For nearly a year now, fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe have been trying to puzzle out where the story is going in the aftermath of Avengers: Infinity War. But now a new special look trailer has arrived for Avengers: Endgame, the franchise’s 22nd movie, on the very same morning that tickets for the movie went on sale. Barely a minute long, the teaser provides some of the most thrilling and substantial Endgame footage we’ve seen yet. Want to know how the trailer might clue us in to what actually happens in the movie? Here’s a potentially spoiler-filled look at all the small details you may have missed in the special look trailer for Avengers: Endgame.
Everyone knows Endgame is revving up for a rematch between the Avengers and Thanos, a grudge match which the new trailer seems to explicitly show. But what if that rematch happens sooner than we think? It’s very likely.
A mix of rumors and reports indicate that the marketing for Avengers: Endgame features footage from only the first 15 or 20 minutes of the movie, keeping the secrets of its story held close to the vest until the movie has rolled out in theaters. While the “15-to-20 minute” window that’s been reported doesn’t seem exactly right, Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige has said in an interview with MTV News that those reports are still “somewhat accurate.” If he’s being truthful, it implies that the trailer footage of the Avengers facing off against Thanos again won’t come at the end of the movie, but instead somewhere in the first act.
This theory tracks with multiple purported leaks from the movie that have claimed the Avengers will team up to fight Thanos in space somewhere in the beginning of Endgame. It’s possible that the team will even defeat him in this battleβ¦ but in a way that prevents the fallen from being revived.
If it feels wild to you, consider that Infinity War kicked off with Hulk fighting Thanos within the first five minutes of the film. So if you think it’s unlikely that this movie will hit the ground running with its plot, think again. These are going to be 3 dense hours.
Watch to learn more about small details you missed in the Endgame special look trailer!
