The evil villain Thanos is preparing to take over the universe and Marvel has recruited all of its cinematic superheroes, from Iron Man and Thor to Doctor Strange and Spider-Man, to save the galaxy in Wednesday`s new trailer for Avengers: Infinity War.
The film, due in theaters in May 2018, will see the biggest gathering of Walt Disney Co.-owned Marvel`s fast-expanding cadre of cinematic superheroes, including Doctor Strange, Black Panther and the Guardians of the Galaxy.
"This is the culmination of 10 years of filmmaking and I think it`s unprecedented," Joe Russo, who co-wrote and co-directed the film with his brother Anthony Russo, told Reuters in July after early footage of the film was shown at Disney`s D23 fan exposition in Anaheim, California.
"When you combine them, you get something that you haven`t seen before," Joe Russo said.
The Russo brothers said that Infinity Warwill close out a 10-year storyline that began with 2008`s Iron Man,and set the stage for a new iteration of Marvel`s on-screen superheroes.
