New CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR Details On 'Black Panther', 'Falcon', 'Giant-Man' & More
Here were have a round-up of very interesting new details from Marvel's third Captain America movie. Get the low-down on which characters will face-off, whether a certain avian sidekick will appear, all of the costume upgrades we can expect to see, and more. Possible SPOILERS ahead...
JoBlo has posted another crop of details about Captain America: Civil War. This time it's less about the plot and more about the characters - or more specifically, what new costumes and gadgets they'll be utilizing in the movie. That said there is also some new story info, so if you don't want to be SPOILED on that front, best read no further.
We'll start with Black Panther. According to the site, T'Challa will actually side with Tony Stark initially, though his loyalties may shift as the story progresses. This obviously places him in direct conflict with Captain America, and the two ultimately come to blows. As expected, Panther's costume is "shrouded in Vibranium", and during his battle with Rogers we'll see him "scratching Cap's shield easily and his prowess will prove to be a viable threat." We can also expect to see a "sleek Panther jet of some type," which apparently looks very "Stark-like."
War Machine will be getting a huge armoury upgrade, and is said to appear more "tank-like" in the film. He'll also have a new shoulder cannon which can be detached and "used as a kind of warhammer/baton."
Fans of Hawkeye's classic 616 comic look will be happy to hear that Barton will be adding some more purple and a full right sleeve to his costume - though probably best not to hold your breath for the Wolverine-like mask.
As was previously reported, Scott Lang WILL debut his Giant-Man persona in this threequel, and he'll have a brand new "modern/techno stylish" outfit to go with it. Reportedly there will also be what sounds like an awesome visual of the character as Ant-Man, "standing on one of Hawkeye's arrows, ready to be launched."
The coolest bit of news relates to Falcon. We've already saw new duds at the end of Avengers: Age Of Ultron, but he'll be getting a few additions such as wrist lasers, grappling hooks, and... Redwing! Fans have wondered if we'd see Sam Wilson's falcon sidekick at any point, and he will debut in Civil War, but with one major alteration: he'll actually be a robotic drone that'll be "linked" to Falcon, but that he obviously doesn't control telepathically.
And finally, JoBlo reckon Cap will be adding his trademark chainmail armour to his costume. All he needs now are actual wings on his head and purists can rejoice!
So, a lot of interesting new tidbits for you guys to digest there. let us know what you think in the usual place. will be with on May 6, 2016.
