Someone Leaked a Pic of Bucky From The ‘Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier’ Set

Even though that one guy in the stylish cutoff jean shorts is clearly holding a sign saying ‘No Pictures Please!’ Not cool guys, not cool. That keygrip clearly spent at least 3 minutes making that sign.

While filming continues on Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier in Cleveland, a pack of ne’er-do-wells were hovering around the set trying to snap photos, according to the rumors, causing filming to halt and the shoot moved in doors free from the camera wielding rapscallions. Just not before one managed to get a rather clear shot of  Sebastian Stan in costume as the Cap’s former sidekick turned masked Winter Soldier.

To protect the spoiler sensitive, the photo is up after the jump.  (more…)

Daddy Stark Back for ‘Winter Soldier’

howard stark

Well, folks, it looks like the new installment of Captain America will be taking a little trip into the past to tell its story.  As it turns out, actor Dominic Cooper is all set to reprise his role as Iron Man Senior, Howard Stark in Captain America: The Winter Soldier.  But what will he be doing there, you ask?

Cooper apparently has no idea (or just won’t say).  It’s pretty obvious that they’ll be using some flashbacks to explain the story of the Winter Soldier, but no word on how much time that will take.  It’s already been rumored that Bucky, Peggy Carter and Arnim Zola will be making their own appearances, so we could get a nice chunk of story there.  Until then, just expect to see Cooper’s smiling face staring back at you from the screen.

Check out Captain America: The Winter Soldier when it hits screens next year on April 4th.

Cap and Black Widow Get New Looks for ‘Captain America: The Winter Soldier’

captain-america-2-winter-soldier-chris-evans-600x399

With Iron Man 3 only weeks away Phase 2 of Marvel‘s Cinematic Universe is so close we can taste it! Not that I’d recommend tasting it, probably tastes like some strange mixture of Tony Stark’s leftover whiskey and Hulk’s sweaty shorts. Nah, who am I kidding? Tony wouldn’t have leftover whiskey. That’s crazy talk.

Anyway, Captain America: The Winter Soldier is currently filming, with its release date set for April 4th, 2014. On Monday night they were filming in Los Angeles and JFX Online was there to snap a few pictures of a scene between Cap (Chris Evans) and Black Widow (Scarlet Johansson). Browse through the gallery below, and take note of the new costume Cap’s wearing,

All right, if you did what you were told you would have noticed that new costume of Cap’s looks an awful like what he’s wearing in the Secret Avengers series, as pointed out by Screen Rant. The new costume also officially marks him as an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., a role we’ll seen Cap take on in this sequel. There’s a change to Black Widow’s look, too. Johansson is rocking straight, red locks as opposed to the curlier look she’s had in both Iron Man 2 and The Avengers. Again, it’s a change that aligns her more with the comic book interpretation to her character.

What do you think is going on in this scene? It’s an action scene for sure, just look at those harnesses and wires.

Are you excited for The Winter Soldier? How do you think Cap’s official involvement with S.H.I.E.L.D. will pan out? Maybe we’ll see some crossover with Joss Whedon’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. I wouldn’t hold your breath, but maybe.

‘Captain America: The Winter Soldier’ Screenwriters Talk ‘Avengers’ Connections and Overall Movie

With the whole Marvel Phase 2 thing dominating the way that upcoming movies in that circle are being put together, people are naturally wondering how each story is going to tie into the rest of them.  With Captain America: The Winter Soldier on the way, one major question is how the Cap. is going to run solo after being put in charge of the Avengers.  After all, he’s got a whole team to work with, right?  Why try to take on the bad guys alone when you have a Hulk to throw at them?  Well, the writers of the new flick, Christopher Markus and the unfortunately named Stephen McFeely had a few words to share about just that subject.  Check out what they had to say after the jump.

First ‘Captain America: The Winter Soldier’ Production Still Hits Internet – Now With More Scarlett Johansson Black Widow, Because Everything is Better With More Johansson

 Captain-America-The-Winter-Soldier-Logo-001

Principal photography began today for directors Anthony & Joe Russo’s Captain America: The Winter Soldier, and Disney has already released the first image along with a press release announcing the production’s under way. The entire release is below the still and confirms the return of Chris Evans, Hayley Atwell, Sebastian Stan and new comers Robert Redford, Anthony Mackie, Frank Grillo, Georges St. Pierre as well as a few others.

