Its time for the Marvel Superhero Civil War! In the adaptation of the acclaimed story line, created by Mark Millar and Steve McNiven back in 2006, Marvel Studios will let the heroes of the MCU choose sides! In the comic book, it was all about this question: Should the superhero community reveal their secret identities to the government and become Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. following an incident that left many children dead due to a fight between super-powered beings?

It is very unlikely that we will see a close adaptation of the story, since there are currently no heroes with a secret identity in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Still, all hints towards that the heroes will gather around Captain America and Iron Man.

Shooting: April 2015
Release: May 6 2016

-Story
Synopsis

“Captain America: Civil War” picks up where “Avengers: Age of Ultron” left off, as Steve Rogers leads the new team of Avengers in their continued efforts to safeguard humanity. After another international incident involving the Avengers results in collateral damage, political pressure mounts to install a system of accountability and a governing body to determine when to enlist the services of the team. The new status quo fractures the Avengers while they try to protect the world from a new and nefarious villain.

Kevin Feige on the Story:

"Something happens, perhaps it’s cumulative for things that have happened though all of the movies leading up to this point. It has made the governments of the world say “we need to have some oversight of these guys. They need to report to somebody. So it becomes more… it falls under that umbrella, rather than “you have to take off your mask.” It’s not about the secret identity thing, as much as it is about, overall, who reports to who, and who can agree to oversight committee. Because as of now, in Avengers 2, there is no more security council, there is no SHIELD, obviously. Stark is paying for it, Captain America is running it, and things occur that will make governments begin to question."

[Crud]

Nice OP. I enjoyed the first Cap film the best. I hope Civil War has less silly action.

 

[DeathyBoy]

On your left AND right, Stark.

This film is going to be awesome. Cap is 2-0 quality wise, and the cast is stacked. Can't wait to see Winter Soldier beating the living Hell out of Iron Man.

 

[Blader]

Seems a bit early for this no? Avengers isn't even out yet and, iirc, Civil War doesn't start shooting til around April.

We had a Batman V Superman Thread like three (?) years in advance and recently got a lot of news for Civil War... I dunno, I thought it was appropiated since we also had a lot of talk in the Age of Ultron and in the MCU-Threadabout Cap 3

Since I wanted to deliver a good OP, I hope this one doesnt get closed now...

 

[ninjabat]

Little early, but since its shooting this year hopefully some casting news will drop soon.

Do you think the defenders could show up?

 

[Dalek]

Always with Cap.

 

[……forgetit]

Don't we know most of the cast already?

Probably not. At most we'll get a Daredevil cameo.

 

[J10]

Surprised you didn't list Iron Man under villains.

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

Made this just now. I'll make an Iron Man one later today.

 

[Secret Fawful]

Come on, man. Spidey isn't going to be in this movie. We passed January with no word whatsoever that Spidey was in Civil War.

 

[Dalek]

Surprised you didn't list Iron Man under villains.

If the rumor about what sets him off in this version of Civil War is true, it makes sense and it will be understandable.

Spoilerly/rumor/speculation:

Spoiler

Winter Soldier killed Howard Stark

 

[jon bones]

this movie is gonna be god-tier. can not wait.

is the Spidey thing still a rumor? i'd hate for him to be shoehorned in there. we need to leave as much screen time for T'Challa as possible.

 

[ninjabat]

Probably not. At most we'll get a Daredevil cameo.

I'll take it. Already accepted spidey is out though.

 

[DeathyBoy]

Made this just now. I'll make an Iron Man one later today.

DUDE...

 

[GAMEPROFF]

Come on, man. Spidey isn't going to be in this movie. We passed January with no word whatsoever that Spidey was in Civil War.

I am still not conviced, I didnt expected them to announce something regardless how their meeting ended.
When shooting starts and never someone in a Spider-Man costume shows up, I will delist him.

 

[block tower]

im too hyped for this flick

 

[Quick]

Made this just now. I'll make an Iron Man one later today.

Time to bring back signature.

makes more sense to keep him delisted until he's confirmed, lest the rumor overshadow the actual radness of this film

 

[Dicer]

Cap, always!!!

 

[ninjabat]

Don't we know most of the cast already?

Always room for more. Spider-Woman get in!

 

[GAMEPROFF]

OK, yeah, that makes sense, I will delist him.

 

[Orbis Tabula]

I feel like I haven't seen any mention of Falcon in any off this press stuff. Is he supposed to be in it?

 

[FeD.nL]

Wow very Nice OT!

i'm more excited for this one than for AoU. Phase 3 just feels like the end of the journey for Some of these characters and it starts off with a bang. Cant wait for it.

#teamStark here

 

[DoctorFling]

When was Zemo confirmed? Please be true...

 

[Dalek]

I feel like I haven't seen any mention of Falcon in any off this press stuff. Is he supposed to be in it?

He better be! Sucks that he isn't in AoU at all.

 

[GAMEPROFF]

When was Zemo confirmed? Please be true...

He wasnt directly confirmed, but he was listened in a Casting Call.

 

[Frog-fu]

Subbing.

He is in it.

He also teased about getting a new costume too.

“The new falcon suit is gonna be much better than the old Falcon suit; gotta rebuild.”

 

[Deleted member 102481]

#teamStark

so we know Widow, Iron Man, Captain, Buckey, Black Panther, Fury, Falcon and maybe Hawkeye are in this movie.

That is a lot of black superheros

 

[Deleted member 102481]

Honestly Cap 3 is going to be such a good movie. I hope the end credits scene has like just spiderman swinging around

 

[Quinnzel]

#teamMommyDaddystopfighting

Cant wait for this film.

 

[DrForester]

I would absolutely love if they went full asshole villain with Tony.

Edit: Oh, we need to pick sides.

Smeg off, Tony.

 

[Broken Joystick]

Love Stark the most but this time, it's gonna be

To think, this was originally going to release same day as Batman vs Superman.

 

[Neoxon]

#teamMommyDaddystopfighting

Cant wait for this film.

I instantly thought of this.

 

[rexor0717]

I don't even understand how you can't be on Cap's side.

 

[Drifters]

Is it wrong that I feel like this movie is going to be better than AoU? SOOOO HYPPPEEDDDD!!!

 

[Ein Bear]

Oh wow, those 'I'm with Cap/Iron Man' banners take me back.

Still not too sure how I feel about this. Winter Soldier was awesome, so they've definitely earned the benefit of the doubt, but the comic version of the storyline sucked hard, and I generally dislike 'the good guys fall out and fight' type stories.

 

[J10]

I would absolutely love if they went full asshole villain with Tony.

You know that's like the number one thing they got wrong the first time, right?

 

[Neoxon]

 

[Haloid1177]

I don't even understand how you can't be on Cap's side.

Because RDJ > Chris Evans.

 

[GAMEPROFF]

Oh wow, those 'I'm with Cap/Iron Man' banners take me back.

I hope, we get a renaissance of all the joke-banners, too

 

[DrForester]

You know that's like the number one thing they got wrong the first time, right?

Yes. Hence why I would LOVE to see it.

edit: Rereading your comment.

I didn't have a big deal with Tony being a despicable person in Civil War. However, i didn't like them trying to paint this piece of shit as the good guy. If the movie goes full asshole, and does make him the villain I will be fine with it.

 

[obin_gam]

I think there's something wrong with the code in the OP. Every picture is inlined way to much to the right :/ All I get is unused space.

EDIT: Here's a screenshot

Should it really look like this?

 

[Angelus Errare]

Are the images in OP messed up for anyone else or just me? They're outside of the forum div container entirely.

 

[Broken Joystick]

Hell naw.

Mmmph
