See how They Made Black Panther’s Suit
Last week we shared the news with you that Chadwick Boseman's Black Panther in Captain America: Civil War was created entirely in post-production. The suit was the product of state-of-the-art visual effects, necessary beacuse the look directors Anthony and Joe Russo wanted would have been impossible to achieve practically.
Luckily, the VFX studio Cinesite was there to help. Civil War was their third Marvel collaboration, and they were prepared to help make Black Panther's suit by far the coolest superhero duds around.
The Russo Brothers Explain why no Avengers Died in Captain America: Civil War
Directors Joe and Anthony Russo and Marvel president Kevin Feige have been making the rounds lately as they gear up for awards season (Captain America: Civil War will likely be up in a few categories, no doubt for special effects and possibly a bunch more), which means they've also been discussing the film itself. As you know by now, although there were some pretty brutal injuries in the film (with Don Cheadle's War Machine suffering the worst of all),
Black Panther’s all CGI Suit a True Marvel
The inclusion of the new Spider-Man in Captain America: Civil War was a big deal for Marvel-heads. What was especially interesting was his new look—specifically his clearly CGI-assisted changing eye sizes (which the internet has speculated are actually camera-assisted eyes, thanks to Tony Stark). The look was a hit, and fans went away very excited for the Tom Holland-led version of Spidey going forward. Then there was Giant-Man, which we touched upon yesterday.
Turning Ant-Man Into Giant-Man in Captain America: Civil War
“In a scene where there’s so much going on you need something new, something bigger and crazier. It kind of put the final stamp on it and go into the rest of the movie and that seemed like a good way to go.” So says Paul Rudd in this behind-the-scenes glimpse at arguably the most delightful part of Captain America: Civil War; the shocking reveal of Giant-Man. That's the moment when Scott Lang (Rudd) goes from being the diminutive Ant-Man in the big battle between Team Iron Man and Team Cap into Giant-Man,
It’s all Giggles & Curse Words in Captain America: Civil War‘s Gag Reel
Captain America: Civil War might be one of the more somber Marvel films to date, but that doesn't mean the large cast of mostly old friends didn't have a hoot filming it. Considering most of the principals have been together for a long time, it's not surprising to see them falling to pieces over flubbed lines, stunt mishaps and more. Scarlett Johansson's Black Widow has some trouble with her trusty batons and starts giggling.
See how they Filmed the Fight Scene Between Captain America and the Winter Soldier
There were a lot of big, bruising brawls in Captain America: Civil War, but none are more personal than when Cap fights his best friend (of 80 years!) the Winter Soldier, aka Bucky Barnes. In this behind-the-scenes clip unveiled by Marvel, directors Joe and Anthony Russo show us how they built this fight early in the film.
Fight coordinator James Young explains that the key to crafting a believable, emotional fight is to remember that these brawls need to be "character moments."
Here’s What Thor & The Hulk Were Doing During Captain America: Civil War
One question that always nagged at us while we watched Captain America: Civil War was where in the heck Thor and the Hulk were during all of this? They would have made a huge impact on the film’s titular battle, right? And while there were plenty of good reasons that it wouldn't have made sense to include the Hulk (screenwriters Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely told Entertainment Weekly
Watch a Telling Deleted Scene From Captain America: Civil War
What it would be like if The Winter Soldier had to take Captain America's shield and, perhaps, take on his identity as our most moral superhero? That's the sly joke (one of the jokes, anyway) in a deleted scene from Captain America: Civil War. The Winter Soldier gets to experience what it's like to wield the vibranium shield when Cap's momentarily taken out of the action.
This deleted scene takes place during the clash in the film's title;
Every Captain America Ever Part IV: 2000 to 2009
It's that time, folks. We've given you parts I, II, and III of Marvel's "Every Captain America Ever" series, detailing the surprisingly wild life of everyone's favorite patriot, from his creation in 1941 to 1999. In part IV, we see the origins of what created the conflict in Captain America: Civil War, which in the comics ended with the astonishing assassination of Steve Rogers.
