Finally, after months of speculation, Marvel has released the official trailer for the upcoming sequel Captain America: Civil War. It was revealed late night on Jimmy Kimmel Live and has given us a look into the next Marvel outing.
We discus the awesome footage including our thoughts on the much anticipated film, from the characters to story aspects; along with some hilarious banter.
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. - Marvel.com
