Last week’s Avengers: Doomsday teaser trailer brought with it definitive confirmation that Chris Evans’ Steve Rogers — aka America’s Ass, aka Captain America — will be returning to take on Robert Downey Jr.’s Doctor Doom in the Russo Brothers’ latest superhero battle royale. But now that we know Cap’s back, let us ask this: are you thirsty for Thor? If the answer to that question is yes (which, let’s face it, it absolutely should be), then feast your eyes on the second Doomsday teaser, which finds Chris Hemsworth’s God of Thunder calling on his father Odin for the strength to layeth the smack down on Doom in the multiversal war to come. Check it out below;

Okay, okay, okay, so there’s actually a fair bit to take in here for a one-minute teaser trailer. Following the heartwarming finale of Thor: Love And Thunder — in which we saw Hemsworth’s Asgardian hero flying into battle alongside his newly adopted daughter, Love (played once again by Hemsworth’s real-life daughter India Rose Hemsworth), he wielding Mjolnir and she Stormbreaker — this new teaser for Doomsday finds Thor alone in a forest, praying to Odin to ask for the strength of the All-Fathers “so that I may fight once more.” With head shaven and Stormbreaker back in hand, it looks like the Russos are bringing Thor back into his Endgame era for Doomsday, casting aside his luscious Love & Thunder locks and art-pop attire for something a little more severe and battle-hardened. What’s more, as we see here, Love is all grown up when we rejoin the God of Thunder in the Avengers’ next outing, and it is Thor’s desire to be with his child — “to return home to her, not as a warrior but as warmth” — that looks to be guiding his journey in Doomsday. He and Steve Rogers both, so it seems.

With a third Avengers: Doomsday trailer expected to drop next week, reportedly centring around the X-Men, and a fourth and final full teaser primed for the week after that if trade whispers prove accurate, the anticipation is definitely building for a truly major MCU event — the likes of which we haven’t honestly seen since Spider-Man: No Way Home almost half a decade ago — when the Russos’ return hits cinemas on 18 December, 2026. But before then, all eyes now turn to next week. To us, our X-Men teaser trailer! (Please, please let those Cyclops scenes be real!)
