The Russos Tease Filming Iconic CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR Moment

I may or may not believe them, then.

I'm calling it right now! They're gonna kill Cap in Civil War before bringing him back with the Gauntlet in Infinity War. Then they'll destroy the Gauntlet out of necessity, thus causing him to disappear for good (though not before forgiving Tony for being a dick), tears and feels ensue.

"bold claim"

/golf clap

Haha i don't think Joe would give that away so casually if it was true. To agree with some of the previous comments, if they do kill Steve in Civil War it could make for an epic comeback in Infinity War. I get seriously excited just thinking about the potential for that moment.

For me they should wipe lots of the original avengers out by the time we reach Infinity War I. They can then make their grand return in Infinity War II to save the day.

we can obviously have dead Cap, Tony on the run after his time working with the Government ends badly, Hulk in space after Ragnarok and Thor sealed away somewhere due to the same.

this would leave room for Captain Bucky, Falcon, War Machine, Antman, Cap Marvel and the gang to fail miserably against Thanos before the big four come back as the mad titan reaches Earth.

If they do pull some Infinity Gauntlet shenanigans, I hope it means we get Quicksilver back. And Steve Rogers as well. Even if it's original "skinny Steve" and he passes on the Captain America mantle to ride his motorcycle off into the sunset, I want Steve to survive.

But most of all, I just want Evans, Downey, Hemsworth, and the Phase 1 gang to stick around. They don't have to headline their own movies, or even feature heavily in the Avengers, but just to have them pop up now and again and remain a part of the universe would be fine with me. Maybe a Captain America film with Bucky and Falcon sharing the mantle while Steve is retired. A Valkyrie movie with Thor on the throne of Asgard. That sort of thing.

contracts contracts confirms so much

Look, I understand these guys wanting a break from these characters. A lot of them have been doing like 4 movies over the last 5 years. But at the same time, as an actor, you have to realize how rare a role like this is. And as a movie studio, you have to appreciate how valuable these actors are in defining their roles.

I don't think the MCU is going to recast any major character. If someone just wants out of their contract, they can move on to new characters. No character is irreplaceable, and James Bonding isn't something to be done lightly. The Bond films are almost purely episodic and there is a meta-weirdness each time a new Bond is cast that would risk undermining the whole point of double-digit movie continuity. It already has made the Incredible Hulk into a black sheep and Iron Man 2 felt the need to lampshade Rhodey's recasting. The whole point of the MCU is for people to go: "oh shit, it's that guy!". You don't want people to say: "wait... is that guy supposed to be that other guy?"

Marvel's got the money to keep these phase 1 actors happy with cameos and occasional appearances, while still giving them scheduling time to do other things. That's where we should be going. Not contract-ending deaths and/or recasts.

Cap will get arrested and will be in prison until the IW starts.

If Cap was to die, he should die by the hands of Thanos.

If they said this on stage, this is probably BS.

I stand by that they will not kill Cap in Civil War. But he might be put into a coma. And then they can make jokes about him having another long nap in Infinity War.

it's Probably the scene in Cvil War where Cap and Iron man Meet up to fight their simple best friend 1 on 1 , i'd love to see that scene , then they can hand shake and go back to beef

Even if Cap dies, how will he return for Infinity War then?

I really hope that happens! gives way more dept to the movie,

Besides, it gives Quicksilver a bigger chance to return as well!

Most of the big baddies have been "killed" by the infinity stones. That means they are able to return from the stones themselves. Do not doubt that you will see a few characters return during infinity war.

As for Cap, Evans said he is retiring from acting, but would only continue to do Marvel movies because of the love he has for the character. It's changed his life and he honestly appreciates all the good he has done being "Cap" to kids. If they kill him off, I can see him returning at another point in time.

I think it would be dumb to kill of both Thor and Cap before Infinity War. Thor should die in Ragnarok and Cap should get arrested in CW.
