CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR - New Photo and Intriguing Scene Description
The Captain America: Civil War news continues to roll in! We've got a new photo featuring Tony Stark and Captain America having a serious heart to heart talk. The two will end up going their separate ways and they're going to beat the living shit out of each other. This falling out is all because the government wants control over superheroes, and this is something that Robert Downey Jr. talks about in an interview with EW. Here he explains that he agrees with Iron Man what the government is doing:
"It didn’t bother me at all. I’ve always thought of it in some ways that Tony is the antagonist to himself in his own story, so this isn’t a problem. This guy understands problems ‘cause he is a problem. And he tends to create problems. I’m not having to patter around what I think the worldview is. I wholeheartedly agree with what he does in this. Which is, by the way, more than I could say for some of the other movies."
The report then goes on to give us an interesting description of a scene from the film involving Cap, Falcon, T'Challa, Black Widow, and Tony Stark. It reads as follows:
An elevator opens in the op-center, and Steve Rogers and his friend Sam Wilson, a.k.a. Anthony Mackie’s Falcon, walk out – with a silent T’Challa (the public identity of Chadwick Boseman’s Black Panther) walking in front of them alongside the government attaché played by Martin Freeman. Scarlet Johansson’s Black Widow is with them, and she’s not saying anything either.
Something bad has gone down. Cap and Falcon were involved. It did not go well. They have handed over their vibranium shield and flying apparatus before being allowed access to this place. The pair look like they’re being sent to the principal’s office.
“You guys want to take a seat?” Widow says. “And try not to break anything while we fix this.”
Stark, who hasn’t yet had his beat-down, is on his cell phone with U.S. Secretary of State Thaddeus Ross (William Hurt) as Cap and Falcon step into the nerve center of the intelligence office. “No, Romania was not sanctioned by the accords … Col. Rhodes is supervising clean-up … Yes, there will be consequences …” Stark looks irritated, tired. “Obviously, you can quote me on that. I just said it.”
He hangs up, and beholds his Avengers. “Consequences?” Cap says.
“Secretary Ross wanted you both prosecuted,” Iron Man answers. “I had to give him something.”
“I’m not getting that shield back, am I?” Cap says.
Black Widow walks ahead, joining Stark. “Technically it belongs to the government. Wings, too,” she says.
“That’s cold,” Falcon says.
Stark spins on his heel as the two walk away with T’Challa. He flashes a tight, unpleasant smile. “Warmer than jail!” he says.
As we've seen in the trailer, we all know that Cap and Falcon get their tools of battle back, but it doesn't sound like anyone is very happy with whatever has gone down prior to this scene. I imagine it has something to do with the fight against Crossbones which you can read about here if you are OK with possible spoilers. Captain America: Civil War hits theaters on May 6th, 2016.
