The CinemaConvergence

Press, influencers, and theater owners flocked to Las Vegas to be wined and dined by Hollywood Studios at this year’s CinemaCon, where the event is beginning to feel more and more like a rival to San Diego Comic-Con in its golden years with the deluge of exciting announcements. With the sheer volume of news to cover, let’s break down the biggest headlines by studio panel:

Disney

• Kevin Feige confirmed that Avengers Endgame will rerelease in theaters ahead of Avengers Doomsday with added scenes. A first trailer for Avengers Doomsday was also shown to the crowd who finally got to see Downey’s Doom in action. According to ComicBook.com, the trailer heavily featured Thor and included Shang-Chi, Gambit, and Steve Rogers.
