Marvel Fans Organize Avengers: Endgame Free Screening For Cancer Patients

Moments like this make us proud to be a geek!

A couple of Marvel fans have set out to make the world a better place. Dillon Hill and Clay Stevens, the duo behind One List One Life, are about the make a group of people happy. Come April, the pair has revealed they’ve rented out a full theatre in the Sacramento, California area to provide free access to Avengers: Endgame to cancer patients and those admitted at a local children’s hospital.

This is a welcome change to the usual toxicity we’re used to with these fanbases. One List One Life is a crowdfunded video series following two friends, Dillon and Clay, on their journey to make bucket list dreams possible for people greatly affected by cancer.

The team told ComicBook.com:

Our end goal for this event is to have a theatre full of people that have been greatly affected by cancer, including Lexi, then surprise them with a video from some of the cast and crew. We will be documenting it all, so hopefully, we can bring some joy and surprises.

They continued:

Our end goal for the series as a whole is to build a large enough community where we can do awesome stuff like this for other people. As an example, we’re helping a young Stage 4 cancer patient with his bucket list and one of the things he wants to do is Meet The Rock…we plan on building a WWE ring in our back yard as an attempt to raise some viral awareness.

Directed by Joe and Anthony Russo, Avengers: Endgame is expected to star Robert Downey Jr., Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Benedict Cumberbatch, Don Cheadle, Tom Holland, Chadwick Boseman, Paul Bettany, Elizabeth Olsen, Anthony Mackie, Sebastian Stan, Danai Gurira, Letitia Wright, Dave Bautista, Zoe Saldana, Paul Rudd, Jeremy Renner, Brie Larson, Josh Brolin and Chris Pratt.

Fans will get to see if the heroes can tip the scales back in their favour when Avengers: Endgame premieres in theatres on April 26th.
