Although he is not feature in the clip, Ali can hear asking Kit Harrington’s character, “Sure you’re ready for that, Mr. Whitman?”
The delay of Scarlett Johansson’s ‘Black Widow’ had a domino effect on the rest of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The delays meant more time for the world wide web to leak important details of the film. One of the major plot leaks was the confirmation of the character’s death in the post-credit scene.

Those keeping up with the MCU will know that the time travel plot leak way before the film could complete filming. These rumors confirm when photos from the sets saw the star cast shooting re-takes in their old costumes. Despite several other spoilers that leaked online, the film still made it past the USD 2 billion mark at the box office.
Heading into ‘Avengers: Infinity War’, fans were warned that some of their favorite characters would quite literally bite the dust. But no one seemed prepared for half the Avengers to disappear with the snap of Thanos’ fingers. Interestingly, Mark Ruffalo a.k.a. Bruce Banner, a.k.a. the Hulk dropped the spoiler a whole year before the film could release. In an interview, he let slip saying, “In this next one, ha — everybody dies!”
The star, who is known to accidentally reveal details of the script was stopped by his co-star Don Cheadle, who yelled, “Dude!” to prevent him from doing any more damage.
