WARNING: Major spoilers ahead for Avengers: Endgame.
The film is loaded with surprising re-appearances from Marvel fan favourites, but one in particular has had fans a little puzzled.
This is your final spoiler warning – look away now if you haven’t seen the movie.
Following the heartbreaking funeral of Tony Stark towards the end, there is a truly epic shot of his mourners, taking in just about anyone who’s anyone in the MCU.
The young man is Harley Keener, played by Ty Simpkins.

He doesn’t have any lines, and he only appears on screen for the briefest moment – but his attendance at the funeral is particularly poignant.
The IMDb listing for Avengers: Endgame confirms it is him – the same actor – making the appearance.
Simpkins has kept busy since the release of Iron Man 3 – he’s been in Insidious: Chapter 2, Jurassic World, Insidious: The Last Key and the TV series Chimerica.
He was at the LA premiere of Avengers: Endgame on Monday night to help bid farewell to the Infinity Saga.
AVENGERS ENDGAME REVIEW HERE
Among the group is a young man who you may recognise.
He’s one of many Marvel stars to appear at the funeral, including even the likes of Michelle Pfeiffer, Marisa Tomei and Samuel L Jackson as Janet Van Dyne, Aunt May Parker and Nick Fury respectively.
Elsewhere in the film, we’re treated to comebacks that include John Slattery as Howard Stark, Hayley Atwell as Peggy Carter, Rene Russo as Thor’s mother Frigga, and Taika Waititi as Korg.
As per speculation earlier this week, Linda Cardellini is back as Laura Barton, as is Natalie Portman as Jane Foster – although the latter is only in shot for the briefest of moments.
Robert Downey Jr’s exit as Iron Man was a particularly heartbreaking moment but it wasn’t especially surprising: it’s long been suggested that the star is leaving the MCU after this current movie.
Avengers: Endgame has received a wave of very positive reviews, and currently sits at a stunning 96% on Rotten Tomatoes.
The movie is expected to rake in a jaw-dropping box office gross over its opening weekend, en route to becoming one of the biggest grossing movies of all time.
In fact, bookies today issued 4/6 odds that it will eclipse Avatar’s all-time record by the time it finishes its cinematic run.
That would be a win:win for Zoe Saldana, who stars in both.
