Hey youtubers it’s charlie and since Winter Soldier is getting ready to premiere I thought
it would be fun to talk about other big Captain America stories they could do for the third
movie in phase 3. Right now Marvel hasn’t announced a release date but they have hired
the same directors from Winter Soldier to start developing the movie.
There’s been a lot of big Marvel news this week with the new Guardians of the Galaxy
Trailer so in case you missed it I’m bookmarking Tuesday’s as like a permanent Marvel Video
Day. Be sure to subscribe to get everything!
The story of Captain America 3 will have to tie in with all the other films happening
in Phase 3 like Ant-Man, Thor 3 and Avengers 3 but here are the top 5 Captain America comic
book stories they could use. Number 5 - Dimension Z written by Rick Remender. It more of a science
fiction based story that involves this alternate dimension plot that’s a little bizzare,
but Kevin Fiege said that Phase 3 is all about Magic and that opens the door to the Multiverse.
Another big part of the story is Cap raising Arnim Zola’s son as his own and even being
possessed by Zola for a little while. Minus the multiverse aspect of the story, they could
totally use Red Skull’s daughter Sin or Zola’s son in a new movie.
Marvel even based their Fear Itself comic book on Sin.
Number 4 - Operation Rebirth. Captain America is forced to work with The Red Skull to defeat
Hitler. In the comic, Hitler’s consciousness was trapped in the cosmic cube or tesseract
as it’s called in the movies. So based on the events of the first Captain America movie,
they’d probably swap Hitler for the Red Skull. And swap the Red Skull for another
villain like Arnim Zola.
There are a lot of rumors that The Red Skull is going to be in Winter Soldier, but pending
that we still don’t know what happened to him after he got sucked into the tesseract
in the first movie, so the character is still alive until proven otherwise.
Number 3 - Crossbones and Sin. Captain America VS The Red Skull’s Daughter. This story
is all about how Crossbones played by Frank Grillo in Winter Soldier tracks down the Red
Skull’s daughter Sin and the two wreak havoc for Captain America. There is a big rumor
that Emily Van Camp is secretly playing Sin in Winter Soldier, but using the Sin character
would give a third movie a way to bring the Red Skull back full circle.
Plus we’re already confirmed to see Crossbones so most of the characters will have already
appeared in a Marvel movie.
Number 2 - The Death of Captain America. This would have to be tweaked just a little because
it heavily involves Iron Man and Robert Downey Jr only has a contract to appear in Avengers
2 and 3 right now. So using him again would be extremely expensive. But they could substitute
that character for another hero. It was the climax of the Civil War storyline
and would be a good story for Chris Evans to leave the franchise on, based on what happens
to Captain America at the end of the story. But since Evans is signed for at least 3 or
4 more movies, he’ll be around for a long time.
And Number ` - Captain America Reborn. This involves the resolution of the Death of Captain
America story and the Sharon Carter character. Since she’s being played by Emily Van Camp
in Winter Soldier we might get a few teases from these storylines. But Reborn is all about
him coming back from the dead with this supernatural Red Skull body possession plot.
It’s very magical slash metaphysical, so it would fit with the tone of phase 3 maybe
after a Doctor Strange movie.
And one last Bonus Option - Avengers Under Seige. This is all about Baron Zemo and the
Masters of Evil storming the Avengers Mansion and beating everyone within an inch of their
life. They crush Cap’s spirit by destroying all his World War II mementos from before
he got the Super Soldier Serum. It’s just villains twisting the knife in his wounds.
You’d have to substitute some of the Avengers for other characters, but Winter Soldier is
already playing with this theme a little as the villains injure Nick Fury pretty badly
in the movie.
There are a bunch of other possibilities for them to pick from but remember that all of
Marvel’s Phase 3 movies thematically have to blend well with the idea of Magic and tie
into the Infinity Guantlet storyline for Avengers 3 purposes. Just picture Captain America in
outer space.
The real trick is integrating the more cosmic elements of the Marvel Universe into the more
practical aspects of the Captain America character.
So let me know which other stories you’d like to see them do for Captain America 3
and do you think Red Skull will show up in Winter Soldier?
I haven’t totally decided what my next Marvel Movie video is going to be but be sure to
