Just like the comic book series, Civil War by Mark Millar and Steve McNiven, the ending of Captain America: Civil War will be controversial.
Speaking with Empire, director Joe Russo said, “The consequences of Civil War will have an even more significant impact [than The Winter Soldier]. In Civil War, we’re going to change the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s Psychology, and it’s an extreme shift.
“Winter Soldier was a political thriller; this is a psychological thriller.” There have been plenty of rumors on how Civil War will end, but Anthony drops the hints on how the film will end, “a very dramatic ending that will be controversial for a lot of people.”
The magazine goes on to confirm that the audience who were lucky enough to watch the film have been split between Team Cap and Team Iron Man.
Additionally, Gwyneth Paltrow (Pepper Potts) will also return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe for the first time since Iron Man 3 (2013).
“Marvel’s Captain America: Civil War finds Steve Rogers leading the newly formed team of Avengers in their continued efforts to safeguard humanity.
But after another incident involving the Avengers results in collateral damage, political pressure mounts to install a system of accountability, headed by a governing body to oversee and direct the team.
The new status quo fractures the Avengers, resulting in two camps—one led by Steve Rogers and his desire for the Avengers to remain free to defend humanity without government interference, and the other following Tony Stark’s surprising decision to support government oversight and accountability.”
The film features an ensemble cast that includes Chris Evans, Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson, Sebastian Stan, Anthony Mackie, Emily VanCamp, Don Cheadle, Jeremy Renner, Chadwick Boseman, Paul Bettany, Elizabeth Olsen, Paul Rudd, Frank Grillo, Daniel Brühl, and William Hurt.
It is intended to be the sequel to 2011’s Captain America: The First Avenger and 2014’s Captain America: The Winter Soldier, and the thirteenth installment of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).
Directed by Anthony and Joe Russo, with a screenplay by Christopher Markus & Stephen McFeely.
Captain America: Civil War is scheduled to be released on May 6, 2016, in 3D and IMAX 3D.
