*Heads up for some major spoilers below! If you haven't seen Avengers: Endgame yet, proceed at your own risk.
Mark Ruffalo is a bit of a klutz, but we love him anyway.
Theactor, best known these days for playing Bruce Banner/Hulk in the Avengers series––though you should do yourself a favor and check out his other stuff, like his Academy Award-nominated work, too––is a walking liability because he keeps spoiling big moments from the Marvel franchise.
Do ya'll remember when he spoiled a key moment from Thor: Ragnarok?

How about that time he spoiled another moment from Avengers: Infinity War?

After those two notable blunders, everyone took precautions, but it appears their efforts were for naught, because despite a relatively unmarred publicity tour, Ruffalo still managed to spoil an important moment from Avengers: Endgame.
The incident took place back in early April, when during an interview with E! News, Ruffalo revealed that the Endgame script had several fake scenes and that the cast filmed scenes that the filmmakers never intended to put in the movie:
"I didn't even get a whole script for this movie. I don't know why. The script I did get had dummy scenes in it."
Ruffalo added that he read a scene in the script in which Steve Rogers/Captain America (played by actor Chris Evans) gets married to Peggy Carter (Haley Atwell). And that's exactly what happened in the film, by the way, right after Rogers does his part to return the Infinity Stones.
Evans, to his credit, caught Ruffalo's blunder, and managed to cover for him:
"Mark's a real liability. They have to throw Mark off the scent. You have zero cred. You have earned no trust in the Marvel universe. You, like, leak like a bodily function."

But now that the movie's out (and because the internet is full of detectives), people KNOW WHAT YOU DID, MARK.

A few days ago, Ruffalo even posted that he'd managed to survive the publicity tour without spoiling the film...none the wiser.
Now that #AvengersEndgame is out in the world, you all can finally live without the fear of me spoiling it 🙈… https://t.co/hq9dOtnoz3— Mark Ruffalo (@Mark Ruffalo) 1556312267.0
We're on to you, Mark. We're on to you.
Let's just say Renner's Hawkeye will be keeping a close watch on those who urinate standing up.
The ad is definitely not for the pee shy.
Renner posted the photo from a bathroom stall on Instagram, captioned with:
"So.... I know they do ads 'differently' in Europe... but #euro-peein' #avengersendgame #aintlookin #ipromise #wtf"
Renner, 48, made a splash in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) films as Clint Barton, a.k.a. Hawkeye, beginning with Thor (2011), The Avengers (2012), Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015) and Captain America: Civil War (2016).
In response to his observation, the entertaining comments flooded his post.

Fans missed seeing Renner in Infinity War, but directors Anthony and Joe Russo assured fans there was a reason for his absence.
"We keep saying, 'Patience is a virtue,' we did not forget the twice-nominated Jeremy Renner."
"We just cooked up a story for him that is a little bit of a long play. Not a short play."
Fans' suspicions about Renner's identity swap were confirmed when a new trailer revealed that Hawkeye was now Ronin, an alias used by several characters within the MCU.
His newly adopted moniker is in reference to a Japanese term meaning "masterless samurai," and the lone warrior's weapon of choice is the katana blade, a worthy upgrade from his bow and arrow.
How did he become Ronin? Fans may have their theories, but we'll have to wait until Endgame to find out the details of his transformation.
