Today's D23 Expo provided fans with the best clues yet as to what to expect in Avengers: Infinity War. And along the way, it provided a pretty sweet moment with the film's antagonist.

Josh Brolin, who plays the titan Thanos in the upcoming film, was on hand for the festivities, and got a pretty fantastic photo op with the character's Infinity Gauntlet. You can check it out below.

Brolin attended the expo to help present Infinity War's first teaser trailer during Marvel Studios' panel. He also appeared at the unveiling of the Black Order, Thanos' group of henchmen in the film, which you can see in the background of the photo.

This isn't the only look at a gauntlet-wielding Thanos that D23 attendees have been treated to today, with a concept art poster making the rounds earlier.

We'll find out when Avengers: Infinity War premieres in theaters on May 4, 2018.
