Chris Evans Explains Captain America: Civil War Iron Man Feud

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:22245:]]

This coming May sees the Avengers choose sides as Captain America is set to take on Iron Man in a Marvel Civil War. Chris Evans recently attended the Salt Lake Comic-Com where he offered some insights into the movie including the differences between Cap and Iron Man (via sltrib). You can check out the full Chris Evans panel below as well.

Tony actually thinks we should be signing these accords and reporting to somebody and Cap, who’s always been a company man and has always been a soldier, actually doesn’t trust anymore. Given what happened in Cap 2, I think he kind of feels the safest hands are his own. And these are understandable concerns, but this is tough, because even reading the script, you think I think I agree with Tony in a way, and I do agree that to make this work, you do need to surrender to the group. It can’t just be one person saying this is right and this is what we’re going to do.

But Cap has his reasons, he certainly has his reasons, and he is a good man and his moral compass is probably the cleanest. This is a tough thing. This is what made it so interesting while we were filming, and it’s hopefully what will make the movie great is nobody’s right, nobody’s wrong. There’s no clear bad guy here. We both have a point of view, which is akin to most disagreements in life and politics.

“Captain America: Civil War” has  a May 6, 2016 release date directed by Anthony and Joe Russo starring Chris Evans, Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner, Elizabeth Olsen, Sebastian Stan, Anthony Mackie, Frank Grillo, Paul Bettany, Don Cheadle, Emily VanCamp, William Hurt, Martin Freeman and Chadwick Boseman as Black Panther.

Synopsis:

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.

Chris Evans Confirms Avengers 3 & 4; Wants To Extend Marvel Contract (Video)

With Ike Perlmutter out of the way, it’s possible the original cast of the Avengers could be on board with Marvel Studios for the long haul.

The Collider caught up with Chris Evans in the above video, with Evans confirming he has only two movies left on his Marvel contract, which are The Avengers Infinity Part 1 and Part 2 movies.

Evans has said at various times he might want to be done with acting and just focus on directing, but at the same time has stated he may want to stick with Marvel. Now Evans says “if Marvel wants me, they got me.”

“I’ve never had such a relationship where… I mean look at my resume. I’m used to being on set being ‘is this movie going to be terrible?’ [laughs] It’s Marvel… They can’t stop making great movies. They just do it in their sleep. It’s wonderful directors and producers, and actors and scripts, and it’s like a playground as an actor. It’s so mind boggling that I was tentative in the beginning to jump on board. What an asshole I would be if I hadn’t done this. I mean, can you imagine? I’m kicking myself. I would never forgive myself… I mean it’s just the best.”

Details Behind Tom Holland’s Spider-Man Casting

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:21144:]]

Earlier today saw Marvel and Sony announce 19-year-old English actor Tom Holland as the new Spider-Man with Jon Watts set to direct the film.

Now Variety reports on the inside decision as to how both Watts and Holland were chosen.

TOM HOLLAND

According to the report, following “underwhelming” meetings with unknown actors, the search for a new Spider-Man was widened to include actors with a “somewhat” proven track record, with Asa Butterfield, Charlie Rowe, Matthew Lintz and Tom Holland becoming the frontrunners. The list was eventually narrowed to two favorites with Lowe and Holland.

Tom Holland became the choice by Marvel and Sony as it’s said Holland was an already established name who proved he could hold his own alongside bigger-named stars such as when Holland starred in The Impossible with Ewan McGreggor and Naomi Watts.

It’s further said Tom Holland is at an age in which he is still young enough that he will be able to play a teenage Spider-Man for years to come (Marvel’s Kevin Feige stated the new Peter Parker is in high school), and that the decision for an adult teenage actor was made in part due to the studios not wanting to deal with child labor laws that restrict the lengths of film shoots.

JON WATTS

Regarding Jon Watts, the report mentions Ted Melfi (St. Vincent), Jonathan Levine (Warm Bodies), John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein (Vacation) were also potential contenders to direct Spider-Man as their experience on the comedic side as well as use of younger actors made them stand out choices.

It’s said, apparently Levine and Melfi became frustrated with the process, and Marvel/Sony was worried it would carry over to the Spider-Man movie production, which ended up opening the job up for Watts. In addition, Watts’ work on Cop Car is said to have earned him bonus points as the film received rave reviews at Sundance.

CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR

While the Marvel and Sony official announcement made no mention of Tom Holland appearing as Spider-Man in Captain America: Civil War, the report states Holland is expected to make an appearance “in order to properly introduce him into the Marvel film universe.”

Holland’s appearance in Captain America: Civil War is said to only be a small cameo as it’s mentioned Holland will only be needed for a week of filming.