There’s not much to see in the still, but just seeing Cap with his shield on his back is a treat for this long time Captain America fan. The hidden gem in the press release is the increased size of the role that Scarlett Johansson‘s Black Widow will play:

“Captain America: The Winter Soldier” will pick-up where “Marvel’s The Avengers” left off, as Steve Rogers struggles to embrace his role in the modern world and teams up with Natasha Romanoff, aka Black Widow, to battle a powerful yet shadowy enemy in present-day Washington, D.C.”

The Shadowy enemy is the Winter Soldier of course. I’m looking forward to the fight scenes between Winter Soldier, Black Widow, and Cap. Those should be a hell of a lot of fun.

Captain America: The Winter Soldier opens April 4, 2014.

Following in the footsteps of the record-breaking Marvel Studios’ release, “Marvel’s The Avengers,” production on the highly anticipated release, Marvel’s “Captain America: The Winter Soldier” has commenced in Los Angeles, Calif., with production also including locations in Cleveland, Ohio, and Washington D.C. Directing the film is the team of Anthony and Joe Russo (“Welcome to Collinwood”) from a screenplay written by Christopher Markus (“Captain America: The First Avenger”) & Stephen McFeely (“Captain America: The First Avenger”). Marvel’s “Captain America: The Winter Soldier” returns Chris Evans (“Captain America: The First Avenger,” “Marvel’s The Avengers”) as the iconic Super Hero character Steve Rogers/Captain America, along with Scarlett Johansson (“Marvel’s The Avengers,” “Iron Man 2”) as Black Widow and Samuel L. Jackson (“Marvel’s The Avengers,” “Iron Man 2”) as Nick Fury. In addition, film icon Robert Redford has joined the all-star cast as Agent Alexander Pierce, a senior leader within the S.H.I.E.L.D. organization. “Captain America: The Winter Soldier” is set for release in the U.S. on April 4, 2014.

“Captain America: The Winter Soldier” will pick-up where “Marvel’s The Avengers” left off, as Steve Rogers struggles to embrace his role in the modern world and teams up with Natasha Romanoff, aka Black Widow, to battle a powerful yet shadowy enemy in present-day Washington, D.C.

Based on the ever-popular Marvel comic book series, first published in 1941, Marvel’s “Captain America: The Winter Soldier” features an outstanding supporting cast that includes Sebastian Stan (“Captain America: The First Avenger,” “Black Swan”) as Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier, Anthony Mackie (“The Hurt Locker,” “Million Dollar Baby”) as Sam Wilson/Falcon, Cobie Smulders (“Marvel’s The Avengers,” “How I Met Your Mother”) as Agent Maria Hill, Frank Grillo (“Zero Dark Thirty”) as Brock Rumlow and Georges St-Pierre (“Death Warrior”) as Georges Batroc.

Marvel Studios’ President Kevin Feige is producing the film. Executive producers on the project include Alan Fine, Louis D’Esposito, Victoria Alonso, Michael Grillo and Stan Lee. The creative production team on the film includes director of photography Trent Opaloch (“Elysium,” “District 9”), production designer Peter Wenham (“21 Jump Street,” “Fast Five”), editors Jeffrey Ford, A.C.E. and Mary Jo Markey, A.C.E.

Marvel Studios’ upcoming release schedule includes “Iron Man 3” on May 3, 2013, and “Thor: The Dark World” on November 8, 2013. The studio most recently produced the critically acclaimed “Marvel’s The Avengers,” which set the all-time, domestic 3-day weekend box office record at $207.4 million. The film, which shattered both domestic and international box office records, is Disney’s highest-grossing global and domestic release of all time and marks the studio’s fifth film to gross more than $1 billion worldwide.

In the summer of 2011, Marvel successfully launched two new franchises with “Thor,” starring Chris Hemsworth, and “Captain America: The First Avenger,” starring Chris Evans. Both films opened #1 at the box office and have grossed over $800 million worldwide combined. In 2010 “Iron Man 2,” starring Robert Downey Jr., Gwyneth Paltrow, Don Cheadle, Scarlett Johansson, Sam Rockwell, Mickey Rourke and Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury took the #1 spot in its first weekend with a domestic box office gross of $128.1 million.

In the summer of 2008, Marvel produced the summer blockbuster movies “Iron Man” and “The Incredible Hulk.”  “Iron Man,” in which Robert Downey Jr. originally dons the Super Hero’s powerful armor and stars alongside co-stars Terrence Howard, Jeff Bridges, Shaun Toub and Gwyneth Paltrow, was released May 2, 2008, and was an immediate box office success. Garnering the number one position for two weeks in a row, the film brought in over $100 million in its opening weekend.  On June 13, 2008, Marvel released “The Incredible Hulk,” marking its second number one opener of that summer.
