'Captain America 3' Directors Claim Production Is Working On Script, Reveal Hawkeye Cameo That Ended On Cutting Room Floor

“Captain America 3” directors Joe and Anthony Russo dished details about the development process of their upcoming Marvel movie in an interview with Super Hero Hype.

The brothers explained the development process for “Cap 3” is similar to how they began “Captain America: The Winter Soldier.” Joe revealed he and his brother have set up a room where they meet with Marvel producers to discuss the direction of the film’s narrative. Once the details are worked out, the writers draft the script and begin polishing their vision.

“Then once we have a script, read the script out loud, and stop and go as we read out loud and talk about how we can polish things or how we can make things better, if anybody has a stronger idea if we have something that’s not really working,” Joe told Super Hero Hype.

“So that process has been almost identical, other than the inception phase, because we’re all so close with each other now and have worked together and all have a short hand it doesn’t really feel any different.”

The directing duo couldn’t dish too many details about the upcoming “Captain America” film, but did confirm they wrote in a cameo in “The Winter Soldier” for Hawkeye. However, they encountered issues with the film’s running time and Jeremy Renner’s schedule.

“We had great stuff for [Hawkeye] actually in the film,” Joe told Super Hero Hype. “He had a couple of really cool scenes in the movie. It’s a big movie as it is, so it certainly helped that it’s not in there. I think it would increase the running time by about 10 or 15 minutes if they were in the movie, just because you want the right amount of time to actually treat those scenes properly. I think it was a scheduling issue.”

“Captain America 3” will be released to theaters on May 6, 2016.
