Marvel Studios revealed the first footage from Captain America: Civil War at D23 in Anaheim during the  “Worlds, Galaxies and Universes: Live Action at the Walt Disney Studios event.

Chris Evans and Anthony Mackie joined Marvel Studios Kevin Feige on stage for the first footage from the third Captain America film.

Here are highlights:

Steve Rogers/Cap and Sam Wilson/Falcon and Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson) are in battle with Crossbones (Frank Grillo returning as Brock Rumlow) who taunts Cap with knowledge of Bucky.

Natasha and Clint will be on opposite sides of the conflict

William Hurt is back as General Thunderbolt Ross (from The Incredible Hulk).

Tension between Rogers and Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) but no fighting yet.

Appearances by Black Panther (Chadwick Boseman) and a hilarious moment with Ant-Man (Paul Rudd) gushing at Cap.

Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier (Sebastian Stan) is back but now a good guy?

The new film is based on a more recent comics story pitting heroes against heroes when the government enacts the Superhero Registration Act. Rogers leads the anti-registration forces while Stark sides with the government. The war will include the heroes above and Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen), War Machine (Don Cheadle), Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner), The Vision (Paul Bettany) and the new Spider-Man (Tom Holland).

S.H.I.E.L.D. veterans Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) Maria Hill (Cobie Smulders) are officially announced to be in the film but Sharon Carter/Agent 13  (Emily VanCamp) is in the sequel.

Martin Freeman and Daniel Bruhl are new additions to the Marvel movie universe. No official word on Freeman’s role but Bruhl is playing Baron Zemo.

Feige shared a video from Benedict Cumberbatch talking about playing Doctor Strange and confirmed Chiwetel Ejiofor as the villain Baron Mordo and Tilda Swinton as The Ancient One.

Doctor Strange opens November 4, 2016.
