Marvel fans are losing their stuff after the Avengers 4 trailer debuted on Friday, Dec. 7, 2018. The 2-minute video didn’t show many of the superheroes but gave fans just enough of the plot to spark a frenzy.
News of the new trailer comes on the heels of Marvel’s new Captain America teaser. Unlike much of Avengers 4, which had key scenes shot in metro Atlanta, Captain America was filmed in London, Manchester, Caerwent, and Liverpool in the United Kingdom, and Los Angeles.
The new Infinity War trailer is set to be released in the UK Wednesday afternoon with American audiences reportedly getting a glimpse on “Good Morning America.”
Where was Avengers 4 filmed?
Filming for Avengers 4 began in August 2017 at Pinewood Studios in Fayetteville. The Atlanta area has been embraced by Marvel producers as an affordable place to shot and do post-production on the Avenger movies, including some of their individual superhero movies such as Ant-Man.
So far, three Avengers films have been shot in ATL with one slated for release in 2019.
The Captain Marvel trailer debuted during halftime of the Washington Redskins-Philadelphia Eagles game, which starts at 8:15 p.m. ET on ESPN.
See the Captain Marvel trailer
Fans can expect the usual superheroes with deep story arcs, including Iron Man, Black Panther, Captain America, Spider-Man, Black Widow and of course, Thanos.
Captain Marvel will be released in U.S. theaters on March 8, 2019, a few months ahead of Avengers 4, which premieres May 3.
Atlanta has become a movie mecca in recent years and Georgia has been a favorite location for TV productions since the state instituted generous tax breaks for film companies that agree to shoot locally. Projects from CBS, NBC, HBO, BET and more are slated to shoot in the metro area in 2018-19 and the foreseeable future.With more than 700 movie and TV projects just in the last few years, the film industry has generated more than $9 billion for the state of Georgia.There are so many movies filmed in Atlanta these days that it’s hard to keep up with it all.

“The Long Goodbye” is a dramedy about love, hope, and letting go. For Mrs. Pet, disbelief is the easiest way to deal with the death of her only child, 28-year-old Amy.
For Clarence, Mrs. Pet’s husband, and Terry, her son-in-law, time is the best medicine. It’s been nearly two years since Amy died on Christmas morning. And for two years Mrs. Pet has patiently waited for her to return, believing that Amy didn’t die, but went away until she was better.
Mrs. Pet has been trapped in time since that morning, refusing to remove her Christmas tree or decor.
