The Russo brothers, Anthony Russo and Joe Russo, makers of Avengers: Infinity War, impressed Marvel fans with that film and left them eagerly waiting for the sequel. In a recent interaction with the media, they have disclosed that the runtime of the sequel will most likely be longer than that of the first instalment. 

Given that Infinity War was two hours and forty minutes long, their statement has increased the probability of the sequel being the longest ever Marvel Cinematic Universe film. The director duo also added that they do not want to spoil the pace of the film, and are therefore trying to cut the length of the film as much as possible. 

Avengers: Infinity War, which was released on April 23, has shattered many box office records and is still running. The film has been lauded by both the audience and the critics. 

The sequel to Infinity War is scheduled for release on May 3, 2019.
