One thing I noticed about the poster is that, like the marketing, they're keeping the snapped heroes out of the main credits list entirely. And as far as I'm concerned, that's gotta be some sort of red herring. Sure, they would want to give the OG team a last hurrah, but if they're going to pass the torch to the new heroes, then those heroes (Ant-Man and Captain Marvel notwithstanding since they're still alive) NEED to have an equal amount of screentime, not just appear in the climax or something like that. I'm not a big proponent of fan theories, but this would be a perfect way to utilize the Soul Stone theory. Essentially, I believe Endgame will have two parallel narratives: one involving the surviving heroes travelling the Quantum Realm to try and undo the damage, and the other involving the snapped heroes locating the lost souls within the Soul Stone while being haunted by memories of actually-dead people like Loki, Gamora, Crossbones, and Vision. And since we know that Tony and Nebula will be back fairly quickly thanks to the newest trailer (so much for spoilers), they can freely have these two narratives while avoiding having a third take up more time (as with Infinity War - not that Thor's story was bad or anything). Think of it like the LOTR sequels, with the surviving heroes being Aragorn's story and the snapped heroes being Frodo's story.
