Marvel are continuing to ride the wave of success that began after 2012’s THE AVENGERS made $1.5 Billion at the worldwide box office and shattered the impossibly high expectations it had already set. Last years IRON MAN 3 and THOR: THE DARK WORLD both performed extremely well at the box office after an increased interest following Joss Whedon’s mega superhero mash up. The increased interest in each characters solo adventure’s after THE AVENGERS certainly helped Iron Man and Thor after they both out-grossed their individual preceding films, and Marvel are no doubt hoping the same will happen when Captain America returns in four months time.
CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE WINTER SOLDIER will see the man out of time return to once again save a modern 21st Century united States by working for the shady organisation known as S.H.I.E.L.D. This entry in Marvel Studios’ ‘phase 2’ line of films is the one that I have personally been most looking forward to since its announcement and from the first trailer and poster it looks stunning. It will be interesting to see how Steve Rogers has been coping in the modern world since the battle of New York in THE AVENGERS and how the film connects overall to THE AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON. You can see nine awesome brand new photos from the film below:
CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE WINTER SOLDIER stars Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Sebastian Stan, Anthony Mackie, Robert Redford, Samuel L. Jackson and Cobie Smulders.
