Avengers: Endgame Trailer - 8 Small Details You Might Have Missed

Did you spot the hidden meanings in the title card?

After what feels like years of waiting, the first trailer for Avengers 4 - which we now know is called Avengers: Endgame - has finally hit the web.

As expected, it gives away virtually nothing, showing us quick flashes of several snap-surviving heroes and hinting that they have a plan to undo Thanos' decimation of the universe. Considering that movie studios usually put too much into their trailers, it feels refreshing to see one that is a lot more careful with the information it reveals.

But even though, on the surface, it seems like the trailer is light on talking points, dig a little deeper and you'll find that there's actually some interesting stuff to unpack. This may be the most vague Marvel Cinematic Universe teaser trailer of the lot, but that only means it's perfect speculation material.

It also means you have to look really hard to notice all the cool stuff that's hidden in each frame, and to that end, there are a bunch of things you may have missed when you watched it the first ten times. And counting.

8. Tony Says "Rescue", A Possible Hint At His Salvation

The Endgame trailer opens on a very dour note - quite appropriate, given the end of Infinity War. But there's still hope. While Tony is delivering a heartfelt final message to his bride-to-be Pepper Potts, he mentions the word "rescue", which might just be the key to his escape from this tricky situation.

Earlier this year, an image of Pepper - that was supposedly snapped on the Endgame set - leaked online. In the image, she can be seen wearing an Iron Man-esque suit (note the space for an arc reactor in the centre) while stood in front of a green screen.

But what does this have to do with the Endgame trailer, and Tony's predicament? Well, "Rescue" is the name given to Pepper when she dons her very own Iron Man armour in the comics. It's possible that she somehow receives Tony's message and decides to try and save him herself, with a little help from her new suit.

Infinity War proved that the Iron Man armour can withstand some pretty harsh conditions - alien planets, high altitudes, punches from big purple dudes - so it's not a huge leap to imagine that Pepper could fly into space and rescue her genius, billionaire, former-playboy philanthropist.
