Avengers Doomsday has received a new promotional push featuring Channing Tatum as Gambit alongside H.E.R.B.I.E., the small robotic companion from The Fantastic Four.
The campaign, released by Dunkin on Wednesday, November 4, is part of a wider collaboration with Marvel Studios ahead of the film’s theatrical release on December 18, 2026.

Channing Tatum returns as Gambit
The new commercial, titled “MUNCHKIN Incursion,” places Tatum’s Gambit in a Dunkin restaurant with H.E.R.B.I.E. as the pair prepare for the threat facing the Marvel characters.
Gambit orders an Iced Captain’ccino while H.E.R.B.I.E. arrives with Doomsday-themed MUNCHKINS donut-hole treats, according to Dunkin’s announcement.
The spot gives audiences another look at Tatum’s version of the Cajun mutant after his appearance in Deadpool & Wolverine.
Disney’s official Avengers Doomsday cast listing includes Tatum alongside Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, Pedro Pascal, Paul Rudd, Anthony Mackie and several returning X-Men and Fantastic Four actors.
What is included in the Avengers Doomsday promotion?
Dunkin says its Avengers Doomsday menu became available at participating U.S. restaurants on November 4, while supplies last.
The lineup includes character-inspired drinks such as the Iced Captain’ccino, Clobbered Cloud Latte, Wakandan Daydream Refresher, Optic Blast Lemonade and Doom’s Orders Energy.
The promotion also includes themed donuts, a Doctor Doom 25-count MUNCHKINS tin and limited-edition tumblers, mugs and cup sleeves based on Doctor Doom, the Avengers, the X-Men and the Fantastic Four.
Dunkin’s announcement refers to participating restaurants nationwide in the United States.
It does not announce a Canadian menu rollout, so Canadian fans should check local availability rather than assume the promotion is offered in Canada.
Marvel-themed Dunkin locations planned for November
The partnership will also extend to four temporary restaurant transformations in major U.S. cities.
- Los Angeles: A Fantastic Four-themed location at 6201 Hollywood Blvd. beginning November 17.
- Chicago: An X-Men-themed location at 10 West Chicago Ave. beginning November 17.
- New York City: An Avengers-themed location at 102 8th Ave. beginning November 18.
- Boston: A Doctor Doom-themed location at 209 N Harvard St. in Allston beginning November 18.
Dunkin says the four locations are expected to remain transformed through the first week of December, creating a promotional bridge into the film’s release month.
When does Avengers Doomsday come out?
Avengers Doomsday is scheduled to open exclusively in theatres on December 18, 2026.
The film is directed by Anthony and Joe Russo and written by Stephen McFeely.
Disney describes the story as a collision between heroes from three distinct universes facing an existential threat.
The announced cast includes members of the Avengers, the Fantastic Four and the X-Men, including Tatum’s Gambit, Ian McKellen, Patrick Stewart, James Marsden, Rebecca Romijn, Kelsey Grammer and Alan Cumming.
What the campaign reveals about Marvel’s rollout
The Dunkin promotion does not disclose new plot details or confirm how Gambit and H.E.R.B.I.E. fit into the film’s story.
It does, however, reinforce the movie’s central marketing strategy: bringing together characters associated with multiple Marvel eras and teams before the theatrical launch.
The campaign also places Gambit alongside the Fantastic Four, a pairing that reflects the broader crossover premise already signalled by the film’s official cast and special look.
For viewers in Canada, the most relevant confirmed information remains the December 18 theatrical release date.
Details about Canadian screenings, advance tickets and local promotional partnerships may vary by theatre chain and region.
What happens next?
Dunkin’s themed locations are scheduled to launch in Los Angeles and Chicago on November 17, followed by the New York and Boston activations on November 18.
The restaurant campaign and limited-edition products are expected to remain available only for a limited period, with individual stock levels determined by participating locations.
Marvel has not announced that the Dunkin commercial represents a new Avengers Doomsday trailer or a separate film scene.
For now, it functions as an official tie-in campaign ahead of the movie’s December release.
