Avengers: Doomsday Set for Early UK Release

Published 25 September 2026

Avengers: Doomsday is scheduled to open in UK cinemas on December 16, 2026, two days before its stated global release, Disney confirmed. The film’s announced cast is not complete, director Anthony Russo said, but he did not identify any additional performers. The global release date is December 18, according to the reports. The UK date was confirmed by Disney in response to an inquiry, making the film’s scheduled UK opening an early release compared with the wider launch. The sources do not explain the reason for the two-day difference. Russo’s remarks came during a question-and-answer session connected to the planned Avengers: Endgame Encore re-release. He said that some cast members had been announced and others had not. The comment confirms that the public roster is incomplete, but leaves open who else will appear and when further names might be disclosed. One report also relayed Russo’s statement that he and his brother Joe were still deep in postproduction on Doomsday. That status does not establish whether additional scenes are being filmed. Rumors about reshoots and potential surprise appearances have circulated, but the supplied remarks do not confirm either.
