Captain America: Civil War - Chris Evans on Marvel Split 'No One is Right or Wrong'
Just in case you’ve been off in a galaxy far, far away and forgotten about the Marvel cinematic universe Captain America himself Chris Evans has been chatting to Cineplex about the dichotomy at the heart of Civil War.
There’s little over three months to go until the Marvel universe is forever shattered when Tony Stark/Iron Man, played by Robert Downey Jr. and Steve Rogers/Captain America go toe to toe over the Superhero registration act and, as far as Evans is concerned, it’s a parallel that can easily be drawn in real life.
“It’s something we can all relate to in terms of how we perceive our own society and culture, in terms of what is best for people. You can go right down to Democrat and Republican. Everyone has a different opinion of what’s best".
He continued, adding that "you have this team of people who are destroying every city they go to, but they’re saving the world. So it’s a matter of, do we monitor these people or do we let them monitor themselves?"
"The beautiful thing with Civil War is that no one’s right and no one’s wrong; it’s just your personal opinion".
"We’re going to have a nice evolution where you have a guy like Cap, who grew up with structure - he was a soldier and he liked hierarchy, he liked the chain of command. Now, all of a sudden, you have a guy who used to love the system not so sure about trusting it. And a guy like Tony Stark, who used to buck the system and dance to the beat of his own drum all of a sudden thinking, maybe we need some order", Evans said.
Just what this means, we’ll have to wait until the April when Captain America: Civil War lands in cinemas.
