Captain America: Civil War is an American feature film of the superhero fantasy and action genres. It is the thirteenth film in the greater continuity of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and is the third film in the Captain America film series. The movie builds on elements introduced in the 2015 movie Avengers: Age of Ultron. The film takes its name and several key plot elements from the "Civil War" comic book story, which was a major crossover event published in titles by Marvel Comics in 2006 and 2007. The film was directed by Anthony & Joe Russo with a script written by Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely. It was produced by Marvel Studios and Marvel Entertainment, and distributed through their parent company, Walt Disney Productions. The film premiered in the United States on May 6th, 2016.
Captain America: Civil War stars Chris Evans once again reprising the role of star-spangled patriot Steve Rogers, who now finds himself facing off against his friend and teammate, Tony Stark, played by Robert Downey, Jr.. New as well as familiar faces round out the main cast of this installment, turning it into less of Captain America, and more of a mis-titled Avengers sequel. Scarlett Johansson is back as Natasha Romanoff, Sebastian Stan plays the Winter Soldier, Anthony Mackie takes to the skies once again as Sam "Falcon" Wilson, Don Cheadle climbs into his War Machine armor as Lieutenant James "Rhodey" Rhodes, Jeremy Renner slings a few arrows as Hawkeye, Clint Barton, and Paul Bettany continues to bedazzle as the Vision. Adding to this bag of mixed nuts is Elizabeth Olsen as the Scarlet Witch, Paul Rudd as Ant-Man, Scott Lang, Emily VanCamp as Sharon Carter, and Frank Grillo as everyone's favorite a-hole, Brock Rumlow. New faces to the Marvel Cinematic Universe include Chadwick Boseman as T'Challa - the Black Panther, and little Tom Holland suits up in his underoos as everyone's favorite wacky web-headed wall-crawler, Spider-Man.
