Avengers: Infinity War behind the scenes look features some interesting new footage (and lots of hugging)

Doctor Strange and Star Lord finally meet in new tease

With the release of Avengers: Infinity War drawing ever closer, Marvel and Disney going all-out and releasing dozens of new teases.

Thanks to a featurette named “Family”, we can have a sneak-peak behind-the-scenes, featuring lots of new footage – including Star Lord almost raising a middle finger – along with lots of hugging.

Chris Hemsworth, Chris Pratt, Gwyneth Paltrow, Robert Downey Jr., Jon Favreau, Elizabeth Olsen, Danai Gurira, Benedict Cumberbatch, and Mark Ruffalo all appear as talking heads.

Infinity War, which marks the culmination of 10 years of Marvel movies, has already set records — the first full trailer quickly became the most-watched trailer within 24 hours ever.

American ticket sellers Fandango say the Russo Brothers-directed movie has already sold more presale tickets than the last seven Marvel movies combined – that includes Black Panther, Thor: Ragnarok, and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2.

Half an hour of footage was recently shown to the public, the reaction being overwhelmingly positive.

Meanwhile, Black Panther — the titular character from which features in Infinity War — continues to smash box-office records, becoming the highest-grossing superhero movie of all time in the US and overtaking Titanic.

Infinity War touches down 27 April.
