The first trailer for Avengers: Doomsday is now on YouTube, meaning you don't have to go and see Avatar: Fire & Ash for your first glimpse of the next big Marvel event.
The video is just below – I won't say anything about what you'll find in it here, so you can get the full experience.

The trailer is entirely focused on Chris Evans' Steve Rogers, Captain America himself, first hinting at him through glimpses on this motorbike, before showing the house that's familiar to people who've seen the end of Avengers: Endgame a million times (me), and then Steve holding a baby.
I think we will assume this is his baby, and that Captain America has not turned to kidnapping in his theoretical retirement years.
It ends with a statement that's something of an open secret to any Marvel fans paying attention online: Steve Rogers will return in Avengers: Doomsday.
I say his "theoretical retirement years," because it's fair to say I have mixed feelings about poor Steve being dragged back into the Marvel movies.
Steve – and Chris Evans' performance – were the single best thing about the Infinity Saga and the whole wildly successful first big era of the MCU, in my opinion. And the way that Endgame centers him and then concludes his story is crucial to why I find that movie to be a five-star masterpiece.
