beaten outside of a cinema for shouting out spoilers to fans waiting to see Avengers: Endgame.
Taiwanese media said the unidentified man was left bloodied outside a cinema in Causeway Bay, Hong Kong. A photo of the purported victim circulated online and shows him sitting on the street with blood coming from his head.
Taiwanese media says the man, dressed in white, just exited the auditorium after watching the blockbuster film and started screaming spoilers at those waiting by the entrance.
An open letter was shared on Instagram by Marvel Studios co-directors Joe and Anthony Russo after some leaked footage and images from Avengers: Endgame was shared online.
The Russos pleaded with early-screening audiences to be silent regarding major plot points. “When you see Endgame in the coming weeks, please don’t spoil it for others, the same way you wouldn’t want it spoiled for you,” the Russos said in the joint statement.
The full statement read on Twitter:
“To the greatest fans in the world:
“This is it. This is the end. The end of an unprecedented narrative mosaic spanning eleven years and eleven franchises.
When you see Endgame in the coming weeks, please don’t spoil it for others, the same way you wouldn’t want it spoiled for you.
“Remember, Thanos still demands your silence.
“As always, good luck and happy viewing.’
“The pair singed off the letter and wrote a hashtag at the bottom – #DontSpoilTheEndgame.”
