‘Captain America: The Winter Soldier’ Trailer Debuts
With Iron Man 3 sitting as the highest grossing film of the year and Thor: The Dark World just around the corner and building some great buzz, Marvel’s Phase 2 is certainly off an running. Now we have the first trailer for Captain America: The Winter Soldier, which looks to be just as exciting and in line with the other fun that Marvel Studios has offered up in recent years. Based on this trailer and the footage screened at San Diego Comic Con this past summer, the film certainly seems to be keeping in step with what comes next, following the events of The Avengers, while also creating its own identity. If The First Avenger was a pulpy, throwback superhero film, mixed with some war movie aesthetics, The Winter Soldier has more of an espionage-themed vibe, mixed with some pretty large-scale action. Regardless, as fellow Why So Blu writers Sean Ferguson, Brandon Peters, and I were big fans of Cap’s first outing, this next adventure can’t come soon enough. Check out the rest of this post to view the trailer, along with some posters and images from the film.

Joining forces with the Black Widow, Captain America struggles to expose the ever-widening conspiracy while fighting off professional assassins sent to silence him at every turn.

Looks really good!
All those city shots were in Cleveland. And they changed nothing in the background unlike how they altered it in Avengers. Amazing! I used to work in the brown building in the trailer.
Can’t wait to see this!
