Cap Sequel Set In Present Day

Just ahead of its disc debut Captain America: The First Avenger" writers Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely tell The HD Room that the proposed Captain America 2.will stay in the present day-rather than in the World War II setting of the original.


"I think it's safe for us to say that it's primarily set in the modern day. That seems to have been the biggest question people have been wondering about regarding the sequel... [W]e've been left with room to explore Cap entering the modern day wondering, 'What is all this? What's happened to the world' and so on" says Markus

"We made a movie where the world was in context for Steve Rogers. It was a movie where it was a more pure time, where there were clearly black-and-white, right-and-wrong, good-and-evil scenarios. And Cap is a guy who symbolizes that. Now he's in the now, and there is nothing black-and-white. So what do you do with that guy? How does he react to a much more uncertain time? So you're given this huge new palate to work with, but you can keep him the same" says McFeely.

Star Chris Evans would once again play Cap in the sequel  but it would likely not be hitting theatres until mid-2014

Once  "The Avengers" hits next May Everyone goes What happens next? not What happens before?
