CIVIL WAR Will Close Out The CAPTAIN AMERICA Trilogy
We've known that some big things will be happening in Captain America: Civil War, but I never really thought of the movie closing out a trilogy of films. But that's exactly what Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige has confirmed in an interview with MTV. This upcoming Captain America film will close out a story arc that began with Captain America: The First Avenger. When asked about the film, he said:
“It’s very much, in a certain way, the completion of a Captain America trilogy. I think one day you’ll look back and watch — ’Captain America: The First Avenger,’ ’Captain America: The Winter Soldier,’ and ’Captain America: Civil War’ — and it’ll be one of the most unique and different trilogies ever around a single character.”
Feige went on to say that the non-Captain America characters being brought into Civil War also played an important part in the story:
“[We’re] bringing in some of the other players, most importantly Tony Stark, to tell that ’Civil War’ story. But it is very much a sequel to ’Winter Soldier.'”
Now just because this is the end of a trilogy of films, it doesn't mean we won't ever seen another Captain America movie again. They could always start a new story arc for a new trilogy! Chris Evans has been very vocal about reprising his role of Steve Rogers as long as long as Marvel will want him back. There were rumors that they might kill off the character in Civil War, but Evans has already confirmed that he will be in Avengers: Infinity War.
If Marvel does move forward with another solo Captain America film, it won't happen until sometime after 2019 after the second part of Infinity War is released. We'll just have to be patient and see what Marvel decides to do.
