Marvel puts ominous twist on regular Fantastic Four clip to tease Avengers: Doomsday
Avengers: Doomsday is one step closer
The wait for Avengers: Doomsday is getting more agonizing as Marvel releases an ingenious – and ominous – new tease for the film.
Every week since last August, the Fantastic Four Twitter account has put out a video of Pedro Pascal's Reed Richards saying, "We make a point to do family dinner every week. Sunday at seven, on the dot, no matter what."
But, this most recent Sunday (July 19), the video changed for the very first time. A glitch switches the video to black, and we hear Sue Storm ask "how long do we have left?" Reed responds: "Not long."

It's a cryptic tease, but one that makes it obvious Marvel's First Family are in danger. After all, Robert Downey Jr.'s Doctor Doom was introduced to the MCU in the Fantastic Four post-credits scene, so it makes sense that they might be in serious peril. Here's hoping they can pull through…
Along with the Fantastic Four, the rest of the supersized Doomsday cast includes the Thunderbolts, the Fox-era X-Men, and the likes of Chris Hemsworth's Thor, Anthony Mackie's Captain America, and Letitia Wright's Shuri.
"There are a lot of surprises in this. And I think [Doomsday is] the most emotionally complex of all of them," Joe Russo has previously teased of the movie. "And in a lot of ways, the most mature of all of them."
Doomsday arrives this December 18. In the meantime, check out our guide to all the upcoming Marvel movies and shows for everything else the MCU has on the way.
