Collider have an interview with Evans in which he discusses various aspects of Captain America: TFA. But of course some Avengers questions sneak in there too. Evans doesn't go into any plot details but once again praises the movie's director Joss Whedon, revealing that he was very impressed by the footage he has seen. He also compliments a couple of his co-stars..
Could you talk a little bit about how The Avengers is going? Can you tell fans what they should be excited about?
Evans: It’s going great. It’s going really well. I mean, Joss (Whedon), I really tip my hat to Joss. He has such a difficult job and every day we come to set and you read how the film is going to be shot or a scene is going to be shot but you don’t know what he’s going to do with the camera and then he’ll open up. Usually when you’re filming, the first shot is some sort of a master shot where before you punch into the coverage of the scene, you start with some wide shot to just get the whole layout of the scene. Typically, those shots are a little bland. It’s just kind of let’s map out the scene with a wide shot and then we’ll come in with some interesting coverage to spoon feed the story along to the audience. Even his masters have energy and action and you watch playback and you’re like man, this is going to have some life and it’s going to have a really good feel to it. Even a simple scene, Joss manages to give the camera some interesting action. And again, I can’t say enough about the actors involved – Downey and Ruffalo. Each day you watch these guys do things and you’re like man, I hope I’m not the weak link in this movie. I gotta work harder. I gotta go home and study my lines ‘cause these guys are great. I have really high hopes for it.
And on that title change..
What do you think about how some countries like South Korea and Russia have changed the name of the movie and eliminated Captain America?
Evans: That’s right. They did. I’ve been rehearsing my political response to that very question, and the truth is, that’s not my department. It’s such a tricky question. Again, I don’t know why we chose those markets to change our name. I’m sure there are people around the world who question America’s current political position in the world, but I’m an actor. I make movies. In no way do I know how to navigate those obstacles. They changed them and I couldn’t tell you why.
