Yuh huh, Marvel has done it once again.
The comic giant has acknowledged that, yes, there’s some crazy excitement and high levels of anticipation from “Avengers” fans leading up to the release of “Age of Ultron“. As such, the company decided to release a 15-second teaser for its next “Avengers: Age of Ultron” trailer. Oh you know, just feeding off the “Avengers” fandom.
The teaser indicates that Marvel is already preparing a second trailer for the film and despite it being only a short clip, it does quickly show the members of the superhero squad reflected in a chrome version of the “Avengers” logo. Watch:
Sure, it doesn’t give much away about the “Avengers: Age of Ultron” plot, but the full new trailer will premiere on 12th Jan during the college football national championship on ESPN. We have a feeling that this is limited to fans in the US only – for now. But let’s hope that Marvel will release it online after it premieres!
They have to, anyway, because their last attempt to keep an “Avengers” trailer under wraps didn’t go so well. The previous 2-minute video, which showed the “Avengers” team in action, was leaked online in October. Luckily for the company, they managed to handle that crisis quite well, with first taking it to Twitter to acknowledge that yes, it got leaked:
Dammit, Hydra.

And then quickly posting a 1080p quality version of the trailer on its official YouTube channel, an entire week before they scheduled it to go live. If you missed it, check it out here.
