This year’s CinemaCon was a big day for MCU fans, as the first trailer for Avengers: Doomsday was screened, featuring the first look at Robert Downey Jr.‘s Doctor Doom.
Director Joe Russo said Doctor Doom is better than Thanos, stating, “Victor Von Doom is the greatest Marvel villain of all time. Yes, he is greater than Thanos.”
In the Avengers: Doomsday trailer, Thor attacks Doctor Doom with Stormbreaker, but Doom stops it with just one hand. In another scene, Namor parts the ocean like Moses.
- Shang-Chi fights Gambit.
- Thor and Steve Rogers reunite.
