Marvel’s “Avengers: Endgame” stars reappear in an ad for the Democratic ticket that was mocked as a “new crisis” for the Harris campaign.
Actors Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Mark Ruffalo, Danai Gurira, Don Cheadle and Paul Bettany took part in a video support for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz, which was posted on Ruffalo’s X account on Thursday.
“We’re back. Let’s gather for #democracy. In the #ElectionEndgame, every vote counts.” Ruffalo wrote encouragingly People should vote for Harris and the Democrats.
In the video, he jokingly suggested that Harris needed a catchphrase, referencing his previous films.
“How about this? I’m absolutely out of my mind: ‘I could do this all day,'” Evans said.
Downey said, “How about something more lethal like this?”
“Boom! Are you looking for it?” Cheadle finished.
Gurira said, “Kamala forever.”
Bettany commented, “How about ‘I’m for democracy’? That’s plain and simple.”
“I’m Kamala Harris and I call for the destruction of democracy,” Cheadle joked, adding, “Yes, we have to come together to destroy democracy.”
“I’m Kamala Harris, and I’m with democracy,” she said at the end of the video.
The video was savaged by other X users, who saw it as an embarrassing and indirectly tone-deaf advertisement for Harris.
