Watch the Avengers: Infinity War trailer that debuted at Super Bowl 52 (Video)
Avengers: Infinity War debuted not only new emoji on Twitter tonight for Super Bowl 52, but also a short and sweet teaser.
Look. Avengers: Infinity War probably didn’t need a Super Bowl spot, but hey, it is the biggest TV event pretty much every year, and for those who were not aware that another Avengers movie was coming out … well, there’s a good chance now.
Although it didn’t last very long — just about 30 seconds — it did show us a few new shots, including Spider-Man on that strange circular object that featured in the first trailer and pulling his mask off briefly. Additionally, we got a look at Nebula as well, looking as fierce as usual.
Anything that includes a still-bearded Captain America trying out his new shield is great, though — it’s small, black, and looks like it can change shapes. Wakandan technology is way past the old-fashioned shield the Cap used to have, eh?
Of course, the Iron Man-Doctor Strange-Spider-Man connection looks to be pretty interesting as well. The doc hasn’t had much chance to interact with the very science or technology-based heroes of the universe so far, but we’re sure he can go toe-to-toe snark wise with Tony Stark (pun intended). It promises to be a great team-up.
But honestly … it’s still pretty hard to top the now-iconic shot of Captain America leading the charge with Okoye, Black Panther, the Winter Soldier and Black Widow in Wakanda. No wonder the spot really ends on that. That’s the kind of big shot that basically tells you everything you need to know … and has some very recognizable heroes.
There’s also the briefest look at Loki, this time sans Tesseract, and without much context. It seems related to the shot of him with the Tesseract, though, but that’s just some speculation rather than concrete identification.
Check out the spot below:
And for bonus points, there’s a new host of emoji on Twitter for most of the main heroes in the film:
