10 MCU Scenes You Didn't Realise Were Tricking You

Quite possibly ranking as the greatest superhero entrance in the history of cinema, Thor's shocking (in more ways than one) arrival late in the Battle of Wakanda day was enough to leave most passionate MCU supporters in need of a lie down.

But in the thick of this electric reinforcement actually came a subtle piece of trickery that next to no one understandably caught during the action itself.

In a move that no doubt left Chris Hemsworth wondering why he bothered putting himself through his usual array of relentless workouts in order to get in God of Thunder shape for the flick, The Russo Brothers actually opted to cover up the Australian's bulging biceps digitally in post-production.

Behind the scenes shots of the Infinity War shoot very much showcase the Thor actor strutting around with his guns out en-route to missing Thanos' head. But, either due to not being that impressed by the practical alternative costume's sleeves or feeling that Hemsworth's bare godly arms just weren't right for that particular moment, the decision was ultimately made to subtly lace a CGI sleeve (via red dots on his limbs) over these parts of his god bod.
