With Marvel keeping a tight lid on anything to do with Avengers 4, it’s up to fans to drum up hype for the movie themselves. Take this new poster, for example, as created by @Midiya42. Drawing inspiration from the traumatic ending of Avengers: Infinity War, the one-sheet unites the few heroes that survived Thanos’ deadly finger snap.
That’d be Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, Black Widow, Hulk, War Machine, Rocket and Nebula. Of course, Captain Marvel was also revealed to be out there in the post-credits scene, while Scott Lang managed to survive Ant-Man and the Wasp‘s final sequence and Hawkeye appeared in neither movie but is confirmed to be showing up in Avengers 4. As such, all three heroes are included here, too.
As you can see below, the poster takes inspiration from the leaked concept art for the movie, which arrived back in June. This revealed that Steve Rogers would return to his clean-shaven look, War Machine would get an upgrade and Hulk would finally put on some clothes. Natasha’s ponytail is also implied in the artwork, while Hawkeye’s mohawk, on the other hand, has been revealed via set photos of Jeremy Renner.
The artist has also made a decision on what Avengers 4 will be called here. Marvel’s being bizarrely quiet about its title, but a few theories have done the rounds, including “Endgame,” which is a oft-suggested one as it ties in with something Doctor Strange said just before he turned to dust: “we’re in the endgame now.” Seeing as Strange’s vision of the future is expected to be key to the sequel, this title could hold a lot of weight.
Not all signs point to this being the actual moniker of Avengers 4, though, as other ideas are floating around, too. At this rate, though, we honestly wouldn’t be surprised if the studio keeps it a secret until Captain Marvel arrives in March.
