Were really getting cabin fever now as we await the hotly anticipated Avengers 4.

Were dissecting every little detail that might give us not only a little closure of the last chapter, with any sort of hint of what may come in the yet-to-be-titled next coming.

One Reddit user who goes by the moniker OblivionCv3 has pointed out one small fact about the perceived villain of the latest movie, Thanos (played by Josh Brolin) and they believe theyve discovered his hair appeared to grow a bit in between his first and last scenes in this years film.

What does this meeeean?

Posting a side by side comparison of his barnet that may or may not have sprouted a few extra follicles, commenters replied with their own hypothesis.

OblivionCv3 wrote: If you expand the image you can see that Thanos was completely bald in his first scene, but by the final scene he has some stubble on his head. Just a nice detail that the filmmakers kept their eye on.

Some thought it was merely dirt.

Others agreed it did look like he was a little stubbly – he was very busy, no time to shave – but, on the whole, the majority of people just had a whole lot of questions about his grooming routine.

Which are fair. Were all very curious.

One asked: Do you think he stopped to take a shower before teleporting to Wakanda?, as one replied: He has the Time Stone, its not like he cant afford to take a few minutes.

Another mused: What kind of shaving cream do you think Thanos uses before he goes on an odyssey to annihilate half of all life?

A curious fan took things further, as they replied: I for one am very interested in his daily routine, does he shave and shower, does he eat or exercise?

It comes after one writer believed they cracked one code and proffered the next Avengers – which Mark Ruffalo tried to spoil, earning him a right hulking firing by bosses, the Russo brothers.

Writer Daniel R put forth his own belief earlier this week that were going to see the Avengers five years after the fact, which we really werent prepared for.

He wrote on Twitter: Avengers 4 starts YEARS after Infinity War. Not just a few months later as some people were hoping for. Sorry guys.

When someone asked how many years, and suggested the timeline of five years, Daniel R confirmed it was indeed five.

Which was very convenient there.

How he knows this, we can only imagine – but well add this morsel of intel to the brain bank anyway as we try to figure out what Thanos has been up to in that time.

Is he still chilling on his planet in the sun?

Has he retired? Kids?

Hows the beard coming along?

Avengers 4 is in cinemas in 2019.
