Stephen Colbert's 'Avengers: Endgame' parody of the RNC is a lot
Watch Next

If there's one thing the staff of The Late Show seem to enjoy, it's coming up with movie-themed parody intros for Colbert's monologues.

They did it for the Democratic National Convention, and now it's the RNC's turn.

In the Avengers: Endgame-themed clip above we witness the return of a purple-faced, golf club-wielding Trump/Thanos, who marshals a whole host of dark forces to do his bidding.

Mitch McConnell is Red Skull, Melania Trump is Hela, and Eric Trump pops up right at the end in what appears to be a cheap Halloween costume, proudly proclaiming, "I'm Batman, dad!"

Oh dear.
