Marvel Officially Debuts New Avengers Movie on Disney+ Today

After three hours of watching the Avengers try to undo what Thanos did, the last thing Avengers: Endgame gives us is a dance in somebody’s living room. Steve Rogers (Chris Evans) finally gets to be with Peggy Carter (Hayley Atwell), and for a few seconds, nobody needs Captain America for anything. The Russo Brothers went back to that scene seven years later and added a knock at the door.

When Marvel brought Endgame back to theaters in September, audiences got to see who was on the other side of that door. There was more waiting in the credits, too, including a sound anyone who’s seen the first Iron Man might recognize before they realize whose face they’re looking at. Fans who saw the re-release in IMAX or an Infinity Vision-certified theater also got a separate sneak peek at Avengers: Doomsday.

Marvel Studios’ Avengers Endgame: Encore is now streaming exclusively on Disney+. The extended cut arrived on the streaming platform today, November 13, with updated color grading and about four minutes of new footage connecting the 2019 movie to Avengers: Doomsday. Disney+ confirms the added scenes are included in the streaming release. The premium-format sneak peek was advertised separately for theaters.

C OLLIDER Collider · Quiz Collider Exclusive · 8 Questions · 2 Minutes Which MCU Villain Do You Align With? Killmonger · Namor · Zemo · Thanos Eight honest questions about how you actually are: what you do about something unfair, how long you will wait for what you want, who you are really loyal to, how easily you let a thing go.

Every one of them thinks they are the reasonable person in the room. 🐆 Killmonger (Black Panther) 🔱 Namor (Wakanda Forever) 🎭 Zemo (Civil War) 🧤 Thanos (Infinity War) FIND YOUR VILLAIN → QUESTION 1 / 8 THE UNFAIRNESS 01 How do you react to something you think is unfair?

D I look for why it keeps happening at all. NEXT QUESTION → QUESTION 2 / 8 THE PATIENCE 02 How long will you wait for something you want? Patience separates these four more than anything else.

B Use it to shut my own people off from the world. C Use it to make the guilty face what they did. D Use it to fix the thing everybody refuses to face. REVEAL MY VILLAIN → The Case Is Made You Align With… Four villains, and four arguments the films were honest enough to actually let them make. Here is the one you lean towards, the part of it that holds up, and the exact point where it stops holding up. Black Panther · Marvel Studios · 2018 Erik Killmonger You align with the one who was right about the problem and wrong about the solution. Killmonger is the most persuasive villain Marvel has produced because the film never pretends his anger came from nowhere. You notice who was abandoned and you cannot let it go, which is a moral instinct before it is anything else.

His argument lands because Wakanda really did watch and do nothing, and the film makes T'Challa admit it out loud.

Where it breaks is the method, since a man who was failed by power decided the answer was to hold more of it.

Michael B. Jordan plays him as somebody performing certainty over grief, which is why the last scene of that film still works. Wakanda Forever · Marvel Studios · 2022 Namor You align with the protector, which is the most understandable and most dangerous position on this list. Namor is not chasing power or revenge, he is doing whatever keeps his people hidden, and he has been doing it for centuries. Your loyalty has a hard border around it, and everything inside that border matters far more to you than anything outside it.

Talokan is the best realised world Marvel has built since Wakanda, and the film makes you understand exactly what he is guarding.

His logic is airtight right up until it requires somebody else's people to pay for his people's safety.

He would rather be feared by the surface world forever than trust it once, and history has given him reasons. Captain America: Civil War · 2016 Helmut Zemo You align with the patient one, the only man on this list with no powers, no army and no hurry. Zemo lost his family in Sokovia and then spent years working out that you do not fight the Avengers, you introduce them to each other's secrets. You go quiet when you are hurt, and the quiet is where the thinking happens.

Zemo is the only MCU villain who completely won, and he did it with a notebook, a plan and a great deal of self control.

His grief is real, and the film is careful never to let you forget that he started as an ordinary man with a family.

Where it fails is the cost, since taking apart the people who hurt him meant hurting a great many people who did not. Avengers: Infinity War · 2018 Thanos You align with the one who decided the answer was arithmetic. Thanos is not angry and not grieving in any way he will admit to, he simply reached a conclusion and never once revisited it, which is precisely what makes him frightening. You are capable of holding a position that costs you everything, and you would call that conviction rather than stubbornness.

Infinity War works because it is structured as his film, with a goal, a journey and a sacrifice, and the heroes are the obstacle.

The flaw in the plan is not the cruelty, it is that he never seriously considered a single alternative to it.

Josh Brolin plays him tired rather than triumphant, which is the choice that turned a purple giant into a real character. ↻ RETAKE THE QUIZ

What Does ‘Avengers Endgame: Encore’ Add?

Spoilers for the new Encore footage follow.When Peggy answers the door, it’s Tom Hiddleston’s Loki. He tells her he can help both of them, and “both” is the part audiences keep coming back to. Steve spent years trying to get back to Peggy, and the first person to interrupt their dance makes his pitch to her. It’s an especially good use of Loki, whose own second chance came courtesy of the Avengers’ time heist. They gave him an opening to grab the Tesseract and run, setting his Disney+ series in motion. Now he’s on the doorstep of the life Steve went back in time to have.

The first credits scene picks up with Mark Ruffalo’s Bruce Banner after Spider-Man: Brand New Day. He’s recording himself in an underground bunker, explaining how he plans to keep the Hulk under control when the feed glitches. Robert Downey Jr.’s Doctor Doom speaks from off-screen. There’s a flash of green, the Hulk roars, and a magical sigil is all that’s left in the cell. At the TVA, Mobius, Casey, and O.B. watch the Fox X-Men universe and another Earth fire missiles at each other as they collide. The alerts keep coming, and the count of lost universes climbs into the thousands.

Then comes the sound of Tony Stark hammering out his first Iron Man mask. That’s a hell of a sound to hear at the end of Endgame, especially with Downey Jr. back in the picture. You know whose face you expect to see, but this time, the last face the movie leaves you with is Doom’s.

Avengers Endgame: Encore is streaming on Disney+. Avengers: Doomsday opens in theaters December 18.
