While the devastating ending to Avengers: Infinity War was as much a shock to most of the cast as it was to heartbroken fans, Paul Rudd managed to find out years before his co-stars – despite not even starring in the movie.
He doesnt even go here.
While many of the stars were left in the dark about Thanos wiping out half the population with a snap of his fingers, Paul claims he just had to know in order to film Ant-Man. How convenient.
The 50-year-old explained: I knew about it early on because when we were writing Ant-Man, I had to know about these things.

However, they later decided on the epic cliffhanger as it was the most bananas thing they could think up.
Marvel president Kevin Feige said: We talked about that ending for years and years and years. It was the reason to adapt Infinity Gauntlet. What was the most shocking thing we could do? End the movie with The Snap.
While the move definitely did the job and left us all completely heartbroken, its also left everyone wonderinRead More – Source
