The first Captain America: Civil War trailer  is here with a high impact, action and emotion punch as Steve Rogers takes on Tony Stark.

Chris Evans and Robert Downey Jr. introduced the first trailer on Jimmy Kimmel Live.  Marvel via Twitter  shared three new posters for the superhero showdown Based on the comics epic by Mark Millar.

The clash of heroes follows the events of Avengers: Age of Ultron in Sokovia and the hunt for assassin Winter Soldier. Bucky Barnes was Cap’s best friend who was a brainwashed assassin for Hydra. It appears Bucky is free of the mind control but someone is framing him for new acts of terror.

There’s always been an uneasy friendship between Rogers and Stark but that will explode into all-out war.

When Spidey joined Avengers in the Brian Bendis run, Peter Parker found a mentor in Tony Stark. I’d love to see Parker and Stark work together in a team-up film. It’s possible RDJ will announce he will appear in the Marvel/Sony Spider-Man film following Civil War. Continue reading ROBERT DOWNEY JR’s Big Announcement: Four Theories
