The Traitors actor added, "Isn't it nuts? I'm excited and amazed. It's been 23 years since I was a superhero.”

Son of the Mask star opened that the new film is going to be a 'game changer.'

"Before, all of the tattoos were done by hand. They hadn't decided on them before we started filming. Now, they just stick onto my face. It's a game changer”, he said.

Cumming continued, "I'm going back to being a 60-year-old superhero, and everyone seems really lovely.”

Directed by Russo brothers, the new Avengers movie is going to feature Robert Downey Jr, Pedro Pascal, Tom Holland, Joseph Quinn, Chris Hemsworth, Florence Pugh and Hailee Steinfeld.
