Last year, the plans for Phase 3 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) was announced and it has a movie timeline that dates all the way to 2019. Following the success of both "Avengers" and its sequel, "Avengers: Age of Ultron," a two-part third installment has also been confirmed.
While promoting the recently unveiled Ultron film, Chris Evans (Steve Rogers/ Captain America) discussed his upcoming filming schedule
"We start [Captain America: Civil War] in a couple weeks, and then that shoots until August or something like that. August or September," said the 33-year-old actor to Esquire.com. "Then I've got some downtime and I can do with it as I please...And then we start the Infinity War, I think, some time in the third quarter. Fall or winter of 2016. That's going to be like nine months to shoot both movies back to back."
"Civil War" and "Infinity War" Part 1 will both be directed by Joe and Anthony Russo, who takes over for Joss Whedon. The script will be written by Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely.
The third installment of Captain America will be release on May 6, 2016. The first part of "Avengers: Infinity War" will be released in May 4, 2018 while Part 2 will be hitting cinemas the following year on May 3, 2019.
Infinity Wars Plot
Currently, the plot of the movie hasn't been disclosed but it will allegedly form a new team of Avengers. Following the plot of "Avengers: Age of Ultron," it's believed that the line-up will include War Machine (Don Cheadle), Quicksilver (Aaron Taylor-Johnson), Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen) and the Falcon (Anthony Mackie). The new combination of heroes will be led by original heroes Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson)and Captain America.
Recalling the post-credit scene of "Age of Ultron," it's believed that the two-part movie will involve Thanos.
Speculations point to the possibility that the "Infinity War" films will be a culmination of all the movies in the MCU. Screen Rant writes, "Avengers: Infinity War represents the culmination of all the films so far, bringing all of its story threads and characters together in a war against Thanos (Josh Brolin) who will somehow acquire all of the Infinity Stones, some of which we've already seen in a few of the films."
Stay tuned for more updates.
