The Russo Brothers and Avengers stars are teaming up for a Joe Biden fundraiser
Joe and Anthony Russo are teaming up with several Avengers stars to raise money for Joe Biden’s presidential campaign.
The Avengers are assembling again, but this time it’s not to defeat Thanos. This Tuesday, Joe and Anthony Russo will join forces with Marvel Cinematic Universe stars Chris Evans, Mark Ruffalo,, Scarlett Johansson, Don Cheadle, Paul Rudd, and Zoe Saldana to raise money for Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden through a virtual “Voters Assemble” event.
According to Deadline, the virtual fundraiser is scheduled for October 20 at 6:45 p.m. ET and will feature fun and games with our favorite superhero stars. There will be a trivia session and a Q&A, both of which will no doubt be entertaining to watch, if only for the chemistry between some of our favorite actors and actresses.
To tune in for the event, viewers are required to donate at least $1 — which isn’t an incredibly hefty price, all things considered. More information on how to watch “Voters Assemble” can be found on Biden’s website.
This is one of several celebrity-led events the Biden campaign has used to raise money and spread awareness. Both the Parks and Rec cast and The Princess Bride cast recently held their own virtual events to raise money for the Democratic party as well — though there’s something special about onscreen superheroes attempting to do some heroics in real life.
Samuel L. Jackson, who plays Nick Fury in the MCU — and has his own show headed to Disney+ in the semi-near future — also teamed up with the Biden campaign on a video intended to shed light on voter suppression and how it disproportionately impacts Black voters. He emphasized the importance of voting in the video, a sentiment his co-stars are bound to repeat tomorrow evening.
And with the Avengers themselves telling us to get out and vote, how can we possibly fail to do our civic duty?
