\n\tRobert Downey Jr.<\/a> is ready to bring doom to Marvel<\/a>\u2018s Avengers<\/a>. <\/p>\n

\n\tDisney<\/a> has released the trailer<\/a> for directors Joe Russo<\/a> and Anthony Russo<\/a>\u2018s Avengers: Doomsday<\/a>, set to hit theaters Dec. 18 (watch, below). The movie includes an extensive list of Marvel superheroes facing off against Doctor Doom, played by Robert Downey Jr., who\u00a0is known for his previous Marvel Cinematic Universe<\/a> role as Tony Stark, aka Iron Man.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe trailer, which first debuted at CinemaCon in April, gives the first look at Downey\u2019s Doctor Doom<\/a> in his mask. Avengers: Doomsday is expected to be among the projects teased during the Marvel Studios panel that Kevin Feige will lead at San Diego Comic-Con<\/a> this Saturday.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cPut aside your petty squabbles. Presume nothing except this: If you return, you will return as brothers and sisters,\u201d Chris Hemsworth<\/a>\u2018s Thor tells his fellow heroes in the footage about the threat of Doom. \u201cMark my words: We are going to need a miracle.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tA different moment in the footage shows Chris Evans<\/a> surprising Hemsworth, who exclaims, \u201cIt\u2019s not possible,\u201d as Evans grabs Thor\u2019s hammer.<\/p>\n

\n\tPreviously released teasers from the film have included looks at Black Panther<\/a> (Letitia Wright),\u00a0Captain America<\/a>\u00a0(Evans), Thor<\/a> (Hemsworth) and the\u00a0X-Men\u2019s Cyclops<\/a>\u00a0(James Marsden). Downey\u2019s return as Doom was not revealed in those teasers, although he appeared briefly in last year\u2019s\u00a0Fantastic Four: First Steps without his face being shown. <\/p>\n

\n\tThe Russos helm Avengers: Doomsday from a script by Michael Waldron and Stephen McFeely. The directing duo return to lead an MCU feature for the first time since 2019\u2019s Avengers: Endgame, which became the second-highest-grossing movie of all time. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cHe\u2019s not simply a villain \u2014 he\u2019s one of the most complex Marvel characters,\u201d Joe Russo had teased from the CinemaCon stage. \u201cHe\u2019s always three moves ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tAt the event, Downey told the crowd, \u201cI couldn\u2019t have imagined reuniting with this amazing team \u2014 let alone as a new character.\u201d <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Robert Downey Jr. is ready to bring doom to Marvel\u2018s Avengers.
