Earlier today at D23, Chris Evans (Captain America) and Anthony Mackie (The Falcon) took the stage to talk with the press, they went on to discuss the battle between the Avengers in Captain America Civil War.
Since it’s a war, will the gloves come off when heroes fight? Mackie was quizzed, he replied: “Nah, it’s not MMA. We definitely have gloves on. It’s more a family dispute, and that’s what so great about this movie and the characters and how they work together.
It’s more so when you have a sibling rivalry. The reason why people can relate to these characters so much, is because they can relate to what they’re going through.
Everybody’s fought with one of their siblings or one of their friends and wanted to make up with them but couldn’t figure out how to do it and that’s kind of how Civil War works.”
Evans was quick to agree, he adds: “Well said. I feel like families – you have more struggles with the people you love because you care about them.
You can’t leave them, you have to make this work. It just feels like when you have a family dynamic of people that you may not get along with, but you can’t just cut them out of your life, that’s what makes the stakes so high.”
When asked what new elements can we expect from the movie, Mackie said: “Our uniforms are new, and we have more action sequences done in a more broader capacity.”
Evans adds, “Marvel has a lot of balls in the air, you’ve got a lot of movies that they’re trying to bring together.
The truth is, there’s a lot of things they’re trying to marry, and when you have characters like Falcon and Winter Soldier these movies are really effective in progressing those storylines, even in just this movie alone, the relationship with Cap and Falcon and Winter Soldier.”
The film stars Chris Evans, Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson, Sebastian Stan, Anthony Mackie, Paul Bettany, Jeremy Renner, Don Cheadle, Elizabeth Olsen, Paul Rudd, Chadwick Boseman, Emily VanCamp, Daniel Brühl, Frank Grillo, William Hurt, Martin Freeman, Tom Holland
