Captain America: The First Avenger is an upcoming 2011 American superhero film based
on the Marvel Comics character Captain America. The film is
being directed by Joe Johnston,written by Christopher Markus and Stephen
McFeely, and stars Chris Evans as Captain America. The film
will be the fifth installment of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Captain America: The First Avenger first began as a concept in 1997 and was scheduled to be
distributed by Artisan Entertainment. However, a lawsuit caused disruption
to the project and it was settled in September 2003. After Marvel
Studios received a grant from Merrill Lynch, the project was set up
at Paramount Pictures. Directors Jon Favreau and Louis
Leterrier were considered to direct the project before Johnston was
approached in 2008. The principal characters were cast between March 2010 and
June 2010. Production of Captain America: The First Avenger began
in June 2010 and filming took place
in London, Manchester and Liverpool in the United Kingdom,
and Los Angeles in the United States. The film was converted
to 3D in post-production.
In 1942, Steve Rogers (Chris Evans) is deemed physically
unfit to enlist in the U.S. Army and fight
the Nazis in World War II. Volunteering instead for Project:
Rebirth, a secret military operation, he is physically transformed into a
super-soldier dubbed Captain America. With sidekick Bucky
Barnes (Sebastian Stan), he fights the Red Skull (Hugo Weaving), Hitler's
treacherous head of advanced weaponry, whose own plan for world domination
involves a seemingly magical object known as the Tesseract.
