Cap 2 Begins Production In March

Chris Evans told Collider that production on the comic book sequel Captain America: The Winter Soldier will start in March of next year.


The story is expected to follow the acclaimed comic storyline The Winter Soldier in which Captain America's (Evans) sidekick Bucky (Sebastian Stan) is resurrected as a brainwashed super-assassin known as the Winter Solider.

 Anna Kendrick, Imogen Poots and Felicity Jones are the current front-runners to play the female lead. Details of the role itself are unknown, though in the comic storyline Peggy Carter's (played by Hayley Atwell in Captain America: The First Avenger) niece Sharon had a key role.

Anthony Mackie is poised to play Harlem crime fighter Falcon, one of mainstream comics' first black superheroes. Falcon, aka. Sam Wilson, can telepathically talk to birds and has a suit that allows him to fly and enhances his strength.

Joe Russo and Anthony Russo will direct the sequel, using a script by Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely.

The sequel will hit theaters April 4, 2014.
