Marvel fans have spotted a continuity error inAvengers: Infinity War– and it involves Tony Stark’s mustache.

As pointed out by aReddituser, Iron Man’s facial hair seemingly changes while he’s facing off against Thanos towards the climax of the movie. In two stills posted side by side, his facial hair looks much thicker and his mustache is a slightly different shape in one image than in the other. Of course, this is likely to be the result of reshoots, but fans found the mistake pretty funny all the same.

“They just looked at Cavill in Justice League and thought ‘yeah, probs best to just leave it alone tbh,'“quippedone user, referring to Warner Bros. needing to edit out Henry Cavill’sMission: Impossible – Falloutmustache inJustice Leaguereshoots.

“Side effect of him trying to shave half of all life in the universe,“saidanother. “Thanos was not fucking around with the reality stone,“wroteanother Redditor, while someone elsereplied: “No, that’s just Thanos’ aura. His baldness is so intimidating people close by begin rapidly losing hair.”
