10 Things You Need To Know About Avengers: Infinity War

10. Thor Gets A New Weapon

Marvel Studios dropped a video last week that announced the commencement of shooting on Infinity War, and one of the more interesting images in the clip was concept art from the movie, of Thor fighting alongside Rocket Raccoon.

As if that wasn't cool enough, we can see that Thor isn't in fact wielding Mjolnir, but it rather looks like Jarnbjorn, an axe Thor used in the comics prior to obtaining the Hammer to End All Hammers.

It's known that much of Thor: Ragnarok's plot involves the Asgardian being separated from Mjolnir, so it's entirely possible that he isn't able to get it back in time for Infinity War, which is also a clever way of nerfing The Avengers' overall power during their first encounter with Thanos.

He'll probably get it back in time for the inevitable rematch against Thanos in the fourth Avengers film, though.
