The
Leak
Originated
From
China
Reportedly,
the
leak
originated
in
China
where
the
film
released
two
days
before
the
US,
on
April
24.
Later, Robert
Downey
Jr
had
tweeted,
"Keep
those
spoilers
to
yourself...," urging
fans
not
to
spoil
the
film.
This
Is
Sad!
It
is
said
that began
appearing
online
between
4
and
5
pm
China
time.
Within
minutes
of
the
file
appearing
online,
‘dozens
of
exclusively
China-located
users'
began
sharing
it.
The
file
was
later
circulated
on
non-Chinese
platforms
such
as
ThePirateBay
and
India's
TamilRockers,
stated
a
HT
report.
The
Leaked
Files
TorrentFreak
quoted
a
source
as
saying,
"The
image
flickers
constantly
throughout.
It's
semi-rotated
and
is
littered
throughout
with
watermarks
for
a
gambling
site
that
spin
around
the
screen."
Maintaining
The
Secrecy
It
is
said
that
there
were
no
hard
copies
of
the
scripts
and
there
were
only
three
iPads
which
contained
the
full
script.
Only
Robert
Downey
Jr
(and
perhaps
Chris
Evans)
had
access
to
the
full
script,
while
the
rest
of
the
cast
were
only
given
their
lines.
Further,
specific
scenes
were
filmed
in
closed
environments,
and
multiple
versions
were
shot
so
as
to
throw
the
crew
off.
The
Avengers
Craze
In
India
The
film's
advance
ticket
sale
broke
several
records
in
India
ahead
of
the
film's
release
on
April
26.
The
film
is
the
first
one to
have
24×7
showtimes
at
Mumbai
multiplex
chains
and
there
are
shows
as
early
as
3.20
am!
