The Avengers: Doomsday runtime is currently estimated at around 150 minutes, Anthony Russo told Fandango, according to IGN. That is roughly half an hour shorter than Avengers: Endgame and about 15 minutes below the 165-minute figure reported alongside July’s early ticketing plan. Russo’s wording was approximate, not confirmation of the final cut.
Avengers: Doomsday runtime: how it compares
| Film | Runtime |
|---|---|
| Avengers: Infinity War | 149 minutes |
| Avengers: Doomsday | About 150 minutes, per Anthony Russo |
| Avengers: Endgame | 181 minutes |
That would put the Avengers: Doomsday runtime close to Infinity War and well below Endgame. The earlier 165-minute figure came from a ticketing schedule reported by The Hollywood Reporter, which said the final cut was unlikely to be locked in July. Our report on the pre-sale listing covered that earlier number.
The two figures are snapshots from different points in production, not proof that the film has been trimmed by 15 minutes. IGN says reshoots were believed to be taking place in September; the exact running time remains unconfirmed. GamesRadar’s report also quotes Russo’s “two-and-a-half-hour movie or so” description.
What the Russos said about the ending
Anthony Russo described the film as a “focused propulsive narrative” with an organising principle at its centre, saying the challenge was fitting its large cast around that idea. Joe Russo separately teased an ending that would surprise viewers, without giving away what happens.
“I think people are going to be surprised. It’s a very surprising ending. It’s a very surprising movie and that’s all we’ll say about it.”

The film is scheduled to open on December 18, 2026, according to Marvel. Marvel lists Avengers: Secret Wars for December 17, 2027. For local cinema details, see our Avengers: Doomsday UAE release guide…
How long should I allow for an Avengers: Doomsday screening?
The feature is currently estimated at about 150 minutes. Add time for any trailers, adverts or interval listed by your cinema, and use the final showtime details rather than this provisional estimate as a booking guarantee.
Does a two-and-a-half-hour runtime guarantee equal time for the Avengers cast?
No. A feature’s duration does not show how screen time is distributed, and Anthony Russo has not discussed individual character allocations. His comment only describes the broad narrative structure.
