The Avengers: Doomsday trailer leaks have entered their most unusual phase yet: fans are reportedly turning leaked footage into anime-style images to avoid copyright takedowns. It is not exactly the cleanest way to preview a billion-dollar superhero film, but nobody said the internet was built for restraint.
Marvel Studios’ next major crossover is still expected later in the year, but the drip-feed has already been steady. So far, fans have seen four separate looks at the film, or five if the lengthy cast reveal is counted as its own event. Most have functioned less like full trailers and more like character-focused teasers, confirming appearances from Thor, Steve Rogers, the X-Men, the Fantastic Four, and the Wakandans.
Why fans think a new teaser is coming
The latest round of speculation picked up after Marvel was confirmed for another showcase at San Diego Comic-Con. That kind of stage usually means carefully timed footage, carefully worded remarks, and several thousand people pretending they will not immediately describe everything online.
A new trailer is expected to arrive on July 25 during the Comic-Con presentation. Ahead of that, alleged images from the upcoming preview have started circulating on X, where one fan claimed to have found leaked shots from the next trailer.
The catch: the images were not shared in their original form. Instead, they had reportedly been run through artificial intelligence and transformed into anime-style versions of the Marvel characters. The apparent goal was simple: keep the key visual information visible while making the material harder to identify and remove through copyright claims.
