According to The Hollywood Reporter, the first teaser for Avengers: Doomsday will be shown during Avatar: Fire and Ash, also known as “Avatar 3”, screenings in December 2025. This is a great way to market their movie as it can generate a lot of hype for one of the most anticipated movies in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Smartly using the enormous audience of James Cameron’s blockbuster movie is a good and strategic marketing plan.
With a release date of December 18, 2026, Avengers: Doomsday is expected to be a historic film event that unites heroes from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, including the Avengers, X-Men, Fantastic Four, and Wakanda. The plot involves multiple universes, and fans can expect the comeback of many beloved characters and also includes new characters like Gambit.
This movie is considered the biggest movie of the MCU that will involve fast-paced action sequences, strong storylines and a lot of drama. By giving fans their first glimpse of this historic crossover, the teaser may set the ground for an amazing Phase Six finale.
But it's crucial to remember that nothing is verified. The official release date of the teaser has not been disclosed by either 20th Century Studios or Marvel Studios. One of the most discussed details is the potential reappearance of Robert Downey Jr. as Victor von Doom—Doctor Doom himself—instead of Tony Stark. By including him, the Marvel Cinematic Universe would undergo a significant sea change and establish him as a key character for the franchise's future.
