We’re still a year out from the new “Avengers”, errrr, I mean “Captain America: Civil War” flick, but lots of pictures have been appearing online from its location shooting. With all of the various superheroes appearing in this one, it really does feel like a new “Avengers” film. And I’m okay with that.
Most excitingly, the new incarnation of Spider-man will make his first appearance in the film. As of right now, Asa Butterfield (Hugo, Ender’s Game) is the frontrunner for the part. It will be interesting to see how they handle the whole thing and how they differentiate this Spider-man from the others.

Here’s a synopsis:
“Directed by Anthony & Joe Russo from a screenplay by Christopher Markus & Stephen McFeely, Captain America: Civil War picks up where Avengers: Age of Ultron left off, as Steve Rogers (Chris Evans) 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.
Starring 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, and Martin Freeman.”
“Captain America: Civil War” hits theaters on May 6, 2016.
