New ‘Avengers: Doomsday’ Promo Art Pits Doctor Doom Against a Multiversal Dream Team
Marvel Studios’ ‘Avengers: Doomsday’ is just over a month away, and the promotional push keeps picking up speed. Directed by Anthony and Joe Russo, the film reaches theaters on December 18, with Robert Downey Jr. returning to the MCU in a brand-new role as the villain Doctor Doom.
Over the past few weeks, fans have been flooded with promotional material. A large collection of posters and artwork has surfaced online, much of it through merchandise products, and The Direct has rounded up more than 2 dozen designs showing heroes from the Avengers, the X-Men and the Fantastic Four in different combinations.
Now another piece has joined the collection. New promo art shared by @spartanfiles_ puts Doom’s iron mask front and center, looming behind a lineup of heroes from three different corners of the multiverse.
The new artwork features Anthony Mackie’s Sam Wilson in his full Captain America gear, shield in hand, alongside Florence Pugh’s Yelena Belova. Ebon Moss-Bachrach’s Thing represents the Fantastic Four, while Kelsey Grammer’s Beast and James Marsden’s Cyclops, firing his signature optic blast, carry the X-Men flag.
The lineup lines up with what earlier posters have suggested. Many of these images have positioned Sam, Yelena and Cyclops as leaders of their teams, while the Thing has consistently represented the Fantastic Four side of the story.

Fans will recognize the gritty, painted style from similar artwork that has been circulating. One earlier poster placed Doom in his signature metal mask and green cloak, surrounded by Captain America, Yelena, Black Panther, Reed Richards, Cyclops, Beast and the Thing.
The heroes on display reflect just how big this crossover is. When Marvel revealed the cast in a lengthy livestream, the roster included Chris Hemsworth as Thor, Letitia Wright as Shuri, Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards and Channing Tatum as Gambit, among many others.

The film also brings back actors from Fox’s original ‘X-Men’ films, including Patrick Stewart as Professor X, Ian McKellen as Magneto, Rebecca Romijn as Mystique and Alan Cumming as Nightcrawler. Grammer and Marsden returning as Beast and Cyclops has been one of the biggest talking points for longtime fans.
According to Marvel’s official synopsis, the story follows heroes from three distinct universes who end up on a deadly collision course while facing an existential threat. The Avengers, Wakandans, New Avengers, Fantastic Four and X-Men all converge to face Doom as the multiverse begins to collapse.

One thing fans have noticed across the promotional artwork is how closely many of the costumes follow the comics. Cyclops’ blue-and-gold suit and Doom’s iconic green hood have been among the most talked-about designs.
Earlier artwork also showed Captain America, Yelena, Thor, Shang-Chi, Red Guardian and the Winter Soldier in more traditional, comic-inspired outfits. Taken together, the images suggest Marvel is leaning into classic looks for this crossover.
The latest artwork arrives as fans wait for another big look at the film. Several insiders have reported that a new trailer is expected later this month, ahead of the movie’s December release.

‘Avengers: Doomsday’ was originally set for May 2026 before Disney moved it to give the production more time. It will be followed by ‘Avengers: Secret Wars’ on December 17, 2027, which will close out the Multiverse Saga.
