Since "Avengers: Infinity War" is going to be the culmination of every Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) film that came before it, the film is expected to have a huge cast to go along with its enormous scale. So far, Marvel Studios have kept things under wraps, but two cast members have recently come out and revealed that they are going to star in the film.

In an interview with Italian magazine L'Uomo Vogue (via ComicBook.com), Spider-Man actor, Tom Holland, confirmed that he's going to be part of "Avengers: Infinity War."

ComicBook.com's translation is a bit iffy, but it sounds like Robert Downey Jr. and Chris Evans managed to convince the studio to include Holland's character in the film by vouching that he would have no problem doing three films in four years.

The second character confirmed for "Avengers: Infinity War" is Gamora. In an interview with MTV News (via Screen Rant), Zoe Saldana admitted that her character is going to be in the film, but she said she hasn't read the script yet.

"I don't know when they're gonna let me read it. I mean, I'm not looking forward to the five hours of green make-up, but every time I finally arrive on set I feel so happy and lucky to be there," she stated.

Gamora's involvement in the film doesn't come as a surprise because after all, she's Thanos' (Josh Brolin) daughter. And the rest of the Guardians of the Galaxy are also expected to appear.

But fans were a little worried that Spider-Man might not be in "Avengers: Infinity War" because Holland's name wasn't included in the cast list shared by MovieCastingCall.org last month. It's good to hear that Spider-Man would be helping the rest of the heroes take down Thanos after he stole the show in "Captain America: Civil War."

"The Avengers: Infinity War" is scheduled to premiere on May 4, 2018.
