Marvel Studios took advantage of their own convention today to bring nearly the entirety of a massive ensemble cast on stage together at D23. While the cast has been busy filming in waves since January, this is the first time they have all been together in the public eye. Seeing many of the actors, who portray many popular characters form all across the MCU, we also finally get to see the Guardians of the Galaxy actors meet the Avengers.
The first person to take the stage was naturally the head behind teh entire operation, Kevin Feige, who was shortly followed up by the big bad of Avengers: Infinity War, Josh Brolin, who teases the might of Thaons. More of the cast came wandering out with cheers, as Vision, Paul Bettany, and the Elizabeth Olsen came out to greet the fans. That is not all, as shortly after Guardians actresses Pom Klementieff, Karen Gillian and the ever-enjoyable Drax, Dave Bautista entered the stage.

So many great actors on stage, it still did not end, as Spider-Man finally walked out on stage with a roaring applause for Tom Holland echoed through the room. Shortly after, the king has arrived, as Chadwick Boseman came out full of excitement. That was just the beginning, as they started with the big guns, as Mark Ruffalo, Chris Hemsworth and Robert Downey Jr. finished out the cast that was in attendance.

Sadly, there was no sign of Chris Pratt, who is probably finishing production on Jurassic World 2, Paul Rudd, who is out filming Ant-Man and the Wasp or Chris Evans, but there is still the chance that many actors might make an appearance at San Diego Comic Con later in the month. Here is the official picture of everyone assembled at D23!
It is an amazing sight to behold that so many actors from the MCU have finally come together right before they would give us a first true glimpse at what can be expected from the film. What a time to be alive!
