Here’s when the last Stan Lee cameo will happen
SUMMARY
Fans now have one more reason to be excited for the upcoming release of Avengers: Endgame. According to the film's director, the fourth flick will feature Stan Lee's final cameo in a Marvel movie.
"It's his last one committed to film," Joe Russo told Mashable at a press day in Los Angeles, squelching the rumor that had been going around that Lee's final appearance would be in July 2019's Spider-Man: Far From Home.
Russo went on to add, "I have to say, I think it's astonishing that this would be his last cameo. It's just kind of mind-boggling that he made it to the end of this run. I can't believe it."
Since Iron Man in 2008, the comic book legend, who passed away in 2018 at the age of 95, has found his way into every installment of the Marvel franchise, even after his death. His most recent cameo was in Captain Marvel, which came out in March 2019. In the brief clip, Lee plays himself as a passenger on a train, rehearsing lines from a script.
And while the upcoming film will be the last time viewers get to see Lee on-screen, some wonder whether the Avengers movie will contain more than one cameo due to its three-hour length. After all, at just over two hours long, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2had not one but two appearances from Lee.
Regardless, fans of the superhero series don't have to wait much longer to find out. Avengers: Endgames is set to be released in theaters nationwide on April 26 2019.
