There is virtually no way that the main Avengers roster emerges from Captain America 3 unscathed, and that means there’s an even smaller chance that Avengers: The Infinity War Part I is going to be any kind of “traditional” Avengers movie. This scenario was teased in the trailer for “Captain America: Civil War“, where both Bucky and Captain America are seen battling Iron Man.

In the film version, the government has decided after the destruction of Sokovia (Avengers: Age of Ultron) enhanced beings need to register.
The first trailer for the highly-anticipated film Captain America: Civil War has hit the internet, and it is full of awesome footage. The heroes of the Marvel Universe took sides, did a fair amount of soul-searching, and went at each other. The trailer has a lot to take in. The trailer indicates we might be seeing a more nuanced argument than we got on the page, with Tony backing what he sees as reasonable government oversight, perhaps motivated by the guilt he feels over the chaos Ultron caused.
So far, he’s pretty much confirmed himself to be the MCU‘s Black Knight and having him replace Cap as the Civil War big casualty would be too raw. There are brief scenes of Black Panther fighting The Winter Soldier (this is our first look at The Black Panther, and his outfit looks great), Cap and TWS fighting Iron Man, and a whole ton of security soldiers getting whipped up on.
Aside from him, Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olson) is also seen flying in the trailer. However, Sebastian Stan’s Bucky Barnes/The Winter Soldier is really the pivotal character of the whole war in the trailer, as the former brainwashed HYDRA assassin regains his memories and his old best friend Steve Rogers – who declares war with his newer friends just to keep Bucky safe. It is just a guy in a red shirt.
“Captain America: Civil War” is the Black Panther’s introduction into the MCU, and since Boseman has already reportedly signed on for five movies, he will be an important asset to the Avengers. So, whose side are you gonna choose?
