Rumour has it that the new Captain America film might be based on the event series “Civil War”, in which the major players include Iron Man, Captain America, New Avengers, New Warriors, Fantastic Four, and Spider-Man. In the comic series, the superheroes in the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe were divided into two sides: one that supports the government’s registration program for superhumans and one that opposes the program.
The one who supports the program will follow Iron Man’s lead while the one who opposes will follow Captain America’s lead instead. It was also rumoured that Captain America’s presumed death might take place in “Captain America 3” and Winter Soldier will take over as Captain America for a short period of time.
Robert Downey Jr is not the only that has joined cast of “Captain America 3” as Jeremy Renner might reprise his role as Hawkeye in the film as well. “Captain America 3” is one of the movies that have been included in the Phase Three of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and it is scheduled for release on May 6, 2016.
