The criticisms started to roll over the internet soon as a journalist from San Francisco Katie Antoniou posted her feedbacks towards MCU's most awaited movie Avengers: End Game stars poster. Interestingly, the post is now deleted on Instagram, however, we are able to bring you her statement which goes,

"I love The Avengers. I loved Captain Marvel. But these photos have made me so mad. Spot the difference? Women: literally no facial lines — foreheads completely airbrushed. Men: every single one (even the gods/aliens/people who don't physically age) you can see lines on their foreheads and there's about a dozen more characters I haven't included, all the same."

Besides, mixed reviews are seen from the audiences, some even supported commenting it as a fantasy, not realty where everything needs to make sense.
