Marvel says the quiet part out loud: Endgame Encore trailer promises special look at Doomsday

Avengers: Endgame Encore next month will give you an "exclusive look" at Doomsday

Remember 2019? Yeah. I, too, need to sit down. Just like the Titans football team that Denzel Washington led in Remember the Titans, Marvel Studios would like you to remember 2019's Avengers: Endgame. Or rather, the experience of seeing Endgame in theaters at a time when people actually respected the "no phones allowed" policy in movie theaters. 

Now, Avengers: Endgame will be re-released in theaters next month in a move called Avengers Endgame: Encore. A trailer for the re-release includes a not-so-subtle tag: "Be the first to see an exclusive look at Avengers: Doomsday." Take a look at it below (the trailer, not Doomsday). 

The reason why I asked if you remembered 2019 earlier in this article is that there was a re-release of Endgame in June of that year that included a deleted scene of Hulk saving people from a burning building. While I didn't mind seeing Endgame again in theaters, the deleted scene itself was hilariously underwhelming because the CGI wasn't even completed. So essentially, Hulk appeared in the scene looking like he was in a cutscene of a PS2 game. And after watching a three-hour-long film with immaculate CGI, it was comically jarring. 

The last thing I'd want is for a group of already overworked artists to quickly churn out and render a deleted scene just for the Endgame re-release. In the moment, it was just unexpected. So hopefully, the look at Avengers: Doomsday will look better than the bonus footage from the June 2019 re-release of Endgame. 

Avengers: Endgame Encore will arrive in theaters September 25, 2026.
