Over the past week, details about Marvel Studios plans to market Avengers: Doomsday have slowly emerged. While it’s been known for some time that the studio planned to attach a teaser trailer to Avatar: Fire and Ash–which hits theaters this Thursday evening–and while that remains true, it turns out the studio is taking a very unique approach in its marketing rollout.
Industry insider Daniel Richtman revealed that Marvel has cut FOUR different teasers for Avengers: Doomsday, with a new one being released theatrically on a weekly basis. Now thanks to Cryptic HD Quality–one of the most consistently accurate sources for trailer information–a description of the first teaser has made its way online.
Following a little dispute with My Time To Shine Hello, Cryptic revealednthat the first teaser feature footage of Steve Rogers riding a motorcycle and then arriving at what during production was referred to as the “Luke Cage” house where it is revealed he and Peggy have a young son. Text then appears on the screen that reads “Steve Rogers will return in Avengers: Doomsday” ahead of the film’s release date and a “Doomsday countdown clock.”
Oh, interesting, so they switched the order. Doom was supposed to go first. Okay, no reason for me to hide it then, or people would think I was BSing.

The four ‘trailers’ aren’t really trailers, they’re four short scenes, each focusing on a different character. The one with Steve was originally supposed to be the third, but it looks like it’s going to be the first now. It shows Steve riding home on a bike. He has a baby boy. There’s a tagline that reads ‘Steve Rogers will return in Avengers: Doomsday’ followed by ‘December 2026’ and then a countdown.
Since they changed the order, I’m ASSUMING Thor will be the second one now.
In addition to the description of the first teaser, Cryptic HD Quality also revealed that two of the remaining three teasers will feature Thor and, of course, Doctor Doom, leaving fans to theorize and speculate on what character(s) will be featured in the fourth teaser. Given that the three known teasers feature actors from the Infinity Saga–even if Robert Downey Jr. is playing a new role–perhaps Tom Hiddleston‘s Loki will be featured…or perhaps not.
