In this episode of the 'It's Tom-plicated: A Tom Holland Film Podcast,' hosts⁠⁠ ⁠Alex Marcus⁠⁠⁠ and⁠⁠ ⁠Manish Mathur⁠⁠⁠ return to the MCU with an in depth discussion on Avengers: Endgame. This film hit theaters in April 2019 and delivered one of the most critically and commercially successful films in history.

Directed, once again, by Joe & Anthony Russo and written by screenwriting team Christopher Markus & Stephen McFeely, the film starred pretty much everyone in the MCU, but mainly Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Chris Hemsworth, Scarlett Brie Larson, Jeremy Renner, Mark Ruffalo, Paul Rudd, Zoe Saldana, Bradley Cooper, Karen Gillan, Danai Gurira, Josh Brolin, and Tom Holland who leads an impressive roster of cameos, surprise appearances, and returning favs.

On the podcast, Alex and Manish discuss their first time seeing the movie and their reactions to the devastating finale. They discuss why this film works much better for Alex than it did for Manish. They also get into the Hawkeye vs Black Widow debate, why tertiary characters played by Renee Russo and Tilda Swinton lowkey stole the movie from the heavy hitters in the cast, and how the film expertly balances the need to deliver a character driven action spectacle that still finds time for fan service without it distracting from the emotional heart of the film. Plus, an in depth discussion of Tom’s entire 5 minutes of screen time and Alex tries to explain how Steve Rogers ended up on that bench at the end of the film!

In two weeks, Alex and Manish cover Tom’s return to leading man status as he battles his own grief and the ghost of Hollywood it-boys’ past in Spider-Man: Far From Home!
