- Avengers: Doomsday You can face face to face with another great movie at the end of 2026
- The launch of the Marvel film was recently retreated from May 2026 to December of that year.
- Florence Pugh is expected to star in both films
It is time to start preparing for the 2026 edition of Barbenheimer, all.
With Avengers: Doomsday When delayed until December 18, 2026, Marvel’s highly anticipated film will fight with another mass movie at the end of next year.
The film in question? Dune: MessiahThe third entry into the epic science fiction franchise directed by Denis Villeneuve. At the time of publication, another of the new most exciting films of 2026 will also land in theaters next year on December 18, and as long as Avengers 5 and Dune 3 Keep your current launch dates, we could have another Barnerheimer -style films visualization event in our hands.
For those who might need a reminder, Barbenheimer was the title awarded in the event that saw Margo Robbie starring Barbie Cinema and Christopher Nolan directed by Oppenheimer Flick launched the same day in 2023. His contrasting styles and genres, along with the large amount of talent involved in both productions, saw many fans go to their local theater to see consecutive projections of these films.
Avengers: Doomsday and Dune: Messiah It will not be so polarizing stylistically, but two of the most popular products of 2026 occupy different genres. The fifth Avengers movie is undoubtedly a comic/superhero movie, while Dune’s franchise, both by Frank Herbert’s Books and his films series, is directly in the realm of science fiction.
In my opinion, that is enough to ensure that they meet the criteria presented by Barbenheimer. That is that the marked contrast between both films is valid enough to create a phenomenon -based phenomenon event similar around it. Avengers: Dunesdaysomeone?
Of course, none of this will import if Avengers 5 It suffers another setback of the launch day. Alternatively, Warner Bros. Pictures and Subsidiary Studio Legendary could flicker first and decide to delay Dune: MessiahThe own launch so that it is not forced to compete with the juggernaut cinematographic that is the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).
Yeah Dune 3 And the second Marvel film Phase 6 retains its current launch dates, however, Christmas 2026 will surely be happy (and turning money) for Florence Pugh.
Pugh, who recently played Yelena Belova in another MCU movie in Good heavens*It was announced as part of the initial cast of 27 people to Avengers: Doomsday At the end of March. However, Pugh is also expected to repeat his role as Princess Iulalan, whom he first played Dune part twoin Dune: Messiah.
While Irulan is part of the cast of the latter, Pugh will appear in two of the most anticipated films that will be launched before the end of 2026, it is not bad for someone whose paper rupture only arrived in the horror horror movie A24 of 2019 HalfHey?
Being realistic, however, I can’t see Doomsday and Messiah Releasing the same day.
The filming is not yet underway in the latter, and it will not be for some time. Meanwhile, from the Hollywood strikes of 2023, numerous Marvel films have been delayed at least twice, so Doomsday I could suffer a similar destination.
I’m not sure what movie will be diverted in 2027 but, as much as I want Avengers: Dunesday To be a thing, it seems an impossible dream, and that is before more delays are announced on the release date.
