Thanks to some lucky New York residents in Times Square while filming was taking place, we now have some fairly solid details of what exactly was going on. Here's a brief rundown from the general chatter on Twitter coming mainly from @SaFiRu7 who was kind enough to keep us all updated as to what exactly was happenning.
-Chris Evans and Samuel L. Jackson were filming a scene together.
-Chris Evans was not in costume as Captain America.
-Today was apparently the final day of filming for Captain America: The First Avenger.
-It would appear that the scene was set in the present day, not the 1940s.
And here are a couple of blurry screengrabs I nabbed off of a live video feed of Times Square in New York:
Anyone else think that looks like it could be Samuel L. Jackson's Nick Fury? Be sure to share your thoughts on all this news in the usual place, and if you have any photos from today's filming, get in touch by clicking on the "Contact Me" link at the top left hand side of this page!
