Marvel Studios have had to back-track on the 'Avengers: Endgame' poster because of displeasure from fans.
In case you missed it yesterday (WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?) 'Avengers: Endgame' dropped the most recent trailer for the upcoming superhero jaunt. We also hope it's the final trailer we see, to save us from any potential Thanos-sized spoilers.
Anyway, along with the fresh new trailer came a brand new 'Endgame' poster. Marvel Studios posted it onto heir Twitter account.

While the poster looks cool and all, and only features those Avengers who have been left after Thanos' snap; fans were a little peeved with Marvel. Danai Gurira, who plays Okoye, was the only actor who failed to get their own name credit at the top of the poster.
The Zimbabwean-American actress, who plays a vital role in 'Black Panther', as well as being a bad-ass, scene stealing warrior, was left out in the cold - and fans reacted.
Um... why is the ONLY person who appears on this poster that is NOT credited Danai Gurira? I’m pretty sure that needs rectifying quickly Marvel! Mainly because she deserves her name up there just as much as everyone else. And also, because Okoye is Queen ??

Please add Danai Gurira's name to the top credits.

You didn’t have enough room to put Danai’s name on the top of the poster? pic.twitter.com/Lk8wNShpCl

Some made the very valid point that Bradley Cooper, who voices Rocket Racoon, and Karen Gillan, who wasn't even an Avenger last time we checked, were given credits.

Nebula isn’t an Avenger, her name is up there.

Fortunately, Marvel Studios noticed their *mistake* and fixed it a few hours later.
She should have been up there all this time. Check out the official Marvel Studios' #AvengersEndgame poster. @DanaiGurira #WakandaForever pic.twitter.com/5V1veWMxlz
