Marvel Studios has officially showcased new promotional artwork for Avengers: Doomsday at BilibiliWorld in Shanghai, providing fans with a clearer look at the film’s sprawling roster. Among the confirmed characters featured in the studio’s LED wall display is Paul Rudd, who is depicted in his full Ant-Man suit.
The artwork serves as a significant “roster statement” for the upcoming blockbuster, which is scheduled for release on December 18, 2026. The composition positions Doctor Doom as the central looming threat, while the surrounding heroes include James Marsden’s Cyclops, Pedro Pascal’s Reed Richards, and Sam Wilson’s Captain America. The inclusion of Ant-Man confirms that Rudd remains a key player in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as the studio prepares to challenge the box office competition, including Dune: Part Three.
Beyond the primary key art, Marvel displayed a traditional Chinese-style ink-brush scroll at the event. This exclusive piece further emphasizes the integration of the X-Men into the narrative, featuring figures such as Professor X, Beast, and Nightcrawler alongside the core Avengers and Fantastic Four. According to reports from the event, the promotional push in Shanghai is a strategic move by Disney to secure support in the Chinese market, which remains critical for the franchise’s global commercial performance.
