Marvel’s interconnected universe of superheroes doesn’t end with The Avengers. In fact it’s only the beginning, as Iron Man 3 is already set for May 3rd, 2013, then on November 15th, 2013 it’s time for Thor 2. Now Marvel has announced that April 4th, 2014 is the day we’ll be getting Captain America 2.
Marvel/Disney issued a brief press release, saying, ‘The Walt Disney Studios has announced a release date for Marvel Studios’ sequel to the blockbuster Captain America: The First Avenger on April 4, 2014. The second installment will pick-up where the highly anticipated Marvel’s The Avengers (May 4, 2012) leaves off, as Steve Rogers continues his affiliation with Nick Fury and S.H.I.E.L.D and struggles to embrace his role in the modern world.’
It would appear therefore that we can expect both Chris Evans and Samuel L. Jackson in the movie, and with the likes of Cobie Smulders (who plays S.H.I.E.L.D’s Maria Hill in Avengers Assembled) having signed lengthy contracts covering a lot of Marvel movies, we can probably expect more continuing characters too.
Incidentally there’s still a May 16th, 2014, release date held aside for another Marvel movie, although as yet it’s not been been announced what it will be.
