Production continues on Captain America: Civil War in Berlin, Germany. In the gallery below, you’ll find not only Captain America (not Chris Evans, but a stuntman) in action, but also your first look at the Black Panther costume on the set of the film. The stuntmen for both Chadwick Boseman’s T’Challa and Sebastian Stan’s Winter Soldier can also be seen on the edge of a building. Check them all out below.
The goddamn Black Panther cares not for your concept of climbing buildings like a normal person!
Although it’s not really the best environment to get our first look at the costume in, it’s looking pretty much like the concept image, but with whiter claw pieces on Black Panther’s gauntlets and around his collar. There even appears to be some more noticeable detailing on his mask to boot—but yup, that sure as hell is Black Panther.
Given the nature of the reveal—and considering how Marvel has reacted to things getting into the public hands ahead of time in the past—we just might end up seeing a more official suit reveal from Marvel sooner rather than later. After all, they’ll be attending the D23 expo this weekend: seems like an ideal place to deliver some Civil War news.
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.
Set for release in the United States on May 6, 2016, Captain America: Civil War is directed by Anthony and Joe Russo from a screenplay by Christopher Markus & Stephen McFeely. It is set to feature the return of Chris Evans as Steve Rogers/Captain America, this time joined in his “solo” film by fellow Avengers Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark/Iron Man, Scarlett Johansson as Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow, Anthony Mackie as Sam Wilson/Falcon, Paul Bettany as The Vision, Jeremy Renner as Clint Barton/Hawkeye, Don Cheadle as Jim Rhodes/War Machine and Elizabeth Olsen as Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch.
The film also stars Emily VanCamp as Sharon Carter/Agent 13, Daniel Brühl as Baron Helmut Zemo, Frank Grillo as Brock Rumlow/Crossbones, William Hurt as General Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross, and Paul Rudd as Scott Lang/Ant-Man. The film is also supposed to debut Marvel’s new Spider-Man, played by Tom Holland.