Update: THR is reporting that Tom Holland had a screen test with Robert Downey Jr. and Chris Evans, and that Tony Stark/Iron Man will share scenes with Peter Parker/Spider-Man. It’s said Marvel was looking for chemistry between the actors and Holland.

Tom Holland recently finished filming “In The Heart Of The Sea” (out December 11th), which stars The Avengers’ Thor actor Chris Hemsworth (pictured above via USA Today).

“Captain America: Civil War” has a May 6, 2016 release; the new “Spider-Man” movie is due out July 28, 2017.

Chris Pratt Talks Star-Lord Vs. Captain America

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:20949:]]

Chris Pratt plays Star-Lord, a member of Marvel’s cosmic team of the Guardians of the Galaxy.

Chris Evans plays Captain America, the goody two-shoes of Earth’s Mightiest Avengers.

Earlier this year saw the two duke it out on Twitter over the Super Bowl, where Captain America’s Patriots were victorious.

Now while promoting Jurassic World, Chris Pratt is asked by CBR who would win between Star-Lord and Captain America.

Oh, man. Hopefully, you’ll find out one day. Steve Rogers would kick the shit out of Peter Quill in a fair fight, but I don’t think Quill and the Guardians fight fair. I would put my money on Quill. If it was a straight UFC match, Captain America wins 100 out of 100 times. But, when you have Rocket Raccoon, who has your back, and he can take apart an air conditioner and turn it into a nuclear weapon, you have an ace in the hole.

It’s possible we actually may one day get to see that fight between Star-Lord and Captain America on the big screen as Thanos comes into play in the two part The Avengers: Infinity War movies, which may feature the Guardians of the Galaxy. Perhaps Marvel Cosmic and Marvel street-level won’t get along right away before they combine forces to take on the Mad Titan.

Dave Bautista, who plays Drax, also previously stated that Drax could beat up the Hulk and Thor, and Zoe Saldana, who plays Gamora, said the Guardians could kick the Avengers ass as well.

So, fanboys, who wins? Guardians? Or The Avengers?

Avengers: Infinity War Starts Filming In 2016 For 9 Months

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:20251:]]

While promoting The Avengers 2, Chris Evans mentions filming for the upcoming Avengers: Infinity War movies, which will be filmed back-to-back.

Evans first tells Esquire that filming on Captain America: Civil War will go to August or September, and Evans also says he expects filming on the two Avenger: Infinity War movies to start either in the fall or winter of 2016:

“You know, you plan around the Marvel responsibilities. You have to. We start [Captain America: Civil War] in a couple weeks, and then that shoots until August or something like that. August or September. Then I’ve got some downtime and I can do with it as I please. I don’t know if I want to take time off or go pursue another directing job or find a movie to act in or, you know, do whatever I’m creatively inclined to pursue or wait, relax, enjoy my life. And then we start the Infinity War, I think, some time in the third quarter. Fall or winter of 2016. That’s going to be like nine months to shoot both movies back to back.” 

Regarding Captain America 3, Evans just tweeted he had to shave his beard for the movie as filming looks to begin any day now.

Evans & Renner In The Hot Seat Following Black Widow “Slut” & “Whore” Jokes

Perhaps the press tour for The Avengers 2 has gone on just a little too long (for both the actors and the fans).

Just the other day saw Robert Downey Jr. walk out an interview, and now both Chris Evans and Jeremy Renner are in the hot seat.

Evans, who plays Captain America, and Renner, who plays Hawkeye, both participated in an interview with the Digital Spy (watch above).

When it was brought up that fans’ had hoped Black Widow would have been linked romantically to either one of their characters, Renner responded with a straight face, “She’s a slut.”

Evans laughed and agreed with him saying, “I was going to say something along that line… a complete whore.”

Renner then added, “Trick, man.” With Evans laughing about “she’s a slut.”

The interviewer – who is female – then went with it and and added, “Whatever movie it is, she’ll be just the sidekick. She’ll be flirting away…”  

“That’s right,” Renner agreed.

“Just flirting with everybody,” Evans said.

“She has a prosthetic leg anyway,” Renner said.

“Leading everybody on,” joked Evans, with the interviewer laughing along with them.

Note: The remarks were not made about Scarlett Johansson, but about the fictional Marvel character Black Widow. However, that didn’t deter fans as many took to social networks to voice their dissatisfaction for the Avengers actors’ behavior.

Evans has since apologized as his rep sent USA Today the following:

“Yesterday we were asked about the rumors Black Widow wanted to be in a relationship with both Hawkeye and Captain America. We answered in a juvenile and offensive way that rightfully angered some fans. I regret it and sincerely apologize.”

