If you want to catch every Avengers: Doomsday teaser in Avengers: Endgame Encore, be warned. Not every theater is showing all four extra scenes.
Instead, only IMAX screenings of Avengers: Endgame Encore are showing all of the extra scenes, along with Infinity Vision theaters. Infinity Vision is not a new film format, but rather a certification program created by Disney to tell audiences which Premium Large Format theaters have met their criteria for an “exceptional” moviegoing experience.
Audiences were disappointed by the fact that IMAX and Infinity Vision screenings of Avengers: Endgame Encore got exclusive content, especially since the missing scene amounts to a good chunk of the extra four minutes tacked on to Avengers: Endgame. In an Aug. 25 press release, Disney did make note of the difference between screenings, writing, “An additional sneak peek at [Avengers: Doomsday] will also be available to audiences who see Avengers: Endgame Encore on IMAX and Infinity Vision-certified screens.”
What happens in the exclusive Avengers: Endgame Encore scene?
The exclusive Avengers: Endgame Encore scene takes place in the headquarters of the Time Variance Authority (TVA), first introduced in Season 1 of Loki. There, the TVA’s Mobius (Owen Wilson), Ouroboros (Ke Huy Quan), and Casey (Eugene Cordero) observe a troubling incursion. Two alternate Earths are about to collide, and they’re firing missiles at one another.
From there, the number of incursions multiples. It’s not long before thousands of universes are colliding, and the TVA is out of its depth.
“The multiverse is collapsing,” Ouroboros says.
It’s a foreboding set up for Avengers: Doomsday, one that could explain how the main MCU crosses over with the Fantastic Four’s universe and the universe containing Fox’s X-Men.
Avengers: Endgame Encore is now in theaters. Avengers: Doomsday hits theaters Dec. 18.
