Avengers: Infinity War - 10 Important Details In The New Posters

9. Black Widow Has Gone Blonde

Like Cap growing his beard, Black Widow has undergone a big image change for Infinity War.

Having sat on the fence a little too much in Captain America: Civil War, Black Widow was driven underground by a furious Tony Stark who seemed to take her betrayal of his confidence considerably worse than Bucky killing his parents and Captain America still choosing him.

Admittedly, she was sent underground by the Avengers leader to protect her from the vengeful government forces who would come for her before Tony had his change of heart about Bucky, but she still had to take the threat seriously.

That has clearly manifested in her rocking the platinum blonde look: and the suggestion is definitely that the schism between her (and her fellow exiled superheroes) and the governments still exists.

Also, it's a nice little nod to rival Black Widow Yelena Belova who replaced Natasha when she went rogue and has clashed with her...
