So Marvel had announced earlier this that this trailer would drop on Friday, but I completely forgot it until I saw everyone talking about it on Twitter this morning. We finally learn the sequel’s official name (Endgame), and we see a whole lot going on, even though it might not seem like it. My initial thoughts:
HOLY SHIT I CAN’T WAIT FOR IT TO BE APRIL I NEED TO SEE THIS MOVIE ASAP
Okay, seriously. Here’s what we see:
-Tony Stark in dire straits, stranded in space without food or water, and soon to be no oxygen. I know there’s no way Marvel just lets him die this way, so I’m curious to see how he gets out of this.
-The remaining Avengers trying to regroup at the facility in upstate New York. This is the first time we’ve seen any of the Avengers lose, and it’s definitely going to be interesting to see how they handle loss.
-Basically no Thanos in this trailer. We see his armor and the mangled infinity gauntlet, but that’s it.
-Hawkeye returns, this time as Ronin (not Ronan). He got a new haircut, and he looks incredibly pissed off. He just killed someone with a sword in what appears to be Chinatown somewhere.
-Captain America and Black Widow discussing a plan that, according to Cap, can’t fail because he “doesn’t know what (he’ll) do if it does.” I’m dying to know what this plan entails.
-The return of Ant-Man. When we last saw Scott Lang, he was trapped in the quantum realm after Thanos’ snap took out the entire Pym family while they were running an experiment. It will be cool to see how he managed to get out of the quantum realm in this movie.
That’s all for now. So while we didn’t see a whole lot of action, Marvel gave us enough to think about to hold us over until the next trailer comes out (if they put another one out). Part of me kind of hopes this is the only trailer, because I want to go into this movie as fresh as possible, but part of me is an impatient child who wants more Avengers now.
Luckily for me, the Spider-Man: Far from Home trailer drops tomorrow. I’m curious to see where they go with this trailer, since Spider-Man was snapped away by Thanos (even though we all know he’s coming back). My guess is that it’ll be heavy on Mysterio, especially since Jake Gylenhaal confirmed that he would be playing the character in a video posted to his Instagram earlier this week.
