AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR Set Photos Seemingly Confirm The Presence Of Corvus Glaive & The Black Order
Thanos is coming to Earth, and it looks like he's not coming alone as new set photos have surfaced, seemingly confirming the introduction of the Black Order to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Check it out!
After catching a brief look at Paul Bettany as The Vision coming under attack last week, by a mysterious group of villains, that were decked out in all-black costumes, a much better look at one of them has surfaced and it just may confirm a very popular fan theory.
A Twitter user has posted new photos and a new video from the Avengers: Infinity War set in Edinburgh, Scotland, offering our best look yet at an unidentified villain and while, the actor is in a mo-cap suit, the intricately designed staff in his right hand might just confirm his identity as it bears a striking similarity to the weapon Corvus Glaive of the Black Order wields in the comics.
It's hard to tell what he wants with the Vision, but if we had to wager a guess, he's likely been assigned by the Mad Titan, along with the rest of the Order, to recover the Mind Stone. The photos also more or less reveal that these villains will be entirely CGI, meaning it's unlikely we'll hear about any actors being cast to provide the voices for these roles until much later in the production process.
Check out the photos below:
Plus, more photos of The Vision have surfaced and Elizabeth Olsen has arrived on set, which probably means the stunt double we saw a few weeks back was actually the Scarlet Witch and that she'll have a big part to play in the battle to save Vision.
How big of a threat does Thanos pose, you ask? Big enough to span two epic films, beginning with Marvel’s “Avengers: Infinity War Part 1” on May 4, 2018, and concluding in Marvel’s “Avengers: Infinity War Part 2” on May 3, 2019 for one massive cinematic event.
“We’ve always had a plan since Nick Fury broke into Tony Stark’s house and told him he’s part of a bigger universe," recalled Feige. "'Avengers: Infinity War Part 1' is the beginning of the culmination of everything that has come before."
