Captain America: Civil War is starting to look like Avengers 2.5. The cast is stacked with various Marvel Cinematic Universe alums ranging from those introduced in Phase 1 like Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner, Sebastian Stan, to those introduced in Phase 2 like Anthony Mackie, Frank Grillo, and Elizabeth Olsen. Chadwick Boseman joins the cast as Black Panther, with Daniel Brühl playing Baron Zemo, and Martin Freeman as an unidentified character. Spider-Man will also make his debut, but has yet to be cast.

Now a new report says that Emily VanCamp will also be in the film. She will reprise her role as Agent 13 aka Sharon Carter the niece of Peggy Carter – although Captain America has yet to discover her lineage.

Since this is Civil War, and VanCamp’s return confirms Agent 13 has a role in the film, does this mean what we think it means? More below.

If Captain America: The First Avenger is a ’40s wartime movie serial, then Captain America: The Winter Soldier is a ’70s political thriller in the vein of films like Three Days of the Condor and All the President’s Men.

Directed by Anthony and Joe Russo (Arrested Development, Community), Captain America: The Winter Soldier picks up two years after the events of The Avengers. Steve Rogers (Chris Evans) lives in Washington, D.C. where he continues to work for S.H.I.E.L.D. A man in the wrong time, he struggles to adapt to contemporary society.

Yesterday’s trailer for Captain America: The Winter Soldier was pretty much the best of the bunch. It was all of the things you would want from a Marvel Studios’ film with a 70’s political thriller twist.

So while the international trailer is more or less the same kind of trailer that we just saw just edited in a different way, it does introduce Sharon Carter (Emily VanCamp), aka Agent 13. She is Peggy Carter’s (Hayley Atwell) niece, and possible love interest for Captain America/Steve Rogers.

Watch the international trailer here below.

Before 2013 ends and 2014 begins, Marvel Studios has teased us with four new images from the upcoming Captain America: The Winter Soldier starring Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, and Samuel L. Jackson, with brand new looks at the sequel’s villains, played by Sebastian Stan and Robert Redford.

The images debuted over at Empire Magazine and will appear in their December 31st print issue. Hit the jump to check out the new images.

It’s a bit ironic that the first trailer for Captain America: The Winter Soldier comes a couple of days after the end of the U.S. government shutdown. We see our hero, Captain America (Chris Evans), continuing to struggle living in the contemporary world. Though he still has that classic 1940’s charm and sentiment, Captain America is now fully realizing how dangerous secret government agencies can really be when corrupt bureaucrats and politicians have agendas and motivations they are pushing for. On top of that, there is a dangerous assassin on the loose who bares a striking resemblance to a fallen friend.

There is a lot to take in, but one thing is clear, Captain America: The Winter Soldier is going to be one very exciting film. Hit the jump to see the new trailer.
