After the global success of "Captain America: The Winter Soldier," "Captain America 3" will definitely happen.
According to new reports, screenwriters Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely are already developing a viable story for the next "Captain America" movie. There are countless plots they can use, but they are already leaning towards a specific direction.
In an interview with Den of Geek, Markus shared some developments on "Captain America 3's" plot.
"We've definitely set out on a more realistic road in the Cap movies, you know. Even more grounded than in the other MCU movies. And so it kind of rules out Cap fighting the Dinosaur Man or something like that. There are some that aren't gonna start and other ones that - I mean there's a couple we're playing with right now that we really want to take elements from. Which we'll not reveal... All I'm saying is psychotic 1950s Cap."
Chances are, "Captain America" fans will know what Markus meant by "psychotic 1950s Cap." In the comics, a die hard "Captain America" fan named William Burnside took his admiration to a whole new level by being his idol.
According to Marvel, "Following the reported deaths of Captain America and Bucky in 1945, the young man dedicated his life to the study of Captain America, earning a Ph.D. in American history in 1952, with a thesis on the legendary hero. Early in 1953, Burnside traveled to Germany to conduct research on wartime Axis files on Captain America. In the process, he discovered files revealing the true identity of the original Captain America as well as the lost Super Soldier serum formula."
"Returning to the United States, Burnside reported his finding to the government, but refused to divulge the serum's secrets unless allowed to become the new Captain America himself. Unlike previous successors to the identity, the scholar fanatically sought to become not only Captain America but also Steve Rogers, undergoing surgery to change his face and vocal cords and legally changing his name accordingly. However, when the Korean War ended, the government withdrew its plans for a national hero, and Burnside kept the serum for himself."
Burnside also had a sidekick named Jack Monroe. Both went insane because of the misuse of the Super Soldier Serum, and had to be placed into cryogenic stasis.
"Captain America 3" is slated to have a May 6, 2016 release date, a same showing date with "Batman Vs Superman." This proves to be the real battle for the Marvel superhero.
Stay tuned for more "Captain America 3" plot, cast, and release date rumors!
