The Russo Brothers are going live. On Friday, the official Instagram account for Avengers: Endgame directors Joe and Anthony Russo introduced Russo Bros. Pizza Film School, an upcoming Instagram Live series featuring movie recommendations and discussions with the filmmaking pair.
“Like a lot of you, our families have been watching movies together during quarantine,” the post read. “And these family movie nights have inspired us to start sharing some of our favorite classics with all of you. For the next few weeks we’re going to post a #MovieoftheWeek, the movies that had the greatest influence on us growing up. The movies that made us want to be directors.”
