On September 13, 2019, Joe Russo and ESPN's Matthew Berry announced the AGBO Superhero Fantasy Football league, a charity competition featuring 12 high-profile superhero actors.
The league, named after The Russo Brothers' production company, AGBO, has a $100,000 prize on the table, with each actor competing to win for their chosen charity.
Chris Pratt, Ryan Reynolds, and Chris Evans are among the participants, who also include Robert Downey Jr., Chris Hemsworth, Tom Holland, Michael B. Jordan, Anthony Mackie, Elizabeth Olsen, Paul Rudd, and Miles Teller.
"I'm playing Evans this week... Chris Evans. He's an actor. He had a short stint as Captain America, but I think it didn't really work and they ended up killing him off," Chris Pratt said in a video posted to ESPN's YouTube channel.
"I'm looking at this list of jokers in the league.... just saying. Just saying," Chris Evans responded.
The league members will issue updates throughout the season, and fans can expect more trash-talking videos from the participants.
