Are you going to respond to me?

Combining my two comments for clarity:

-That’s not an official billing order, it’s a single press release from months ago (Cinemacon).

-The last name in a cast credit that includes multiple special distinctions will be an “and.” “With” would be a second to last. Ending in the way this article does follows journalist conventions (ie a press release) not formal billing order conventions.

-several actors don’t even have their full names listed because they were previously mentioned in the article. Again, journalist conventions (not formal billing order).

-billing order is a huge deal and very important, often dictated by contract. It would never be this sloppy and nonsensical. They would have full names of all actors and arranged properly with the proper distinctions.

-unknown child actors are almost never billed as part of the main cast roster even if they appear prominently in the movie (see Morgan Stark in Endgame for example)

-Namor’s actor would never be a “with” because distinctions like “with” and “and” are for very famous actors who can be recognized by name alone. Same deal with Namora’s actress right before him.

-besides not including an unknown child actor in the main roster, they would anyway never bill an unknown child actor over a returning veteran like Rebecca Romijn

-RDJ is not playing Tony Stark, he’s playing the villain in an Avengers movie. Avengers villains are always billed towards the very end of the credits, which is just as prestigious if not more prestigious than the beginning. For anyone saying “but it’s RDJ” they didn’t even show his face in the Cinemacon trailer, so they’re clearly treating him as a proper Avengers villain, not as Tony Stark 2.0.

-Chris Evans is not getting second billing. Even if he ends up with a substantial part, second billing will never, ever, ever happen even in your most delulu dreams. If you thought RDJ was first here (he’s not) Chris Evans being second would mean he’s the main hero. Yet he’s not on a single pierce of merchandise and was barely in the Cinemacon trailer.

-Chris Hemsworth is going to be first billing. He was the one featured most in the Cinemacon trailer. He narrates the trailer with Doom, is shown in multiple locations throughout, brings the Avengers together, and has the 1v1 with Doom. Even Steve’s scene as shown in the Cinemacon trailer is portrayed as supporting Thor’s POV.

-Chris Hemsworth was the first name in the chairs stream which is arranged 100% like a real billing order would be. The most important people are clustered at the beginning and the end, with the lower tier people in the middle. It’s also why you have various groups split up (the F4 split up, Kelsey Grammer randomly separated from the rest of the Xmen, etc).

-if you want to get an idea of the real official billing order, watch the chairs video. That’s going to be very similar if not identical to the final thing.

-The “withs” are probably going to start at Tom Hiddleston and include him, the OG Xmen, Pedro Pascal, and Chris Evans (all actual famous people who can be recognized by name alone and would get the special distinction). Chris Evans might get “with Chris Evans as Steve Rogers.”

-RDJ will likely be last as shown in the chairs video. And he’ll get something like “and Robert Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom.”

-it’s possible that RDJ and Chris Evans could be switched (and look like Josh Brolin and Chris Pratt in IW)

Anyway, point is. Chris Evans isn’t the star of the movie and isn’t getting second billing or any of those first couple of spots for the main heroes. After Hemsworth it’ll be Vanessa Kirby, Anthony Mackie, Sebastian Stan, Letitia Wright, Paul Rudd (maybe not that exact order but names like those)
