Stan Lee filmed his Avengers 4 cameo before his death

Stan Lee, the comic book celebrity and all-around creative powerhouse passed away early Monday morning at the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, California. He is survived by his only daughter Joan Celia Lee and leaves behind a wealth of comic book legacies ranging from Spider-Man to Black Panther and everything in between.

As much as this is a sad news for all comic fans, we have some good news to remind you of and that is the fact that Stan Lee has already filmed his scenes for Avengers 4 and, presumably, the standalone Captain Marvel movie, as the Russo Brothers told BBC Radio Scotland.

They said “He’s the godfather of a lot of these stories, him and Jack Kirby. So, Stan, typically we try to get him out — he doesn’t love to fly — so we try to get him out for his cameos around the same time. So if we have other movies shooting on the same lot that we’re on, for instance, Ant-Man and the Wasp or Avengers 4, we group his cameos together and then move him from one set to the next and get him through his cameos in one day.”
