The first trailer for “Captain America: Civil War” premiered tonight on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” Robert Downey Jr. and Chris Evans appeared on the show to present the new trailer.
And before you ask – no, Tom Holland’s incarnation of Spider-Man doesn’t make an appearance quite yet. I’m sure they’re holding his unveiling back for the final trailer, if not the film itself.
But we do get our first glimpse at Chadwick Boseman as Black Panther. And we see the return of William Hurt’s General Thaddeus Ross, a role he first portrayed in the film “The Incredible Hulk” back in 2008.
In this new “Captain America” film, Steve Rogers and Tony Stark find themselves on opposite sides of the fence as the government tries to regulate superheroes. Stark is for the new measures while Rogers opposes them. All superheroes are then forced to take sides.
I know, it all sounds very political, but I guarantee lots of stuff gets blown up. Just watch the trailer. Screenshots and new posters follow. (The very last one I cobbled together. I liked the pic and thought it would make for a cool looking banner poster).
Mark your calendars for May 6, 2016.
