The key elements from the movie that they added to the trailer, don’t make it to the film, according to the brothers. It might look like they were revealing too much of the movie in the trailer but it has “so much scope, so much drive and so much action, that this is merely the tip of the iceberg.” said Anthony.

It’s a great move to leave trailers on a cliffhanger, for it lures in the viewers indefinitely. Talking about the end of the trailer, Joe Russo explained the cliffhanger; in which we see Ryan and Chris walking toward each other and breaking into a fight; followed by the final black-out.

Russo said that the cliffhanger was in accordance with the main theme of the movie; which is “Ryan Gosling vs Chris Evans”; and it tickles the viewer’s curiosity as it implies, “one’s gotta win one’s gotta lose.”  Till this record-breaking movie comes out, you can fill the void by watching other things on Netflix. Also, don’t forget to let us know in the comments your views of the trailer/movie.
