What a time to be a Marvel fan. Off the back of the VisionQuest finale, the excitement for Avengers: Doomsday has skyrocketed (and not just because it's the next chapter in the Marvel Cinematic Universe!). The Disney Plus series closed out on such a high that it instantly redirected fans' attention to the larger-than-life crossover film that will see Earth's Mightiest Heroes battle Doctor Doom (Robert Downey Jr.) with the fate of the multiverse on the line.
Before its December release, however, there will be one more trailer released to give fans another look at what to expect. Now, we have a potential update about when that could be, as two days have emerged in the aftermath of the VisionQuest finale as likely release dates.
The third Avengers: Doomsday trailer is expected within the next week
Avengers: Doomsday's highly anticipated third trailer is expected to make its presence felt within the next week, as multiple insiders have reported a window between now and November 19. However, a number of potential dates have opened up - with one specifically jumping out due to its imminence. And that date is none other than Thursday, November 12.
Industry insider Daniel Richtman, has revealed that Disney will be releasing a new trailer on that day. While it's always important to take insider scoops with a pinch of salt, Richtman has a proven track record of success and always manages to reveal dates for major trailer drops ahead of their release. And while this doesn't necessarily suggest that the trailer in question will be from Marvel Studios, there is at least some evidence to suggest that it will be a big day for Avengers: Doomsday's promo train regardless.
See, Empire Magazine have announced via social media that "Doom is coming" in green text, obviously teasing something Avengers: Doomsday / Doctor Doom-related. Now, there's a strong chance that the iconic magazine will simply be unveiling a new look at the movie via its new cover story (along with some new stills), its release coinciding with this expected trailer drop from Disney is interesting. Does Marvel Studios plan on doubling down on its release strategy, unveiling a brand new trailer to go along with any Empire exclusives?

It would be a little odd if Disney were to redirect attention to a separate release on the same day that the Doomsday marketing begins ramping up, so it's understandable that fans are hopeful that this might set the stage for a brand new trailer. We know it's coming and, after the renewed conversation surrounding the movie after the epic VisionQuest finale, it would be the right time to unveil it.
That being said, if Marvel were to give fans who haven't seen recent MCU projects a little more time to watch them before releasing the next trailer, there is another potential release date on the horizon. Multiple insiders have suggested Monday, November 16, as the possible choice and there is evidence to suggest that this one is the more likely of the two.
For starters, Marvel Studios has a history of releasing new trailers that aren't tied to conventions on a Monday morning. We have seen this in the past with the likes of Deadpool and Wolverine, Thunderbolts*, and even the first Avengers: Doomsday trailer earlier this year. It would also mark one month to the UK release date of the movie (and be just two days out from the one-month mark for the US release date), allowing the studio to mark that last significant milestone before its arrival.
Moreover, Avengers Endgame: Encore - the re-release of the 2019 juggernaut Avengers: Endgame that features brand new footage specifically designed to set up Avengers: Doomsday - finally arrives on Disney Plus this Friday, November 13. Releasing a new trailer on the Monday after that would allow fans who didn't see the new scenes in theaters to consume it over the weekend (along with the VisionQuest finale), giving them the chance to be fully prepared for the next sneak peek should it arrive on that day.
The anticipation for the new trailer is already through the roof. Both the original teaser and the Doctor Doom Special Look trailer were received well by audiences, but their relatively back-to-back releases during convention season this summer has made the wait for the next one surprisingly long. But the anicipation goes beyond that. According to insider James Mack, the new footage will break the internet - which, after the VisionQuest finale managed to do that too, is really saying something.
We'll not spoil anything for you but that episode, titled "Forever", confirmed that the Disney Plus series is more relevant to Avengers: Doomsday than any of us thought it would be. And it's no surprise that Marvel have waited until after its release to unveil this next trailer.
Regardless of which exact date the trailer ends up surfacing, the fact remains that it's expected to be released ahead of Grand Theft Auto VI on November 19, which will undoubtedly break the internet in its own capacity. That makes the week leading up to it prime real estate for Marvel to make the most of.
