Footage debuted at Comic-Con over the summer, but Marvel doesn’t usually repeat that footage in official trailers, so you can probably expect to see a different cut of what was shown to fans at that event. This teaser confirms the Avengers: Infinity War trailer will be released tomorrow, Wednesday, and it’ll be interesting to see what it brings us. The films were shot back to back so as to cull together the massive cast, which includes almost every major character from the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Joe Russo and Anthony Russo, the filmmakers behind Captain America: The Winter Soldier and Captain America: Civil War directed both Infinity War and Avengers 4, the latter of which is still in the midst of production.
Alongside the untitled Avengers 4, this marks a definitive conclusion for the Marvel Cinematic Universe as we know it- characters will die, actors will depart the MCU for good, and nothing will be the same. Indeed, Infinity War is the beginning of a culmination event.
Instead of offering up a tease of what’s in store for fans in Infinity War, Marvel instead opts to put the focus entirely on the fans, as we watch online fan reactions to trailers from previous Marvel Studios movies. Various Marvel superheroes have already teamed up in crossover epics like The Avengers and Avengers: Age of Ultron, but Infinity War is poised to be the biggest and baddest of those crossovers yet.Īvengers: Infinity War (Part I) hits theaters on April 27, 2018.Marvel Studios has released the first trailer teaser for Avengers: Infinity War, but you won’t find any footage from the film in here. On the other side of the spectrum is Peter Parker (Tom Holland) introducing himself as such to Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch), before stuttering and going with the slightly more impressive “Spider-Man.” (Also: Shuri’s here, so, phew, they might actually stand a chance!)ĭirected by the Russo brothers, who also helmed the past two Captain America films, Infinity War represents the culmination of a decade of Marvel moviemaking and the final piece in Marvel Studios’ cinematic plan to create a universe of interlocking, connected superhero movies. We also get a closer look at how bringing together superheroes who are used to being the leads of their own movies might result in some serious ego clashes, like when Guardians of the Galaxy’s Peter “Star-Lord” Quill (Chris Pratt) tells Tony “Iron Man” Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) that his plan is good, “except it sucks.” This new trailer gives us more of a look at the Avengers assembling worldwide, but it still looks like Iron Man has his own team in what appears to be New York City, while Cap and his squad are holding off an invasion in Wakanda. In the first trailer and in the Super Bowl television spot for Infinity War, there was a clear message that the team, however united they are in fighting Thanos (Josh Brolin), is still split.
Thanos is here, and - according to a grim-faced Gamora (Zoe Saldana), remembering destruction past - he’s ready to wipe out “half of humanity.”
