Here are the stunning new ‘Avengers: Infinity War’ film posters just released by Marvel

Things are really heating up in the countdown to the release of Marvel’s Avengers: Infinity War. We’ve had awesome fan-made mash-up trailers and hilarious cross-over memes, but now we’ve got something a bit meatier to sink our teeth into: a whole bunch of colourful new posters for the film. And they seem to tell us a fair amount, especially about the all-important Infinity Stones, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

As you’ll be able to tell from the posters below, each character is grouped according to colour, which also corresponds to one of the primary stones: the Mind Stone, the Space Stone, the Power Stone, the Time Stone and the Reality Stone (the Soul Stone is still missing, of course). So does this suggest these characters will team up with each other in the next movie as they battle the evil Thanos (Josh Brolin) to find the elusive sixth stone? We’ll find out when the movie comes out on 27 April.   

In the blue corner…

In this poster, which corresponds to the Space Stone, we can see Captain America (Chris Evans), The Winter Soldier (Sebastian Stan), Guardians of the Galaxy’s Nebula (Karen Gillan), Mantis (Pom Klementieff) and Black Panther’s Shuri (Letitia Wright).  

In the purple corner…

Representing the Power Stone, in this poster we have Thor (Chris Hemsworth), Guardian of the Galaxy’s Star-Lord (Chris Pratt), Gamora (Zoe Saldana), Groot (Vin Diesel) and Rocket Racoon (Bradley Cooper).

In the green corner…

In the Time Stone poster (possibly the coolest one), we can see Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson), the Hulk (Mark Ruffalo), Black Panther (Chadwick Boseman) and Okoye (Danai Gurira).

In the yellow corner…

This poster paying homage to the Mind Stone features Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen), Falcon (Anthony Mackie), War Machine (Don Cheadle) and The Vision (Paul Bettany). 

In the red corner…

The final poster, representing the Reality Stone, includes Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.), Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch), Spider-Man (Tom Holland) and Doctor Strange’s colleague Wong (Benedict Wong).
