4th Avengers: Doomsday Teaser Is a Shocker, Doesn’t Show Doctor Doom

Marvel Studios is strategically revealing its heroes ahead of Avengers: Doomsday, but a new report states that the film’s legendary villain, Doctor Doom, will not be seen in the 4th teaser trailer. This comes after the first teaser featuring Captain America was already released.

Doctor Doom is not the focus of fourth Avengers: Doomsday teaser

According to a rumor shared by entertainment journalist Jeff Sneider, Doctor Doom will not be in any of the four Avengers: Doomsday teasers currently planned. This approach has surprised fans, especially since Robert Downey Jr. is being positioned as the face of the film.

Instead of a Doom-centric reveal, the fourth Avengers: Doomsday teaser is rumored to focus on the Fantastic Four and Wakanda. Sneider shared, “I am told that the fourth teaser is not Doom. I am told that the fourth teaser is the Fantastic Four and the Wakandan’s.” Known scooper My Time To Shine Hello echoed this on X (formerly Twitter), stating, “The 4th teaser for Doomsday will now have Shuri and Ben Grimm. The Doom-focused teaser is no more.”

Despite Doctor Doom’s reported absence from all four teasers, he suggested the villain’s influence will still be felt indirectly, particularly those featured being the ones who will fight him.

However, Marvel Studios is reportedly holding back Doom’s first on-screen reveal for a later stage of marketing. “As far as like these first four I am told Doom’s not in them, they are waiting,” Sneider said.

Furthermore, before the Fantastic Four and Wakanda-focused teaser, the 3rd Avengers: Doomsday teaser is expected to feature the X-Men. Sneider explained that the rollout follows a character-driven structure, with Captain America first, Thor second, and the X-Men positioned next.

He said, “So the second trailer I think is Thor like you said. The third trailer is X Men.” He further clarified that the teaser will not introduce MCU versions of the mutants but will instead feature Fox-era X-Men characters returning to the screen.

Avengers: Doomsday is releasing on December 18, 2026, with Secret Wars following on December 17, 2027.
