The venture marks KFC's largest global collaboration yet with 100 participating countries
LAUSANNE, Switzerland, Nov. 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- KFC today announced its boldest collaboration to date: a first-ever global venture with Marvel Studios' "Avengers: Doomsday", in cinemas globally 18 December. It unites the most iconic chicken brand with the MCU's newest villain – Doctor Doom – around a new menu worthy of his name.
Available beginning 9 November in select markets and through January 2027, KFC's new Doctor Doom-inspired menu includes a lineup of limited time food and drinks, packaging, exclusive Marvel-inspired KFC collectible figurines, and in-store activations, all designed to transport fans to the Avengers universe. "This is KFC's most expansive joint venture to date, and we can't wait to welcome guests into our extension of the MCU," said Scott Mezvinsky, Global CEO, KFC. "We're not just teaming up with the most anticipated movie of the decade. We're leaning into its biggest, baddest character, and delivering a menu worthy of the moment. This isn't just about chicken – it's about putting KFC at the heart of a global cultural phenomenon in the most epic way we could." By joining forces with MCU fandom, KFC is giving the community an opportunity to celebrate two cultural icons and build on the anticipation for Marvel Studios' "Avengers: Doomsday," which brings one of Marvel's most iconic and long-awaited characters to the big screen. "Avengers: Doomsday" brings together some of the most iconic characters in our storytelling history, and we're always looking for creative ways to extend that excitement beyond the screen," said Holly Frank, VP, Global Marketing Partnerships & Promotions at Disney. "We're thrilled to be working with KFC on a fun, imaginative campaign that taps into the anticipation of Doctor Doom's arrival, giving fans a unique way to connect with the film ahead of its release in cinemas." The limited-time menu offerings feature a bold lineup of flavors, including Doom Cola sauce – a sweet, sticky caramelized cola glaze with light smoky BBQ notes – alongside a Smoky Green Mayo, and Doom Dust, a vibrant green seasoning with smoky charred lime and chili. Customers can pair these with their favorite KFC items to experience them in a whole new way. KFC's "Doomified" menu items (available in select markets) include:
In addition to the limited-time menu, enthusiasts in select markets can walk away with an exclusive Colonel Sanders Cosplay Collection figurine, with any Doom menu purchase, while supplies last. Five looks are available to collect, each reimagining the Colonel with looks inspired by their favorite "Avengers: Doomsday" characters -- designed to drive repeat visits and social sharing throughout the campaign. All "Doomified" menu items also come in limited-edition packaging – a dark, iron-riveted design featuring Doctor Doom's mask – carrying the "Avengers: Doomsday" and KFC branding throughout. The campaign's creative idea mirrors its cultural ambition. Doctor Doom is one of the most iconic Marvel supervillains, so it only made sense for KFC to strike a deal with him on behalf of its guests. The resulting campaign video, running globally in 15- and 30-second formats, imagines Doctor Doom looking out over New York City after an epic battle with the Avengers, where every restaurant has been reduced to rubble, except one KFC – standing completely untouched. All it had to do was create a menu worthy of his name. The "Doomified" menu is available in KFC locations across 100+ countries. It will not be available in the United States, India or China.
