Rumour

Robert Downey Jr seems to be teasing a new, pretty outrageous Iron Man suit design for Infinity War - combining his tech with a decidedly Asgardian design.

The actor shared the image of the Asgardian Uru armor on Facebook, prompting fans to suggest that the armour - or a version of it - will appear in the upcoming Avengers ensemble.

Rating: 7/10

We know that Infinity War will see the Avengers off-world for at least part of its plot - as that's where they will meet the Guardians - so Stark visiting Asgard fits. And in the comics, he has already used Uru - the material that Mjolnir is made of - to develop a new suit of armour at Odin's behest.

Him doing that to fortify against Thanos' impending attack would make lots of sense, and it could mean we'd get to see an inversion of the comic book Thorbuster suit (assuming he has no reason to fight The God Of Thunder himself).
