Earlier this week, Page Six (via Heroic Hollywood) ran a quick note on actor Aaron Lazar, a television and Broadway actor who will be acting as the body double for Benedict Cumberbatch on the set of Avengers: Infinity War.
Instead, I’ll simply bookmark this article for when the Avengers: Infinity War re-shoots are announced and everyone who forgot that Cumberbatch was unavailable during principle photography wonders if it means that the film is In Trouble.
“That’s me,” Aaron Lazar will tell his grandchildren as they watch the Turner Movie Classics broadcast of Avengers: Infinity War, explaining that they can only see Grandpa Lazar wearing the Cloak of Levitation when the character’s back is turned to the camera.
It can’t exactly be easy to bring together two dozen of the world’s most popular actors for one giant superhero brawl, but that is exactly what a few hard-working Marvel employees in Los Angeles are currently doing for Avengers: Infinity War.
