Martin Freeman’s Captain America: Civil War role stands revealed as Empire Magazine has debuted a new image.

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.

Watch: Whiskey Tango Foxtrot Trailer; Stars Margot Robbie

Check out the trailer above for Margot Robbie’s latest movie, Whiskey Tango Foxtrot.

The film has a March 4, 2016 release directed by Glenn Ficarra and John Requa also starring Tina Fey, Martin Freeman, Alfred Molina and Billy Bob Thornton.

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot is based on the book “The Taliban Shuffle: Strange Days In Afghanistan And Pakistan” by Kim Barker, with the book described as:

When Kim Barker first arrived in Kabul as a journalist in 2002, she barely owned a passport, spoke only English and had little idea how to do the “Taliban Shuffle” between Afghanistan and Pakistan. No matter—her stories about Islamic militants and shaky reconstruction were soon overshadowed by the bigger news in Iraq. But as she delved deeper into Pakistan and Afghanistan, her love for the hapless countries grew, along with her fear for their future stability. In this darkly comic and unsparing memoir, Barker uses her wry, incisive voice to expose the absurdities and tragedies of the “forgotten war,” finding humor and humanity amid the rubble and heartbreak.

Watch: Martin Freeman Talks Captain America: Civil War

Check out Martin Freeman talking about his secret character in Captain America: Civil War.

Freeman offers:

“He works for the American government. He works in conjunction with the superheroes, and certain agencies that help to tame the superheroes’ power, I suppose. So you’re not quite sure which side he’s on. It looks a little bit like he’s playing one game when actually he’s playing another. It’s the kind of character I like because it’s ambiguous and because you don’t know whether he’s good or bad. I like that area that isn’t black or white, I like the grays, because there’s just more fun to be had in not playing one obvious line. I like that.” 

“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.

Martin Freeman’s Role Rumored For Captain America: Civil War

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:20850:]]

The Hobbit star Martin Freeman has been named to be a part of Captain America: Civil War in an unknown role.

Now the mystery role may be revealed.

Possible spoilers follow.

Latino Review is stating Martin Freeman is playing Edward Chase, the Prime Minister of England who is in favor of super human registration.

It’s suggested that Andy Serkis was on the phone with Chase during The Avengers 2 when Klaw mentioned: “Now, Minister, where were we?”

According to the rumor, a joint international mission goes south at the start of Captain America: Civil War that involves British soldiers, with Chase arguing for a better worldwide plan to keep the Avengers in check.

It’s also said Chase may be attempting to collect Vibranium (what the phone call was about) to use against super humans.

It’s further suggested that Chase’s motives make it appear as if the character is a villain in the movie as he is set against the Avengers (or at least Cap’s side).

“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.

Mark Millar Hints At Martin Freeman’s Role In Captain America: Civil War

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:20486:]]

Martin Freeman is the latest addition to the ever-growing list of actors in Captain America: Civil War.

There are many fan theories who Freeman might be playing, but writer of the comic, Mark Millar, does know specifics.

Millar teases (via Radio Times) that it’s not a superhero, and to somebody familiar with Marvel, that it’s obvious.

I know who he’s playing in the film, but I guess it’s still a secret. The character is not a super-person, it’s somebody who’s… well, I don’t want to spoil it for anybody but he’s not going to be in costume. He’s a great actor he could play anyone – he could play Hit-Girl! Once you get to see it, it’s so obvious. All I’ll say is, he’s not [Captain America villain] the Red Skull.

The current speculation is that Martin Freeman may be playing Everett Ross, a government liason to Wakanda (home of the Black Panther); another guess it that Freeman could be playing Henry Gyrich, a U.S. govt. liason to the Avengers; a third guess is that Freeman may be playing Norman Osborn, and a fourth guess is J. Jonah Jameson.

“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.

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.
