VIDEO: First ‘Avengers: Infinity War’ Trailer Shows Marvel’s Biggest Heroes Teaming up for the Fight of Their Lives
Superhero film stars Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner, Mark Ruffalo, Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, and more
November 29, 2017Marvel Studios dropped the official “Avengers: Infinity War” trailer on Wednesday and the eagerly anticipated first look is so full of superhero action it’ll make Captain America’s shield spin.
The trailer for the upcoming team-up film (above) sees the original Avengers—Robert Downey Jr.’s Iron Man, Scarlett Johansson’s Black Widow, Jeremy Renner’s Hawkeye, Chris Evans’ Captain America, Mark Ruffalo’s Hulk, and Chris Hemsworth’s Thor—coming together once again to ward off an unspeakable intergalactic threat, this time in the form of the mad titan Thanos (Josh Brolin), who seems to have invaded Earth in search of a bit more bling for his all-powerful Infinity Gauntlet.
In addition to a new bad guy and a couple of major modifications to the core team—Captain America gains a beard while Thor loses an eye—“Infinity War” has added into the mix virtually all of the previous Marvel movies’ heroes and sidekicks, including relative newcomers like Spider-Man (Tom Holland) and Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) as well as seasoned pros like Ant-Man and Rocket Raccoon (played by Stern Show veterans Paul Rudd and Bradley Cooper, respectively).
“Avengers: Infinity War,” directed by Joe and Anthony Russo (“Captain America: Civil War”), also stars Tom Hiddleston, Chadwick Boseman, Chris Pratt, Anthony Mackie, Elizabeth Olsen, Danai Gurira, Paul Bettany, Zoe Saldana, Vin Diesel, Dave Bautista, and of course Stan Lee. The film hits theaters May 4.
