Chris Prattpulled back the curtain on one ofAvengers: Endgame‘s biggest moments on Monday, sharing a rare behind-the-scenes video from the set of the superhero blockbuster film.
The 39-year-old actor — who plays Peter Quill (a.k.a. Star-Lord) in the Marvel Cinematic Universe — uploaded said clip to his Instagram, explaining in the caption that he shot the footage even though he was told not to.
“I remember being blown away in this moment on the [Avengers: Endgame] set,” he wrote. “Nobody was allowed to film anything on their phones. I said screw it. No rule was going to stop me from seizing this once in a lifetime opportunity to capture this collection of stars, a group that likely will never be in the same room again. We are so blessed.”
Those who sawAvengers: Endgamewill recognize the moment clearly. It comes from the epic final battle sequence in the movie, where theAvengersteam unites to take down Thanos (Josh Brolin).
Seen in Pratt’s clip are a bevy of the franchise’s biggest stars, includingChris Evans, Robert Downey, Jr., Mark Ruffalo, Chris Hemsworth, Jeremy Renner, Paul Rudd, Chadwick Boseman, Danai Gurira, Tom Holland, Dave Bautista, Don Cheadle, Elizabeth Olsen, Sebastian Stan, and Pom Klementieff.
“This is a really illegal video,” he admits, after panning the camera to show everyone in the room.
