Avengers: Infinity War started shooting today, with Marvel releasing a brief featurette for the May 4, 2018 film. And while the video is mostly the studio’s creative side, discussing things like the careful moving of pieces that split the Avengers apart in Captain America: Civil War, or the difficulties in establishing villain Thanos as the baddest of the bad, it starts off with a bang, filming Robert Downey Jr., Tom Holland, and Chris Pratt all together on-set in Atlanta.
