AceShowbiz - It looks like the remaining Avengers need all the force they have in their next showdown with Thanos. A new leaked photo of "Avengers 4" reveals Gwyneth Paltrow putting on Rescue armor, hinting that her character Pepper Potts will join the battle at some point in the upcoming movie.
It's unclear where the picture came from since it's not posted on Paltrow's Instagram account. The photo features the actress in selfie mode, with a giant green screen behind her. The suit is dominated in purple and silver, covering her up to her neck, but she's not wearing the helmet.
Paltrow previously teased about her stunt in the follow-up to "Avengers: Infinity War" when she posted a snap of her wearing a mo-cap suit. Later, speculations arose about the Rescue armor when some toy designs revealed a mystery character clad in a new, purple armor similar to Tony Stark's.
Should the rumors be true, it wouldn't be the first time Pepper suits up in one of Tony-created armors. The CEO of Stark Industries previously gained control of the Mark 42 armor in "Iron Man 3" and rescued Tony from destruction when Mandarin attacked his house.
Robert Downey Jr. will reprise his role as Tony Stark a.k.a. Iron Man in "Avengers 4", with Chris Evans (Captain America), Scarlett Johansson (Black Widow), Chris Hemsworth (Thor), Mark Ruffalo (Hulk), Jeremy Renner (Hawkeye), Paul Rudd (Ant-Man) and Josh Brolin (Thanos) also returning.
Directed by Anthony and Joe Russo, the still-untitled Avengers movie is set for a May 3, 2019 release in the United States.
A newest theory suggests that the movie's title may have been revealed in "Avengers: Age of Ultron". In the third movie, Elizabeth Olsen's Scarlet Witch claims she saw Annihilation in Ultron's (Paul Bettany) mind, hence "Annihilation" comes up as a possible subtitle for the upcoming film.
