New Captain America Shield-Wielding Details!

New production details for Marvel & Joe Johnston's Captain America: The First Avenger sheds light on the Patriots's mighty shield, and it's usage behind-the-lens. Check it Out!

Inside Dutch magazine Veronica is an on-set report & a few images which were posted in low-res on Christmas Eve for the much-anticipated Captain America: The First Avenger film. While the report has been covered, the magazine also shared minor details to the patriot's mighty shield-slinging.

"They mention that 25 shields were made for the production. Small ones were made for the fighting and running, and one was even made out of bronze that was impossible to lift. Chris Evans in some scenes threw a 'green frisbee' that will be turned into the shield using special effects."


The set images now in a much-greater quality, courtesy of my pal RealIronMan from SpiderMedia are provided below.





Star-studded with Chris Evans, Tommy Lee Jones, Hugo Weaving, Samuel l. Jackson, Neal Mcdonough,
Hayley Atwell, Stanley Tucci, and Sebastian Stan, Captain America: The First Avenger hits theaters in 3D July 22, next year.

Wicked. I can't wait to see what the shield looks like in action because it'll either end up looking brilliant, or utterly ridiculous. Don't let us down Joe...

I think the second pic is set in Hydra HQ, but I doubt its Red Skull's transformation sequence. Maybe its the scene where he goes rogue and disassociates from the Nazi party.

I have never been the biggest Captain America fan (although I did start liking him a lot more after his anti-registration stance during Civil War), but I am really looking forward to thus movie. I think it's going to be great!

@Guason- I'm gonna pretend you didn't just compare Cap's strength to Supes'! ;)

@Guason - Superman has trown stuff from Earth into the Sun and has hit a baseball to the moon and nailed a target in the bullseye. Captain American is not even in the same league as Superman.

^^^^ Dude.. it's called a joke, OF COURSE Cap can't throw something further than Superman, you know why ? cuz he's SUPERMAN !!!!!

Ok, guys seriously?! There was a trailler at comic-con, and on youtube! I have seen it so many times, and I just checked and it's there. Let me see if I can post it here

steelrocks
steelrocks - 12/28/2010, 1:15 AM

I know this is probably the trailler made just for ComicCon, with random moments from Iron Man and TIH, but it's still a trailler for the movie nonetheless. It's something to get you excited, I for goddamn sure am.

Also, see at 1:13, and also on the very last shot, that the wings are real! At least with that uniform.

The moment with Nick Fury is so f*cking epic!

@steelrocks Yes lets publicise the fake trailer even more because you know, you'l make more friends that way...

@steelrocks30

That was posted on here as a fan-made trailer ages ago.
Although it looks sort of real, it's not.

I don't know about the rest of you but there is one gratuitous scene that I think is a must in The Avengers and it's one that has appeared in the comics hundreds of times. I want to see a slow motion shot from above whoever the villain is, that shows Caps shield, Thor's hammer, Hawkeyes arrow and Iron Man's repulsor rays hitting him at the same time.

If they include that scene as it has appeared throughout the ages in the comics, I may self destruct on the spot.

I predict the trailer will be coming out with the Green Hornet on Jan 14th, or Sanctum on February 4th. I have a feeling it'll be in front of Green Hornet. The sooner the better right? :D

@steelrocks30

that trailer is so fanmade. the vials that are shown in the lab is taken from resident evil and the German Nazi in a cloak and black mask is from hellboy
steelrocks
steelrocks - 12/28/2010, 4:32 AM

Well if the trailler is fan made I apologize. I guess the fact that I didnt see hellboy/resident evil didnt help.

Bastards, I believed them!
steelrocks
steelrocks - 12/28/2010, 4:39 AM

Yes, I deserve all the sh*t and sarcasm. I have no problems admitting when Im wrong! Bring them on! :)

Damn it, now I join the group of people that cant wait for the trailler.. ugh!!!!

I still wont delete it because I think it's a cool video regardless. Wishful thinking!!

LEEE777 - 12/28/2010, 4:53 AM
Still think its stupid having silver in the shield, defeats the purpose of it being the flags colors lol???

But I too can't wait for the trailer, it wont be no Thor or Green Lantern, but its the third must see superhero movie thats for sure!

The Second picture seems to be the place the Red Skull desintegrates the Nazis...

@steelrocks30: I was at Comic Con and saw the teaser trailer. That was not it. Clearly fan made. There were clips from Hellboy, Resident Evil, Wolfman, and TIH. The real teaser trailer showed some planes super imposed flying over a map of Earth and WW2 sirens going off. Narration about the times and what have you. Then you see a shadowed Captain America as the camera pans up from a floor onto him. At the last minute he throws the shield at the camera. Thats all. Also they showed some test work with Hugo Weaving looking for the cosmic cube. He had not become the Red Skull at this point.
