In the cinema's foyer along Hollywood Boulevard on May 1, 2019, there was the damaged Iron Man Mark 50 helmet from Avengers: Endgame in the spotlight, with the eye socket illuminated. In the movie Robert Downey Jr.'s 'Tony Stark' records what he think are his dying words into the helmet when he's floating in space.

  1. The Infinity Gauntlet shown can't be the fake one that was in Odin's Vault from the first Thor movie. That Infinity Gauntlet is right handed. This is later reaffirmed in the third Thor movie, Thor: Ragnarok when Hela Pushes it over stating that it is fake. Whereas the real Infinity Gauntlet and the one shown in the picture above is left handed. So it could be the real Infinity Gauntlet.
