SINGAPORE, March 28 — After all the recent speculation that set the Internet ablaze when Marvel Singapore tweeted a teaser of Marina Bay Sands reflecting off Captain America’s shield, TODAY has finally confirmed that Captain America’s Chris Evans, Sebastian Stan (Winter Soldier), Anthony Mackie (Falcon) and Captain America: Civil War director Joe Russo will be heading to Singapore come April 21.
Not unlike the previous X-men South-east Asian premiere held here in 2014, there will be a special blue carpet (a dig at Iron Man/Tony Stark’s penchant for red carpets) to welcome the Hollywood stars to our shores at the Marina Bay Sands’ skating rink from 6pm on April 21.
Directed by Anthony and Joe Russo, with a screenplay by Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely, Captain America: Civil War will see the beloved heroes of the Marvel Cinematic Universe fracturing into opposing factions — one led by Captain America and another by Iron Man — and clashing over a very divisive issue that could determine their entire future as costumed vigilantes.
In recent interviews, director Joe Russo has also called the film a love story, among other things. “These are two guys (Steve Rogers and Bucky Barnes) who grew up together, and so they have that same emotional connection to each other as brothers would, and even more so because Bucky was all Steve had growing up,” he told Empire magazine. — TODAY