Update: Renner also released the following:

“I am sorry that this tasteless joke about a fictional character offended anyone. It was not meant to be serious in any way. Just poking fun during an exhausting and tedious press tour.”

Evans and Renner haven’t seen the trailer,, but the two went on to make fun of Superman as being too powerful of a character.

“How does anyone fight Superman?” asked Evans. 

With Renner adding, “I know, that’s what I don’t get. What are you going to do with a Bat-belt?”

“I feel like [Superman] would bulldoze our whole squad, they really wrote him unfairly. It’s not fair, he’s got too much,” Evans said.

Whedon did see the Batman Vs. Superman trailer and offered he can understand why hero would fight against hero and says he is really excited for the movie.

“I found [the trailer for ‘Batman v Superman’] interesting,” Whedon offered. “Because they’re bringing up a lot of issues that we bring up in Age of Ultron and I think it’s inevitable. People with power, who are good, do not always agree and it makes perfect sense for me that [Batman and Superman] would fight. And besides… Batman and Superman are gonna fight! I’m so excited! I’m so excited!”

Pratt made good on the bet earlier last month in Boston, and though Evans came out on top, Captain America went to visit kids at Seattle’s Children’s Hospital as well.

The Seattle Children’s Hospital Facebook released the following photos.

A superhero size THANK YOU to Chris Pratt and Chris Evans for spending time with our patients today. The kids were beyond excited to meet Captain America and Star-Lord. And thanks to Marvel and Disney for helping make this day extra special!

Captain America 3 Is Not Iron Man 4 Says Robert Downey Jr.

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:19242:]]

Captain America: Civil War is set for May 2016 which will pit Captain America vs Iron Man and will introduce Black Panther and Spider-Man officially into the Marvel cinematic universe.

While speaking with Empire Online, Robert Downey Jr. offers details why he decided to be featured in the movie and also says it’s not Iron Man 4.

Ultimately it’s Steve’s story; it doesn’t say ‘Iron Man 4: Civil War’. I think that’s great too. I think Chris [Evans] has been hungry to bring even more of an underside and some shadow to that. I remember the comics – on the surface you got the sense that Cap was baseball and apple pie, but underneath there was all this churning stuff of being a man out of time. Now we know he’s made his peace with that. What’s the bigger issue? It can have a little something to do with the past, but it can be about someone becoming more modernized in their own conflict. 

I’m crazy about Evans. I really am. I don’t know why or how to explain this particular kinship we have. By the way, he hasn’t called me in six months. Honestly, in order for this whole thing to have worked, I did my part, Hemsworth knocked it out of the stadium and then it fell on Cap. That was the riskiest. It was the one that had the highest degree of difficulty in making it translate to a modern audience. It was the Russos and Chris who, I think, really hit the line drive and won the series. I remember glancing through it going, “Wow, that’s a different way to go”. They said, “If we have you, we can do this or Cap 3 has to be something else”. It’s nice to feel needed.

And when they pitched it to me and when I had a couple of ideas and when they said we like those ideas, let’s do those. Then there’s all this competition too. I don’t do this because I look at it as a competition, but I look at the marketplace and go, ‘Maybe if these two franchises teamed up and I can take even a lesser position in support, with people I like and directors I respect, maybe we can keep things bumping along here a little longer than they might have’. 

“Captain America: Civil War” has a May 6, 2016 release date directed by Anthony and Joe Russo starring Chris Evans, Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson, Sebastian Stan, Anthony Mackie, Frank Grillo and Chadwick Boseman.

Robert Downey Jr. and Chris Evans can next be seen in The Avengers: Age Of Ultron out May 1, 2015.

Watch: Ben Affleck, Matt Damon & Chris Evans On Deflategate

The Super Bowl happens to be this Sunday, but hasn’t come without controversy as the AFC Championship game between the Colts and Patriots saw almost a dozen footballs discovered with less air than what’s mandated.

In what has become known as “Deflategate,” the accusation is that the Patriots used deflated balls to give themselves an advantage as a softer ball in colder weather makes it easier to throw, catch and hold.

The Patriots, Coach Belichick and quarterback Tom Brady have denied the allegations, and the NFL is still looking into the matter.

While we still don’t know what the cause of “Deflategate” is, Jimmy Kimmel is on top of things.

Various Hollywood stars take credit for “Deflategate” above including Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, John Krasinski, Chris Evans, Steven Tyler, Eli Roth, Dicky Barrett and Bill Simmons. 

Personally, I think “Deflategate” is the reason the Patriots have continued to win the AFC East and beat the Bills.

Chris Evans also has a Super Bowl bet going with Chris Pratt.
