Marvel has finally released the first trailer for Avengers 4, now officially titled Avengers:Endgame. The film is the fourth and final chapter of the Avengers film franchise and the capstone of the inaugural era of superhero movies set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
The trailer shows the aftermath of the Avengers: Infinity War, as we see the heroes that Thanos didn’t vaporize — Iron Man, Captain America, Black Widow, and Thor, among others — begin to come to terms with what happened when half of all life disappeared from the planet.
The trailer also shows some familiar faces who weren’t part of Infinity War, like Hawkeye.
Notably absent are giant fight scenes or Captain Marvel, the photon-wielding space commander who is expected to make her Avengers debut in Avengers: Endgame and help save the day (Captain Marvel is getting her own movie, but that will be set in the 90s before the events of Endgame and Infinity War). But rest assured, there’s a plan, as Black Widow and Cap tell each other, and the fate of Earth is riding on it.
Directed by the Russo brothers Avengers: Endgame will see Earth’s Mightiest Heroes come back together (and back from the dust) to fight Thanos once again and, as the movie’s title implies, finish the story that began in Infinity War and the fate of the Avengers. The film will mark the culmination of 11 years of Marvel moviemaking, and portends to be the end for some of Marvel’s flagship actors, including Chris Evans.
Avengers: Endgame is scheduled to open in theaters on May 3, 2019.
