''Avengers: Doomsday'' is scheduled to be released in the United States on December 18, 2026. It was originally scheduled for May 2, 2025, but was delayed to May 1, 2026, in part due to the 2023 Writers Guild of America strike, followed by another delay to the December 2026 date to allow more time for production to be completed. It will be part of Phase Six of the MCU.

It will be part of Phase Six of the MCU.


In early 2026, ''Doomsday'' was revealed to not have access to [[IMAX]] theaters in the United States for at least three weeks because the film ''[[Dune: Part Three]]'', which is also scheduled for release on December 18, has exclusivity in that time frame. ''Doomsday'' is expected to be released in IMAX in select international markets, and will also be available in other [[premium large format]]s (PLFs) such as [[Dolby Vision]], [[Screen X]], [[D-Box]], and [[4DX]]. ''[[TheWrap]]'' reported in March that Disney was planning to push hard to gain access to those other formats and to get into as many of the 322 chain-specific theater formats around the world as possible. At CinemaCon in April, Disney announced a new certification for PLFs called [[Infinity Vision]] which is intended to inform audiences which theaters offer "the biggest, brightest, and most immersive cinematic experiences" and meet certain technical standards. Discussing the Infinity Vision announcement for ''The Hollywood Reporter'', James Hibberd described it as "marketing bullshit" to make up for ''Doomsday'' not being in IMAX and felt a more accurate title could be "We’re Not In IMAX But Please Buy a More Expensive Ticket to Watch Our Movie Anyway". Hibberd predicted that Infinity Vision would not be mentioned again after the film's release.
