After breaking the $1-billion dollar mark in its box office release, Captain America: Civil War is getting a sequel. Although Civil War 2 is still in underway, Marvel is already teasing fans of what's come in the follow-up title to Marvel Cinematic Universe's hugely successful film.
As reported by IGN, Marvel is releasing new illustrated teasers showing two Marvel superheroes with a tagline that says "Divided." Just like in the original Civil War movie, the rift will be passed on to the sequel.
One of the teaser images show Ms. Marvel opposite Riri Williams. Featured in the Invincible Iron Man, Riri is a clever college girl who has a knack for engineering. For some reason, she managed to reverse engineer Tony Stark's Iron Man suit and created one for herself in her dorm room. In the comics universe, James Rhodes (War Machine) reportedly died after getting paralyzed from his waist down. Riri will supposedly take her place.
Meanwhile, Civil War's LGBT fans are aching to see Captain America getting into a romantic pair-up with his buddy, Bucky Barnes. After the hashtag #GiveElsaAGirlfriend went viral on Twitter, #GiveCaptainAmericaABoyfriend followed suit. To address the issue, Sebastian Stan (Bucky Barnes) talked about the speculated romance between the two superheroes in a recent interview.
"Look, man, I think it's great. Movies are for people to relate to in whatever way they want. No one here is ever going to point a finger and say what's right and wrong. For me, it's like Awww. It's cute, it's great," said Stan as quoted by GQ Magazine. "If someone takes the time to think about that, that's great. I don't think of the character that way, though. But there's no right or wrong answer."
In another related update, Captain America: Civil War has finally broken the $400 million mark at the domestic box office after 43 days as per Forbes report. The movie is the fourth from Marvel Cinematic Universe to break $170m in the opening, top $400m in domestic box office, and reach the $1 billion in worldwide sales.
