Wakanda confronts the enemy at the gates in this all-new action shot for Avengers: Infinity War.
Coming to us by way of Total Film (h/t CBM), this particular image appears to have been captured just before Earth’s Mightiest Heroes charge into battle against those six-armed mutants known as Outriders, which will presumably be operating at the behest of the Black Order – namely Corvus Glaive, Proxima Midnight, Cull Obsidian and Ebony Maw.
As for today’s reveal, from left to right you’ll see Black Panther duo Okoye (The Walking Dead‘s Danai Gurira) and T’Challa (Chadwick Boseman) standing shoulder-to-shoulder with Captain America/Nomad (Chris Evans), the blonde Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson), and a rejuvenated Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan), who spent his early days in Wakanda under intense observation, as Letitia Wright’s Shuri began cleansing his brain of HYDRA.
And by the looks of things, Shuri has worked her magic, as Bucky appears to be nearing full health. Hell, he’s even equipped with his new bionic arm!
Check it out in the gallery down below (along with those recently released character posters):
Not pictured here is Bruce Banner’s Hulk, who, in a textbook example of poetic irony, is expected to pilot the famous Hulkbuster armor (AKA the Mark XLIV) when the lights go down on April 27th.
And no, you read that right; Avengers: Infinity War has officially relocated, after Disney chose to bring the sequel’s U.S. launch date into alignment with its release overseas.
Perhaps more than anything else, this last-minute change of plans ought to allay fears of encountering any spoiler-sensitive material ahead of time, as it’s nigh on certain that the Internet will be teeming with all sorts of in-depth breakdowns and observations as soon as the credits roll, by which point Marvel will begin stoking the embers of excitement for Ant-Man and the Wasp‘s release on July 6th.
