Now here is an interesting twist - Chris Evans, during one of his promotional interviews, said that it will be Civil War that will set up the final stage of Marvel's Phase III. And to think that we believed that Thor will get his place in the Marvel spotlight during Ragnarok"¦
And it made sense to believe so, since Infinity War is a cosmic event - and what better way to introduce it than by a sequel about gods? Well, according to Chris Evans, Civil War will be the one to do so.
Check out on the next page what the actor said!
Civil War - more than we believed?
The Civil War
"Captain America: Civil War is the jump-off into The Avengers: The Infinity War. Civil War is going to be the setup for the real battle. So yeah, there are a lot of people – a lot of people in Cap 3," said Chris Evans. (via Cinema Blend). But what does that mean?
We could see this going any of these two ways. The first one is that Captain America: Civil War is the beginning of Phase III, so it is only logical that it is a setting of the Infinity War. So there is nothing too out of the ordinary in here.

So maybe, just maybe, a 5th Infinity Stone will be discovered. Or maybe one of the villains (Zemo and Crossbones were already confirmed) is a puppet for the Mad Titan. Or maybe Thanos will make an appearance - as we all know, at the end of Avengers: Age of Ultron, he decides to search for the gems himself. And since Vision has one of those gems on his forehead"¦
Anyway, what do you believe? How can this play out in the end?
