When Captain America: Civil War was on the way, a Twitter account with the handle @Russo_Brothers shared cryptic images which fans suspected to be teases of the Marvel super hero brawler flick. As it turned out, each of the images tweeted by the account was a look at the Marvel Studios production, but never really enough to make out what was going on in them until having seen the film.

After watching Captain America: Civil War, ComicBook.com was able to pinpoint each image's relation to the movie.

Now, the Twitter account is at it again with possible teases for Avengers: Infinity War, which the Russo Brothers are helming on the heels of their massively successful outing with Civil War.

A new photo tweeted from the account this morning might offer up another new look at the Avengers next big screen ensemble.

This photo appears to be the place where Thanos retrieved the Infinity Gauntlet in the post-credits sequence of Avengers: Age of Ultron. "Fine, I'll do it myself," Thanos said in the scene. While many suspect the location to be Odin's vault because the production teams put a version of the Infinity Gauntlet in a blink-and-you'll-miss-it sequence from Thor, Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige went on record to rule out Thanos creeping into Asgard. This was a different glove.

The possibility remains that this shot is from another part of Avengers: Infinity War but we probably won't find out for sure until May of 2018.

Previously, the Russo Brothers twitter account shared another image which may be tied to Infinity War, though it could be the slightest relation -- Civil War's teases included a hyper-close-up shot of the album cover which included Spider-Man's "Left Hand Free" introductory tune from Alt-J.
