Born during the Great Depression, Steve Rogers grew up a frail youth in a poor family. Horrified by the newsreel footage of the Nazis in Europe, Rogers was inspired to enlist in the army. However, because of his frailty and sickness, he was rejected. Overhearing the boy's earnest plea, General Chester Phillips offered Rogers the opportunity to take part in a special experiment... Operation: Rebirth. After weeks of tests, Rogers was at last administered the 'Super-Soldier Serum' and bombarded by 'vita-rays.' Steve Rogers emerged from the treatment with a body as perfect as a body can be and still be human. Rogers was then put through an intensive physical and tactical training program. Three months later, he was given his first assignment as Captain America. Armed with his indestructible shield and and battle savvy, Captain America has continued his war against evil both as a sentinel of liberty and leader of the Avengers.

@JoshW is your source reliable? Because I'm stoked to see more after the 30 seconds!

28th? So it'll be coming out with Paramount's "Rango" on the 4th?

PaulRom: Well, he's been 100% reliable so far, but there's no guarantee with things like this I'm afraid...for example, plenty of other people said that the Captain America teaser would be online at 7pm last night and it wasnt! :) We'll all just have to wait and see for the time being.

TheTitman: Same here. Everything from the amazing CGI they used to make Chris Evans look like a weed to the Red Skull and Dum Dum's bowler hat were perfect. I know it was only 36 seconds, but Johnston and Marvel seem to have really nailed the right tone and WWII feel. It'll be the best CBM of 2011!

Love the posters, but I would have prefered it not to say "AVENGE" accross his chest. AWESOME spot on TV, no wI am less worried about the suit, or Evens. RedSkull looked superb.

No helmet for Thor, no mask for Cap. Yes it bothers me.

Evans is certainly not like his 'usual' self in this movie/trailer. He has his manliness utilized more; less surfer boy, lol.
