After weeks and weeks of speculating about when the Avengers: Endgame trailer was going to drop and what would be in it, we finally have it. But, like all good trailers, it raises more questions than it answers and now that we’ve got a taste for the movie, we want more.
Fans are already looking ahead to 2019 to try and figure out when we might get a second trailer, and for my money, a good bet’s that it’ll be attached to Captain Marvel. Marvel Studios will be wanting to capture the same box office alchemy that made Black Panther such an enormous hit a year ago, and that character’s popularity supercharged Avengers: Infinity War‘s box office. If they can make audiences fall in love with Captain Marvel and then release a trailer that teases her appearance in Endgame, they’ll be raking in the dough.
Of course, it’s also likely that they could choose to release it during a show on a Disney affiliated network. Many Marvel trailers have been debuted on programs like Good Morning America, Jimmy Kimmel Live and ESPN’s Monday Night Football – but somehow that seems too small of a stage for a film that’s destined to be this gargantuan.
That’s why we think it’s pretty much a dead cert that we can expect a new look at the film to premiere during Super Bowl LIII on February 3rd, before playing with Captain Marvel in theaters the month after. Everyone knows that the biggest summer blockbusters like to announce their presence with a Super Bowl appearance, and I’d expect this movie to do just the same. What that peek will contain is anyone’s guess, but I’d like to hope we’ll see more of the surviving characters and get an idea of what Captain America’s plan is that we heard about at the end of the Avengers: Endgame trailer.
