Russo Bros Declare “We’re Back to Phase Zero” With ‘Avengers: Doomsday’ and Robert Downey Jr.

The Russo brothers fired up a rainy SXSW London on Tuesday afternoon.

AGBO co-founders Anthony and Joe Russo were joined by their partner, former chief creative officer at Epic Games Donald Mustard, at a headline session titled “Building Artistic Universes Without Borders” at the Shoreditch instalment of the major festival and conference event.

The directors of Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame began by lauding the record-breaking box office work of *Obsession *and *Backrooms *filmmakers, 26-year-old Curry Barker and 20-year-old Kane Parsons, who have become the latest cinematic saviors of horror. “If you just follow your own ethos, I’m fascinated by Obsession… [It’s] viciously funny, right? In a very dark way, made for less than a million dollars, and will be the highest return ever for a movie,” said Anthony Russo.
