Avengers: Doomsday Trailer: Robert Downey Jr.'s Doctor Doom Declares War On The MCU [D23]

by · /Film

It's been seven years since Earth's Mightiest Heroes last teamed up in 2019's "Avengers: Endgame," which felt like a closing chapter for the Marvel Cinematic Universe at the time. However, a few members of the old gang (along with a whole lot of newcomers who've been introduced to the MCU since then) will join forces for a multiversal adventure in "Avengers: Doomsday," which once again features directors Joe and Anthony Russo at the helm. Marvel Studios has already unveiled a handful of previews for the film, including a trailer featuring out first proper look at Robert Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom. Now, to further whet our appetites, the House of Ideas has played a trailer at the 2026 D23 Expo and released it online, as you can see above.

Among the characters slated to appear in "Doomsday" are (here we go!) Chris Evans as Steve Rogers, Chris Hemsworth as Thor, Paul Rudd as Scott Lang/Ant-Man, Anthony Mackie as Sam Wilson/Captain America, Tom Hiddleston as Loki, Simu Liu as Shang-Chi, and Letitia Wright as Shuri/Black Panther. The film will also feature the MCU's Fantastic Four (Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards, Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm, Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm, and Ebon Moss-Bacharach as Ben Grimm), the Thunderbolts, aka the New Avengers (led by Florence Pugh as Yelena Belova/Black Widow), and several actors reprising their roles from Fox's "X-Men" movies, along with many, many others. On top of all that, the movie will further set the stage for next year's "Avengers: Secret Wars" ... and Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige is hinting that "Doomsday" will have quite the cliffhanger ending to tee up the conclusion to the MCU's Multiverse Saga.
