Disney hopes that this trailer strategy will be a win-win for two of their biggest blockbusters in 2022, kicking off the worldwide marketing for the December 2022 sequel to a 13-year-old cinematic phenomenon while also generating a few extra dollars for Doctor Strange 2 from fans of the Pandora franchise.
According to The Ankler's Jeff Sneider, Disney is planning to debut the first trailer for James Cameron's Avatar 2 in front of the May 6, 2022, theatrical release of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.
The one-of-a-kind visual effects of the first movie in the series made it the highest-grossing movie of all time.
Thanks to the Multiverse breaking and dozens of potential cameos coming into play, Doctor Strange 2 is hoping to be in the conversation for the biggest movie of the year. Now that Disney has the rights to the franchise, it makes sense to promote another movie that could be just as big of a hit.
While fans wait for the first trailer for July's THOR: LOVE AND THUD, May would seem to be a little earlier than expected for the film's second trailer, which will be released seven months later. The opportunity to promote another film with the financial potential of Spider-Man: No Way Home is too good to pass up.
Fans may have an idea of when to expect the first look at the game after a new exciting development. Disney wants to give the movie a lot of attention because fans have seen a lot of THOR recently, and they want to give it a lot of attention as well. The year is filled with blockbusters and companies like Warner Bros. are looking to make their mark. After the re-release of the movie, it took the top spot for a short time before it was replaced by another movie. A movie that has been almost a generation in the making is included in that mix.
Most of the revenue from the all-time box office has come more than a decade ago. The movie is set to premiere on the same day as the movie.
It has been more than a dozen years since the first film in the series was released. It has taken a long time for the movie to be seen by many people, even though filming is making headway on the other two movies. Doctor Strange 2 is expected to premiere on May 6, 2022. This sci-fi epic has faced delays unlike any other movie, but it is finally on the horizon.
The sequel to the movie "Avatar" will be released in theaters on December 16, 2022.
This date will allow Disney to get a head-start over Warner Bros.
