PASADENA, Calif. – Marvel Studios is so tight-lipped about this year's superhero epic "Avengers: Endgame" that it's not even telling its own people anything about it.

Taika Waititi, who directed and appeared in "Thor: Ragnarok," told USA TODAY that he "can't get anything out of them."

"I haven’t seen it, so I don’t know even what happens. They keep their cards so close to their chests," Waititi said. "But from what I’ve heard, it wraps up everything in a really great way. It feels like the fans are getting rewarded for hanging around for 10 years and watching all these films. Because the more you know about the characters and the stories and stuff, the more satisfying this film will be."

The director, promoting FX's "What We Do in the Shadows," a vampire mockumentary series based on his and Jemaine Clement's 2015 film, also weighed in on one of the biggest controversies around "Endgame": Captain America's beard.

When the trailer for "Endgame" debuted and Cap (Chris Evans) was clean-shaven after sporting a popular beard in 2018's "Infinity War," many fans were distraught. Waititi falls on the pro-beard end of the spectrum.

"I really liked that beard. I’m sad the beard left us. It looks really good. It was a nice sleek beard."
