New CAPTAIN AMERICA 2 Production Still And Property Master Explains Different Shields
Ahead of a promotional stint that'll level up anticipation for the Super Bowl spot, the Captain America: The Winter Soldier set visit embargo has been lifted, with a new pic & property master interview

Among the outlets who visited the set of Captain America: The Winter Soldier last year was Southern Bella's Ways To Save, and now it seems their embargo has been lifted. The blog has revealed a new production image as well as quotes from the Marvel sequel's property master, Russell Bobbitt. "In our movie we have four different looks because he goes into different scenarios, different missions," Bobbit said of Cap's shield. "He applies different material — Marvel materials that help make the shield stealth in different situations. So, we have four different styles. In theory in the Marvel lore, there’s one shield. In this movie we have a couple surprises with the shield. It’ll appear that there are different shields, but it’s only one shield. That one shield I have to make 50 of them to accommodate all the different (types of material)– I have hard rubber, soft rubber, fiberglass, metal to depending on if there’s an insert on it I use a metal one ‘cause it looks the best. We need so many because we do different sort of shots. You know, if he’s walking around and it’s on his back, I can put a really clean nice heavy one on him. And when we photograph them from behind, it looks shiny and new like metal. When he takes it off and starts fighting with it, obviously we can’t hit each other with metal shields or the boys won’t be able to play very long. So I make soft ones to accommodate that." Expect a new poster later today and a Super Bowl spot sneak peek tomorrow.
