The “Avengers: Doomsday” Trailer Is Finally Here – But Fans Can’t Decide If It’s A Marvel Triumph Or “A Mess”
by Becca Monaghan · BuzzFeedStop what you’re doing: The new trailer for Avengers: Doomsday has officially dropped – and the reactions are coming in thick and fast.
After months of speculation, Marvel Studios has finally given fans what they’ve been waiting for: a full-length trailer for Avengers: Doomsday.
Featuring glimpses of Steve Rogers, Thor, Fantastic Four, and Doctor Doom, the trailer has already sent Marvel fans into a frenzy.
Set to hit cinemas on 18 December (the same day as Dune: Part Three), Avengers: Doomsday will unite characters from across the Marvel universe, with Robert Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom alongside Chris Hemsworth’s Thor, Anthony Mackie’s Captain America, Pedro Pascal’s Mister Fantastic, Letitia Wright’s Shuri – and plenty more.
The latest look follows Marvel’s teaser rollout in December, when the studio released four separate previews during screenings of Avatar: Fire and Ash, each focusing on a different group of characters.
Watch it here:
Despite the trailer already dominating conversations online, Marvel fans are split – with some calling it a triumphant return and others left "feeling nothing". Ouch.

That Avengers trailer is so funny because it’s literally just Things Happening with no buildup, there’s no momentum or anything to carry you to a feeling of this being THE movie like Infinity War’s trailer, it’s just Shit Happens, because that’s what Doomsday is gonna be

Avengers Doomsday literally tries to sell the same stuff that has happened 4 main movies ago.

I liked the Avengers Doomsday trailer, I think it looks good visually, I’m glad we’re seeing Captain America, the F4, OG X-Men, New Avengers, Shang-Chi & more return but it didn’t move me the same way another teaser for December did pic.twitter.com/CE6ZEqrj9v

Avengers: Doomsday trailer is here but the hype isn't the same as Endgame, and shit doesn't really make much sense to me. Why is Thor on his Infinity War look? And Cap's return ruined the closure he got in Endgame. 🥀 https://t.co/jIaKJd2nlE

I dunno, I normally love this stuff, but the Avengers Doomsday trailer was a little bit underwhelming. Probably doesn't help the plot has been spoiled 10x over...

Only takeaway from the Avengers Doomsday trailer is that we're supposed to take Thor seriously after he's been acting like a blithering idiot since the middle of Endgame. Please, Doom, waste him first.😜

i remember when the avengers infinity war trailer came out and i was losing my mind over it and now i see this trailer and all i can think is just "looks alright i guess"
the amount of steam the mcu has lost in that meantime is actually crazy https://t.co/r99F06bFQL
