Explained simply
Avengers: Endgame was Marvel's flagship film from 2019, a culmination of years of interconnected superhero stories. The studio is now releasing it again with four extra scenes woven in, designed to connect it to the next Avengers film called Doomsday, arriving in December. These new scenes act as a bridge between the old film and what audiences will see next.
Marvel's recent films have introduced the concept of a multiverse, in which multiple versions of reality exist at once. This allows superheroes from different storylines and universes to appear in the same film, creating new combinations and team-ups. The new footage in the re-release expands on these multiverse ideas and shows how they might lead to the events of Doomsday.
The additional scenes feature various established characters and introduce Doctor Doom, who will play an important role in Marvel's next chapter. By inserting these clips into the original film, Marvel is setting up key pieces of its story before the new Avengers film arrives in cinemas.
