Sad news people, but the Avengers 4 trailer could be further away than you think.

Its been a long waiting game for the Infinity War sequel and even more difficult wait for the trailer.

While it was thought a trailer would be released sometime this year, co-director Joe Russo has hinted that we may wait until 2019.

You may or may not see it before the calendar turns to 2019, Russo said during an Instagram fan Q&A.

This still means the trailer could come out any minute now but it also means we may have to wait until 2019.

Lord help us all, the wait is painful as it is.

Excuse our anguish but it wasnt long ago that Marvel boss Kevin Feige said that it would be with us before the end of the year.

Considering the fact that there is less than two months left this in 2018, we were fairly optimistic hearing that.

During the interview, Russo also revealed some more information on what length the movie currently stood at, admitting that it was currently the longest Marvel movie by far.

The running time on Avengers 4 is currently sitting right at three hours, so well see if that holds, he said. But its sitting right at three hours right now.

We doubt anyone will have any complaints because Avengers 4 has a lot of answering to do after we were all left on an incredibly tense cliffhanger during Infinity War.

While details are under wraps on the next movie, one star has had their return pretty much confirmed.

British star Letitia Wright has reportedly confirmed that the actress will reprise her role as Princess Shuri in the new Avenger and the Black Panther sequel after fans questioned whether she survived Thanos potentially fatal finger snap.

According to Deadline, Letitia, 25, recently wrapped filming on-set of Avengers 4, directed by Joe and Anthony Russo, and its believed Shuri was appearing in the productions reshoots.

Shuris fate was left up in the air in Infinity War with her being knocked aside by Corvus Glaive when Thanos charged into Wakanda to steal Visions Mind Stone.

Letitias Black Panther co-star, Angela Bassett, recently leaked the news of Shuris return, when confirming that two Wakandans survived Thanos snap, telling Screen Rant in July: No. Neither did my daughter. Shuri, shes a bright girl there in Wakanda. So…

So… well take that as our girl Shuri is definitely back.

Avengers 4 is set to hit screens on 27 April although a trailer is yet to be released.
