Full trailer released, revealing Robert Downey Jr.'s Doctor Doom
July 20, 2026
Marvel Studios released the first full trailer for Avengers: Doomsday online on July 20, 2026 - and it finally puts Robert Downey Jr.’s Victor von Doom on screen. The trailer had premiered for CinemaCon audiences back in April 2026, but this was its first public release.
What’s confirmed in the trailer
- The first on-screen look at Doctor Doom, played by Robert Downey Jr. in a new role - not a Tony Stark return.
- Doom narrates a warning about a multiversal threat.
- Crossover moments between the Avengers, the Fantastic Four, and the X-Men.
- Steve Rogers (Chris Evans) shown wielding Mjolnir.
By the numbers
Early figures reported alongside the launch pointed to an enormous opening for the trailer, and tickets for premium-format “Infinity Vision” screens went on sale the same day. We treat specific view counts and advance-sales figures as reported until they settle, but the headline is clear: this was one of the biggest trailer launches on record.
What it means
After more than a year of teasers that kept Doom off-screen, seeing the villain at last reframes the whole campaign. For the full breakdown of every teaser and the full trailer in order, see the Trailer Hub; for what’s confirmed about the villain, see the Doctor Doom guide.
