Ahead of the in-home release of Avengers: Endgame on options including DVD and Blu-Ray next month (and the July 30 digital release) the co-directors of the massively successful 22nd film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe have announced a nine-city “We Love You 3000 Tour” that kicks off this weekend in San Diego for Comic-Con and wraps up in Anaheim at the end of August as part of Disney’s D23 Expo.
The tour, the name of which references that heartbreaking line that Tony Stark and his daughter say to each other in Endgame, is being billed as a way for the directors — brothers Joe and Anthony Russo — along with Marvel to say a big thank-you to fans for helping to make the MCU such a generation-defining movie franchise.
As part of the tour, there will be activities for fans and giveaways that include limited edition and autographed prints. City-specific experiences will include a Cleveland, Ohio trolley tour that takes visitors to some of the studio’s filming locations, and there will also be photo booths and much more.
Marvel Studios and #AvengersEndgame directors Anthony and Joe Russo have teamed up to launch the #WeLoveYou3000 Tour! As a thank you to fans, the nationwide tour will feature meet & greets with the @Russo_Brothers, giveaways, and more. For details, visit: https://t.co/SnUU6VOcIX pic.twitter.com/lLhWDiDYUU
