Disney and Marvel Studios have just about perfected the art of secrecy when it comes to their upcoming movies. They have also developed quite the fine art of trolling fans with seemingly inoculate teases on social media. The Russo Bros. have taken it to a new level with ‘random’ pictures that supposedly have clues to some information on the upcoming, still untitled Avengers 4.
These pictures have whipped up fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe into a frantic frenzy, turning everyone into junior detectives, determined to solve the mystery presented by the directing duo. The latest theories revolve around the Russos Instagram post titled ‘Look hard…’

Personally, I see potentially three people. One in the foreground (Thanos?), someone behind them on the left (Nebula?), and a potentially shirtless person on the right behind the middle guy. Credit to da_nif7y for the main image. from r/marvelstudios

Fans have already noticed that the supposed proton cannon from another leak is visible. It should also be noted that that same cannon can be seen in Infinity War when War Machine is addressing the World Council.
The other thing of note in the picture is what seems to be a poster of some sorts. Many have speculated that this is potentially the first official movie poster for Avengers 4, so much so that they have tried to enhance the photo and decipher what exactly is in the photo. Some theories say its Captain Marvel amongst a team, others say its Thanos, Nebula, and a shirtless third party. At the end of the day, however, there is no real way to tell, as it is far too blurry to actually see anything of value.
Another picture being deciphered is this one:

Looked like a coffin so that’s scary. But also reminds me of this.
Wait…

I realised something. While this could be a water bottle, it also looks like a condenser microphone which is often used in studios.
So basically, by saying “wrapped”, the Russos could be saying that they’ve finished filming and moving on to voice dubbing in post-production. pic.twitter.com/BqWXn1kWky

Unfortunately, it would seem that we won’t actually know anything until The Russos, Marvel Studios, and Disney want us to know something. Until that time, fans will continue to postulate theories ranging from the sensical to the downright insane.
