The fourth mini teaser-trailer for 'Avengers: Doomsday' is currently running in movie theatres, but the trailer has already been doing the rounds on social media. The latest features the Wakandans, the Talokanil, and, unexpectedly, one member of the Fantastic Four.

The newest clip starts with an appearance from  Shuri (Laetitia Wright), the current Black Panther, alongside Wakandan King M'Baku (Winston Duke) and the Dora Milaje. The clip also features Namor (Tenoch Huerta Mejía) and Namora (Mabel Cadena). To add a comedy element for the first time in the three trailers, M'Baku's interaction with The Thing  (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) leaves fans with a smile.

"I’ve lost everyone that matters to me," Shuri's voiceover says. "A king has his duties, to prepare our people for the afterlife. I have mine." M'Baku later introduces himself to Ben Grimm, saying, "King M'Baku, of Wakanda," to which the latter responds, "Ben. Uh, Yancy Street, between Broome and Grand."

For now, much is up in the air about how the Wakandans even met with Grimm in the first place. One possibility is that the FF could have landed on the mainline MCU Earth as seen in the 'Thunderbolts' post-credits scene.

It is public knowledge that Marvel Studios is releasing character-focused teasers, with the first three focusing on Steve Rogers (Chris Evans), Thor (Chris Hemsworth), and the X-Men, featuring Professor Charles Xavier (Patrick Stewart), Magneto (Ian McKellen), and Cyclops (James Marsden). A full-fledged trailer for the film is rumored to premiere with Super Bowl LX. Should the MCU indeed stick to its pattern, then the fourth trailer will be live on YouTube in January. 13.

'Avengers Doomsday' also stars Robert Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom, alongside Anthony Mackie as Captain America, Sebastian Stan as the Winter Soldier, Letitia Wright as Shuri, Paul Rudd as Ant-Man, Wyatt Russell as U.S. Agent, Tenoch Huerta Mejía as Namor, Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm, Pedro Pascal as Mister Fantastic, Joseph Quinn as the Human Torch, Ebon Moss-Bachrach as the Thing, and Simu Liu as Shang-Chi.

Also starring are Florence Pugh as White Widow, Kelsey Grammer as the Beast, Lewis Pullman as Sentry, Danny Ramirez as Falcon, David Harbour as Red Guardian, Winston Duke as M'Baku, Hannah John-Kamen as Ghost, and Tom Hiddleston as Loki.

'Avengers: Doomsday' releases in cinemas on 18 December.
