“The end is near.”
So says Thanos, the big bad set to destroy your summer. Or something.
Welcome to #TRAILERCHEST, where we’re taking a sneak peek at the brand new trailer for Avengers: Infinity War.
After the first trailer whetted appetites for Marvel fans around the world, things have been kicked up a significant notch with the latest reveal.
Plot’s it’s all about?
Chaos, mostly.
It’s your classic battle for supremacy as the Avengers – and new bickering friends the Guardians of the Galaxy – team up to thwart Thanos and his quest to essentially level half of humanity.
We’ve seen glimpses of Josh Brolin’s CGI supervillain but the latest trailer gives us both a good extended look at him and goes some way to explaining what he’s all about.
If you’re unfamiliar, Thanos is obsessed with death to the point that he courts it, and thus is hell-bent on establishing his violent new world order.
Also, we’re pretty sure that the above is Tom Vaughan-Lawlor as Ebony Maw; one of Thanos’ most vicious henchmen who appears to have Dr. Strange in a precarious position.
Expect lots of action and one-liners and so much stuff going on that you probably can’t see all of it on a first watch.
Starring: Chris Evans, Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson, Anthony Mackie, Sebastian Stan, Josh Brolin, Tom Holland, Benedict Cumberbatch, Chadwick Boseman, Jeremy Renner…
Directed by: Joe and Anthony Russo.
Irish release date: 27 April
Enjoy…
