Marvel Studios has finally released the first full trailer for Avengers: Doomsday, giving fans their biggest look yet at the blockbuster that will unite heroes from across the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the Fantastic Four and the X-Men against Robert Downey Jr.’s Doctor Doom. The trailer also confirms the return of Chris Evans alongside Chris Hemsworth, Anthony Mackie, Simu Liu, Paul Rudd and dozens of other Marvel heroes, setting the stage for one of the biggest crossover films in Marvel history.
While the film won’t arrive in cinemas until December 2026, the trailer has already sparked speculation about its impact beyond the big screen—particularly within Disney’s Avengers Campus areas around the world.
Although Disney has not announced any new attractions tied directly to Avengers: Doomsday, history suggests the movie could significantly influence the future of these Marvel-themed lands.
Disneyland Resort Could See the Biggest Changes
The most obvious connection is at Disney California Adventure, where Avengers Campus is currently undergoing its largest expansion since opening in 2021.
Construction is well underway on two major attractions: Avengers: Infinity Defense and Stark Flight Lab. Infinity Defense will send guests through multiple Marvel locations as they battle King Thanos, while Stark Flight Lab will feature a new robotic ride system inspired by Tony Stark’s inventions.
With Avengers: Doomsday introducing Doctor Doom as Marvel’s new central villain, many fans are already wondering whether future storylines inside Avengers Campus could evolve beyond the current Multiverse Saga. Disney has repeatedly described Avengers Campus as a living area that evolves alongside the Marvel Cinematic Universe, making it well positioned to incorporate new characters and stories in the years ahead.
Disneyland Paris Could Welcome New Heroes and Villains
At Disney Adventure World in Paris, Avengers Campus remains one of the resort’s headline areas.
Guests can currently experience Avengers Assemble: Flight Force, Spider-Man W.E.B. Adventure, Hero Training Center and numerous encounters with Marvel superheroes throughout the day.
Disneyland Paris has developed a reputation for regularly refreshing its entertainment to reflect the latest Marvel productions. Following previous film releases, new characters have quickly appeared for meet-and-greets and limited-time entertainment. If Doctor Doom proves to be one of Marvel’s next iconic villains, many fans expect him to eventually make appearances alongside the existing Avengers line-up.
The arrival of the Fantastic Four could also provide new opportunities, particularly as Marvel’s First Family is expected to play a major role in the future of the MCU.
Hong Kong Disneyland Already Tells an Ongoing Marvel Story
Hong Kong Disneyland offers a different approach to Marvel than the Avengers Campus areas in California and Paris.
The resort already features Iron Man Experience and Ant-Man and The Wasp: Nano Battle!, while construction continues on a major new Spider-Man attraction that will complete the park’s long-running Marvel expansion.
Rather than existing as a collection of standalone experiences, Hong Kong’s Marvel area follows an ongoing storyline involving S.H.I.E.L.D., Stark Industries and Hydra. That makes it particularly flexible when introducing future MCU developments.
Should Disney decide to expand the area after the release of Avengers: Doomsday, Doctor Doom, the Fantastic Four or even members of the X-Men could all fit naturally into the evolving narrative.
A Wealth of New Characters for Disney Parks
The trailer introduces—or reintroduces—a remarkable collection of characters that are currently absent from Disney’s parks.
Robert Downey Jr.’s transformation into Doctor Doom is perhaps the biggest surprise, but the film also brings together the Fantastic Four, legacy X-Men, Shang-Chi, Loki, the Thunderbolts and many other fan-favourite heroes.
Disney Parks have increasingly responded quickly to major Marvel releases. Characters such as Moon Knight, Ms. Marvel, Deadpool, Wolverine and Werewolf by Night all appeared in Disney Parks shortly after their respective screen debuts.
That makes Avengers: Doomsday one of the richest sources of future entertainment opportunities Disney has had in years.
A New Chapter for Marvel Could Shape the Parks
The trailer makes one thing clear: Marvel Studios is entering an entirely new era. Doctor Doom is replacing Kang as the franchise’s primary villain, while the return of the Russo Brothers and the introduction of the Fantastic Four and X-Men promise to reshape the Marvel Cinematic Universe for years to come.
For Disney’s parks, that presents an equally exciting opportunity.
Avengers Campus was always designed as an area that could grow alongside the films. As new heroes and villains become central to the MCU, Disney has the opportunity to refresh meet-and-greets, stage shows, nighttime entertainment and eventually even attractions to reflect those changes.
Whether that evolution begins with Doctor Doom, the Fantastic Four or another surprise from Avengers: Doomsday, the newly released trailer may offer the first glimpse not only of Marvel’s cinematic future, but also of what guests could eventually experience inside Disney’s Marvel-themed areas around the world.
