The upcoming Marvel superhero flick "Captain America: Civil War" is not slowing down as fans continue to speculate what to expect in the anticipated film. Earlier reports suggest that the conflict between the Avengers, which results into two factions lead by Captain America and Iron Man springs from the passage of the Superhero Registration Act (SRA). However, a new report says that the plot revolves in another issue.
In an earlier report from Parent Herald, SRA requires superheroes to submit themselves to the government's control and regulation, which includes revealing their true identities. The genius billionaire Tony Stark supported the said bill, while Steve Rogers led the anti-registration crew.
However, it seems that there is more than SRA in the upcoming movie. Birth Movies Death reports that "Captain America: Civil War" is not about unmasking or revealing the superheroes secret identities. The report suggests that there are almost no characters in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, who remained unidentified which makes the SRA issue questionable. Instead, the issue was about The Accords.
According to ScreenRant, viewers are starting to debate the identity of The Accords, which was credited at the last scene of "Ant-Man." In the scene, Falcon, the winged sidekick of the titular superhero was talking with Cap about Buckey the Winter Soldier and Falcon was heard saying "Who knows if The Accords would let him help" referring to Stark who seems to have a connection with The Accords.
It indicated that even if Stark is willing to help them, The Accords might hold him back from doing so. The Accords could be treaties or agreements that govern a nation or group. Birth Movies Death defined The Accords as a global movement that seeks to govern the superheroes.
The Accords could impair the superheroes operations. It can order them not to get involved in a terrible situation where they felt their help is needed. In short, the superheroes will not be free to do as they wish. Their help and services will be limited as they are bounded by the changing whims of politics. Thus, the issue was the superheroes' responsibility.
On the other hand, according to The Hollywood Reporter, there was a long-brewing conflict within Marvel, which made Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige contemplate on leaving Marvel. Disney CEO Bob Iger approved a reorganization which frees Feige from Marvel Entertainment CEO Isaac "Ike" Perlmutter. Feige will be reporting to Disney Studios chief Alan Horn instead.
The budget for "Civil War" ballooned, and didn't sit well with Perlmutter who was known for being frugal. Perlmutter wanted to scale down the cost which may result into a less impressive production. One top player believes "it will be smoother and easier without Ike."
"Captain America: Civil War" will be released on May 6, 2016.
