As we celebrate the fifth anniversary of the release of Avengers: Endgame, the composer Alan Silvestri recalls the scene of the portalsone of the most important and iconic of the film.
Reached by Gamesradar+ at the Sands: International Film Festival, Alan Silvestri shared the reasons why, in his opinion, this sequence had such an impact, thus remaining imprinted even after time: “The show is ultimately overwhelming but I also think it’s so exciting because we’ve never seen Captain America have all his optimism destroyed. In a certain sense, his soul was dead, he was hopeless, he had given up. We had never seen anything like this happen to him before. It’s almost biblical that in his darkest hour a blessing appears, and then another, and then another“. During the interview, Alan Silvestri focuses in particular on the evolution of Captain America within the film (by the way, did you know this anecdote about Chris Evans’ mother and Avengers: Endgame?), and then returns to talk of the sequence in question.
Silvestri actually spoke about what it was like to witness the creation of this culminating moment and then finally see it completed: “The funniest thing is that I knew what it would be like, but when Sandra [la moglie di Silvestri] and I sat down and watched Joe [Russo]Anthony [Russo] and Kevin Feige seeing it for the first time, it was really incredible. At the end of the day, they are my audience and if they don’t like what I did, the rest of the people will never see or hear it.“. The interviewee then continued: “It was amazing to see the impact he had on them. They were very concerned about that scene, it was so important in the Marvel universe. And when we saw the last element, the music, come into play, realizing that it was doing exactly what we hoped it would do, it was amazing.“.
