The latest trailer for “Avengers: Doomsday” has created a divide among Marvel fans – some are thrilled, while others are disappointed.
Ever since the first full trailer for Avengers: Doomsday was released, fans have been buzzing about a specific scene. Many think the trailer might have accidentally shown one of the movie’s last moments. The trailer features Earth’s heroes – including the Avengers, Fantastic Four, and X-Men – getting ready to battle Doctor Doom. But a quick shot of Johnny Storm carrying an injured Sue Storm, both surrounded by a bright light, has really caught the attention of Marvel enthusiasts.
When one person adjusted the image to be darker and shared it online, many people began to notice what looked like debris from an explosion in the background. This sparked speculation that the scene might show the end of the movie, drawing comparisons to a devastating Earth-616 ending in an Avengers comic book series by Jonathan Hickman where the planet was destroyed.
Neb, the X user who first proposed this idea, believes a recent scene may be based on the ending of a storyline by writer Jonathan Hickman. The brief clip from the new Avengers: Doomsday trailer appears to show a final ‘Incursion’ – an event that destroys Earth-616 in the comics after the Avengers choose to sacrifice their own reality rather than destroy another universe.
The rumor has caused a mix of reactions from fans – some are annoyed Marvel might have revealed too much about the plot of Avengers: Doomsday in the trailer, while others are heartbroken at the thought of Earth-616 being destroyed and losing characters and stories we’ve followed for years within the MCU.
Even though it would be sad to see the current Marvel Cinematic Universe end with Avengers: Doomsday, it could also be a chance for a completely fresh beginning. Starting over would allow Marvel to explore new universes and tell brand new stories. This idea fits with recent statements from Marvel Studios about their plans extending to 2042 and their desire to introduce a new generation of characters.
Avengers: Doomsday will premiere in most theaters on December 18, 2026, with some showing it a day earlier on December 17, 2026.
