Captain Avengers: Civil War starts shooting - Cast and synopsis confirmed
- Thread starter duckroll
- Start date
Well, Anthony Mackie and Don Cheadle are technically in
Age of Ultron but they're used very sparingly
Well Civil War is really only known for one thing(yes there are many other things I know) and that is Stark vs Rogers
Way too soon to be escalating her to that level.
Mackie will almost certainly have a major role, given his prominence in Cap's inner circle.

It's going to be interesting to see how they fit all of them in. It's a bloody great cast though. Hope Bucky gets a prominent role.
Yeah if they agree to those kind of bit parts it could be a non-issue.

Aw Damn that really sucks
Oh, for sure. I wasn't speaking to the size of his role in Civil War, only that other heroes are in the AoU cast but have smaller roles.

Feeling kind of meh about this movie.... was looking forward to a movie more like Winter Soldier, instead this is Avengers 2.5 
If they look into the Winter Soldier character again it's guaranteed to be quite short because "yay we got Downey in this, he needs even more screen time"....
I loved Avengers AoU, but please at least try to keep the characters seperated in their own movies.

I don't see how they could possibly fit The Leader into this already packed movie. Thunderbolt Ross is there because of what happened with Hulk in AOU, and its highly likely that Freeman is playing Everett K. Ross as Faraci has stated he'll also appear in Black Panther.
That loose end continues to bother me.
Granted, I want some She-Hulk action too. The Avengers need a good lawyer, right?
No reason they wouldn't bring back a Tim Nelson for that.
I'm so bummed we still haven't seen abomination in another movie

I thought Nelson went over to fox to play Mole Man

I always got the impression that Stark and Cap were always basically one match away from the entire powder keg exploding between them. They were gonna fight in Avengers. Age of Ultron stuff. One big incident would definitely cause an unbreakable rift. They just have too many ideological differences.

Probably because we have a different Banner now. They assume it's seperate.

They've also referenced it numerous times in Iron Man 2, Avengers, The Consultant, SHIELD and Ultron.

Yeah, they straight up show scenes from it during Avengers. Why do people think it's not canon?
And Daredevil.
Oh you're right. Dunno what that means for his marvel contact though

Related to Civil War.
Christopher Markus & Stephen McFeely will write Marvel’s “Avengers: Infinity War – Part 1” and “Avengers: Infinity War – Part 2”

All ready starting to see a few "that's too many Avengers for a Captain America movie" articles around the internet.
Ain'ters gonna ain't, but I'm psyched.
And we still don't know how many of them are going to be involved in the main storyline and how many are just going to be cameo level. It makes me more excited for Ant-Man, though, knowing that he's in this.

Yeah, I'm pretty stoked. They must have a kickass vision for Phase 3.
The Ruffalo Banner feels like a very different take than Ed Norton and none of the character beats remained. Not that Hulk 08 had that many beats to begin with, given the origin story was completely glossed over.
Incredible Hulk is weirdly both canon and completely ignored by the MCU. probably rightfully so, though I think the first half of 08 Hulk is actually a pretty good film and it's a shame the rights and general poor box office performance means we won't get a proper MCU Hulk film for a while, if ever. Especially because Ruffalo's Hulk, while comically underwritten (and, generally, just reduced to yet another a clumsily written plot device without the benefit of standalone films), is a decent performance. Plus, I just like Ruffalo as an actor.

Im really really hoping the guardians don't show up until infinity war at the earliest

I wouldn't be surprised if they end up on Earth or at least head in that direction at the end of Guardians 2.

James Gunn makes it sound like that's the plan.

The absence of Daredevil in Civil War is a shame. He's so close to the devastation that occurred in New York (not just in Avengers, but in Hulk as well), that If one of the central themes of Civil War is going to be of accountability, then it just makes sense to include a perspective of a hero who's so close to the ground, representing the concerns of the little people -- the ones the tv show says the Avengers "forgot about".
TWS is still my fave Marvel movie. i'm pretty happy about this.
They definitely shouldn't.
And when they come, they should bring Venom with them by accident.
I agree and this would be incredibly logical and consistent, but I'm still worried. Loved AoU though, and Winter Soldier totally delivered so this SHOULD be a formula for success.
Right, self?
They recast Rhodey as well after IM1 too though. I mean the fact there was Avengers setup, and a direct appearance by Stark himself in Hulk made it pretty obvious it was tied into the MCU.

I thought the fact it came after Iron Man, which was the start of MCU, made it clear that it was part of it. Everything since then has been canon.

Its a captain America movie with the Avengers as supporting characters. Not that hard to understand.

Oh shiiiiiiit. Full circleeeeeeeeee
Yup. I think people need to keep their expectations in check.

Exactly, there is tons of reasons why it seemed to be clearly part of the MCU and no reasons to assume it wasn't. Which makes the "I guess The Incredible Hulk is part of the MCU canon now" posts so bizarre.
