A new trailer for Avengers: Doomsday was revealed at Disney’s D23 fan event on Friday, August 15th, revealing an extended look at Robert Downey Jr.’s Doctor Doom and his path of destruction.
“Victor was always the smartest guy in every room. He used to be different,” says Vanessa Kirby’s Sue Storm/Invisible Woman ominously to open the clip. “He used to be kind. He used to be caring.

The camera pans over to show her addressing Thor (Chris Hemsworth), Shang-Chi (Simu Liu), Black Panther (Letitia Wright), and others. Pedro Pascal’s Mister Fantastic is then shown asking Victor whether he was responsible for what appears to be a worldwide apocalypse.
“All of you have lived stolen lives,” Doom responds, as we get glimpses of Paul Rudd’s Ant-Man with the Wasp (Evangeline Lilly), Joseph Quinn’s Human Torch, Professor X (Patrick Stewart), Magneto (Ian McKellen), Chris Evans’ Captain America with a baby, Loki (Tom Hiddleston), Cyclops (James Marsden), and more. “Now you must give them back.”
