Captain America: The Winter Soldier has landed another premiere, this time in Cleveland, Ohio. The Rock and Roll capital of the world will host the Sentinel of Liberty's second outing on April 1st!
The placement of the premiere is a way of saying thank you to the city (where most of the film was shot). Here's what one half of the directing team, Joe Russo, had to say:
It has been a big priority of ours obviously to be able to have a premiere there and thank the people of Cleveland. We want to have a premiere that includes the local cast and crew and make some tickets available to the general public. It’s a way to say thanks and pay back the city for being such a great host.
The second half of the film's dynamic duo, Anthony Russo, also payed tribute to the city:
The city looks great on screen, thanks to the things that Ivan Schwarz has done in Cleveland, the industry is taking notice, and this is a way for the industry to support that.
The brothers claimed to be
"unable to comment" when asked about the rumours regarding their involvement in a future Cap film.