Every Captain America Ever Part III: 1990 to 1999
Today we look at part III of Marvel's "Every Captain America Ever" series. In part I, we began with Cap's creation in 1941, when the puny but patriotic Steve Rogers failed his military physical examination and was looking at having to sit out World War II. Rogers fatefully took part in a secret operation that resulted in his becoming a super soldier, forever known as Captain America, and a superhero legend was born. In part II,
Every Captain America Part II: 1970 to 1980
Yesterday we shared part I of Marvel's "Ever Captain America ever" video series, which showed Cap's changing looks and politics from his creation in 1941 during World War II to 1964. The series shows all the iterations our most patriotic Avenger has undergone, including snippets about his adventures, misadventures and his changing views on politics and the world at large. Cap has always been more complex than many readers remember.
Every Captain America Ever From 1941 to 1964—Part I
Marvel got into the holiday spirit over the 4th of the July by honoring the most patriotic of all superheroes—Captain America. Beginning with Steve Rogers first appearance in "Captain America, Comics #1" in March 1941 when the young Rogers tried to join the American effort against the Axis powers in World War II (as you probably know, Rogers failed to pass the physical requirements, but once he joined Operation: Rebirth, he'd never fail a physical test again) and taking us all the way to 1964,
Captain America: Civil War Directors Joe & Anthony Russo
As the much-anticipated third installment of Marvel’s Captain America franchise hits theaters today, we catch up with directors Anthony and Joe Russo. The brothers discuss how they addressed the challenge of cramming so many of Marvel’s superheroes into Captain America: Civil War, how they subverted the genre by creating a film with no clear villain and playing good cop bad cop on set.
Captain America: Civil War is getting great reviews.
Watch Ta-Nehisi Coates Discuss the new Black Panther
When you see the new Captain America: Civil War, you'll be treated to one of the coolest superheroes of them all's first big-screen appearance. Chadwick Boseman's T'Challa (Black Panther) is a noble prince from the African nation of Wakanda with a seriously ferocious alter-ego. His fighting style in the film is so impressive that even the Winter Soldier (Sebastian Stan) is taken aback. Black Panther all but steals the film in his brief but potent scenes.
Marvel Announces Ultimate Captain America Marathon
Have you met anyone who attended last year's "The Ultimate Marvel Marathon," the 28-hour, 11 movie marathon that ended with the brand new Avengers: Age of Ultron? If so, let us know how they fared. Now, Marvel's announced a slightly more sane marathon—the “Ultimate Captain America Marathon,” which will screen in select theaters this Thursday, May 5, and will conclude with a screening of Captain America: Civil War.
It’s National Superhero Day, so Maybe That Means There’s an Iron Man 4 Announcement?
Folks, it's National Superhero Day (we know what you're thinking—isn't every day National Superhero Day at this point?), and on April 28, we honor the men and women who use their extraordinary abilities for good rather than evil. Or, in the case of Deadpool, for good and for being a wise-ass.
With that in mind, it's the perfect day to share with you this clip from ABC News in which Robert Downey Jr.
A Spoiler Free Captain America: Civil War Review
Captain America: Civil War is the most satisfying Marvel film to date. Directors Anthony and Joe Russo and screenwriters Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely have essentially crafted the third Avengers film in everything but the title (including the omission of two major characters), and while they've scaled down the stakes (for a Marvel film), leaving the global population relatively safe no matter the outcome, they've managed to intensify the emotional investment.
Here’s new Spider-Man Footage From Captain America: Civil War
With Captain America: Civil War currently sitting at a whopping 97% fresh rating on RottenTomatoes, it's safe to say that Marvel's latest, already all but guaranteed to be a commercial smash, is a critical darling to boot. One of the things critics have been raving about is Spider-Man's inclusion into the already packed ensemble cast. As we head to the press screening in just a few minutes,
New Captain America: Civil War International Spots Include New Footage
You can thank Marvel Germany for providing us with brand new footage of Ant-Man and Daniel Brühl's Baron Zemo in these three international TV spots for Captain America: Civil War. We're only sharing two, however, as one of them offers no new footage, although it is fun to listen to the German dubbed version of these trailers and imagine how different it would be if it was Captain Deutschland: Bürgerkrieg. (Why would the 'Captain'
Which Side has the Advantage in Captain America: Civil War?
At this point you've seen enough teasers, and trailers clips from Captain America: Civil War and you're ready for the rumble. Yet as Marvel keeps releasing little bits here and there, we feel duty-bound to share them. What these new Team Cap and Team Iron Man teasers allow you to do is assess how evenly matched you think the two sides actually are. Fighting for Team Cap are Hawkeye, the Scarlet Witch, the Winter Soldier,
