Marvel Studios has officially brought back its 2019 blockbuster with Avengers: Endgame Encore, giving fans a fresh theatrical experience packed with new crucial footage that would lead to the events of Avengers: Doomsday.
As the MCU builds momentum toward its next major crossover event, these crucial bonus stingers will become the primary bridge to connect the past phases into the chaotic future ahead. Here is a detailed breakdown of what transpired after the credits rolled and how these reveals set the stage for the next era of Earth's Mightiest Heroes.
WARNING: This article contains MAJOR SPOILERS for Avengers: Endgame Encore, so proceed with caution.
What Happened in Avengers: Endgame Encore Post-Credits Scene?
The updated theatrical cut abandons the original release's brief audio-only tribute in favor of three distinct sequences.
In the Encore ending sequence, as reputable scooper MyTimeToShineH revealed, the God of Mischief learns that the hero's timeline was due for pruning by the TVA and chooses to move him and his family to safety in a reality where they don't exist.
However, despite the seemingly harmless move, this may be one of the anomalies that ended up killing Doom's family.
As for the Avengers: Endgame Encore's post-credit scenes, the first one shows the TVA watching various timelines being erased (when Doomsday begins, Earth-616, Earth-828, and Earth-10005 will be the last realities left standing).
Meanwhile, the second post-credits scene sees Doom recruiting The Hulk, for a reason that remains a mystery. It is also unconfirmed whether this is the Bruce Banner of Earth-616 or another Hulk, but many believe it's the character after the events of Spider-Man: Brand New Day.
Either way, as Banner records a video log about his efforts to suppress the Hulk, Doctor Doom makes his presence known, and the screen cuts to black.
The final stinger cuts to the TVA, where Mobius and Casey watch in horror as multiple parallel universes collide in catastrophic incursions, leading to what Doomsday is preparing Earth's Mightiest Heroes and MCU fans for.
How Endgame Encore's Post-Credits Set Up Avengers: Doomsday
These extra scenes were necessary in establishing Doctor Doom as a calculating overarching threat who had long gathered key multiversal assets before the heroes even realized they had started a war with him.
By directly targeting Bruce Banner and taking advantage of his isolation, Doom secures one of the strongest beings in existence for his own mysterious plans, directly setting up the primary conflict of Avengers: Doomsday.
At the same time, the TVA sequence also confirms that the multiversal collapse is already underway, which would escalate the threat level to full-blown cosmic destruction, just as Doomsday teased in the trailer.
With Loki stepping in to handle Steve Rogers' anomalous timeline placement and reality tearing itself apart, the Encore additions make it clear that the consequences of time travel in Endgame have finally caught up with the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
