As if today's Captain America: Winter Soldier poster wasn't enough hype for the day, USA Today has an exclusive look at the film ahead of Thursday's official trailer debut with two new stills of Chris Evans and Samuel L. Jackson, plus new info from Samuel L. Jackson and the Russo bros.
"There's nobody better at that kind of [action] than Marvel if you're going to attempt to pull that off and go for it," Joe Russo says. "We all tried to up the ante with what happens in this movie in terms of what's come before, and I think we've done that."
On the Winter Soldier, Anthony Russo says, "He's an amazingly drawn character. He's so well conceived. [Ed Brubaker has] one of the best comic runs in the last 20 years, one of our favorite comic runs of all time & we really want to do it justice. It was important to us to make sure he just jumped off the page to the screen."
"Some of the people who used to be our enemies are now our allies," Samuel L. Jackson says. The new film has Captain America "trying to figure out, 'Well, how do we trust those guys?' or 'How do we trust the guys that you didn't trust who don't trust you?' And explaining to him that the black and white of good guys/bad guys has now turned into this gray area."
