Rumors surrounding the movie and its advertising and marketing solely additional muddy issues. Even by MCU requirements, leaks have been frequent and uncorroborated. For each exhausting bit of data we get, akin to Kelsey Grammer speaking a few scene with Beast and Reed Richards that he shot with Pedro Pascal, there’s some AI-generated nonsense or a would-be influencer throwing out hypothesis as information (see: the many individuals sure that the Doomsday trailer would drop final week).
Nonetheless, the next rumors in regards to the trailer appear to have coalesced to the purpose that they appear seemingly, although nonetheless unconfirmed. Marvel will probably be releasing 4 trailers for Doomsday, beginning this Thursday. The primary three are teasers specializing in a selected character, each ending with a countdown, earlier than the discharge of a ultimate, correct trailer for your entire film. The primary two teasers will probably be about Captain America and Thor, whereas the third will probably be about Doom himself.
The countdown motif matches the comedian ebook lead-up to the 2015 Secret Wars occasion. Every of Marvel’s comics printed earlier than July 2015 had a banner studying “Time Runs Out” on the high, constructing rigidity because the Avengers and different heroes tried and failed to save lots of their Earth from rising incursions.
However the resolution to steer with Captain America and Thor veers from the comics. Whereas each definitely play huge roles in each Secret Wars storyline within the comics, they’re much less essential to Doom than the Beyonder, the godlike being who drives the primary two Secret Wars tales from the Eighties, and positively much less so than Reed Richards, Doom’s classical arch-nemesis and the hero of the 2015 Secret Wars.
Rumors recommend that Doom may have a private grudge in opposition to Steve Rogers, maybe one thing involving Cap touring throughout time to switch the Infinity Stones on the finish of Endgame. However that also leaves the query of Thor, and why he would earn Doom’s ire? And what about Tony, does he get a trailer? And isn’t Doom’s complete factor that he hates Reed Richards, a man who hasn’t even been on display screen with him within the MCU but?
Briefly, we in all probability received’t know what the teasers will probably be or what Doomsday will probably be till Marvel formally releases them. Till then, any makes an attempt to see the longer term are doomed.
