CinemaCon is the world's largest gathering of movie theater chains and studio representatives, taking place in Las Vegas, Nevada. Following an extensive round of panels from the biggest studios in the world, the last of these presentations may yet be the biggest of them all.

The crown jewel of this presentation is expected to be Marvel Studios' Avengers: Doomsday, which is predicted to be the biggest movie released in 2026. While details on the presentation have not been confirmed, Disney is predicted to deliver something big for the fifth Avengers movie.
Additionally, one of the studio's next big releases is The Mandalorian and Grogu on May 22, which will be the first Star Wars movie released in theaters since 2019's Episode IX — The Rise of Skywalker.

Additionally, Disney may provide a new look at Toy Story 5, which will be the first new addition to the franchise since 2019's Toy Story 4. Woody and Buzz will be back together, as they and the other toys have to fight the rise of technology in young Bonnie's life.
