Captain America: Civil War - Chris Evans on Why it's Not an Avengers Film
Captain America: Civil War will follow on from both The Winter Soldier, in which S.H.I.E.L.D. betrayed the titular hero, and Avengers: Age of Ultron, in which he found out that his teammates, and in particular Iron Man, are capable of betrayal.
In an interview for Disney Twenty-Three, the actor said "Even though there are a lot of characters, the focus is on Steve and his struggle. Especially his struggle with Tony STark... It's exciting to see a guy who's as optimistic and as selfless as Steve be met with letdown, betrayal, frustration and selfishness.
"There are events and people in his life that test him - that challenge him and force him to reevaluate who he is and what he wants out of life."
Marvel president Kevin Feige recently said "We've seen it coming. The clues were there. When you watch the other films you see how Captain America and Iron Man fight the bad guys together, back-to-back, but they have differences. And there is something that happens in the world that divides them."
Captain America: Civil War arrives May 6.
