The Marvel Cinematic Universe leaks seem like persevering with, this time with the second, Thor-focused Avengers: Doomsday trailer allegedly hitting the web.
Quite a lot of Twitter / X accounts revealed a French-language model of the alleged trailer, though a lot of these posts now have removing notices on account of copyright claims.
Warning! Potential spoilers for Avengers: Doomsday and its second teaser trailer observe:
The trailer reveals Chris Hemsworth as soon as once more enjoying Thor, this time with the short-haired look from the much-loved and vastly profitable Thor Ragnarok. It focuses on Thor’s relationship along with his adopted baby, Love (Gorr the God Butcher’s resurrected daughter in Thor: Love and Thunder).
Assuming this leaked trailer is correct, what we’ve seen up to now of Avengers: Doomsday does appear to have a heavy concentrate on youngsters. The Unbelievable 4: First Steps ended with Robert Downey Jr.’s Physician Doom showing to kidnap Franklin Richards. The Steve Rogers / Captain America teaser for Avengers: Doomsday that emerged final week reveals Chris Evans’ character holding a child, presumably his baby with Peggy Carter.
What does this all imply? The leaked trailer reveals Love protected and sound at residence with Thor, so there’s no suggestion right here that Physician Doom is after her, too. Followers definitely have their theories, one in every of which is that Marvel Studios is organising the Subsequent Avengers indirectly. But it surely may simply be nothing.
In the meantime, the prayer Thor delivers within the leaked trailer has after all been translated into English. It suggests Thor is asking his father (Odin, performed by Anthony Hopkins within the MCU) for the power to defeat a brand new enemy and return to Love. It’s definitely a darker tone than we’ve seen from Thor’s latest MCU appearances, and a few are questioning if they need to put together themselves for the character dying.
This isn’t the primary time followers have advised Thor will chunk the mud in Avengers: Doomsday. In Could, Chris Hemsworth launched a Thor tribute video titled ‘Thank You! The Legacy of Thor,’ that included clips of the actor as Thor going way back to an audition tape proper as much as his efficiency in 2022’s Thor: Love and Thunder. Some followers took it as a farewell video, or a wave goodbye to Thor. Hemsworth later insisted the video was “a second of gratitude, and it wasn’t the rest.”
Talking to Self-importance Truthful, Hemsworth mentioned he turned too wacky in Love and Thunder and the movie suffered consequently, maybe particularly following Thor: Ragnarok, which turned considerably of a breakout success for the character by including extra comedy components.
“I acquired caught up within the improv and the wackiness, and I turned a parody of myself,” Hemsworth mentioned. “I did not stick the touchdown.” He cannot forgive himself for the efficiency, Self-importance Truthful mentioned, so feels he owes followers one other movie. Might Avengers: Doomsday or Secret Wars rely as that movie, or would Thor 5 be extra applicable as a goodbye?
Disney reportedly deliberate 4 separate trailers to be proven with Avatar 3 over the course of 4 weeks, in a transfer designed to encourage repeat viewings and preserve audiences entertained with a sequence of huge reveals. The expectation is the Thor trailer will hit theaters later this week, with hypothesis pointing to a Physician Doom-themed trailer subsequent week.
Avengers: Doomsday hits theaters December 18, 2026.
