CAPTAIN AMERICA-shooting July 2010:Casting, Rumors, Pics till release

Re: CAPTAIN AMERICA-shooting July 2010:Casting, Rumors, Pics till rele

I think it's too early to call, since it's the stunt guy's outfit, which, as has been said, may be looser to accommodate stuntwork.

It's hard to judge the colors, too, because they design these things to "read" a certain way when the suit is viewed through the filter they'll be using, and the camera snapping these pics doesn't have that. Many people were worried about the bright blue of the series five TARDIS in the set pics, but when it appears in the show, it looks fine.

Just like the complaints about the lack of wings in the concept drawings, we'll have to wait and see.

MTV on TFA: CA set visit

They say that a picture is worth a thousand words, but something tells me I'll need a few more words than that to fully explain what you're going to see here.

For now, the short version: I recently traveled to London to check out the set of "Captain America," director Joe Johnston's currently shooting adaptation of the classic Marvel Comics series. Sadly, I can't talk about the specifics of my visit just yet, so you won't hear a peep from me about Cap's costume or Red Skull's makeup effects. (Spoiler Alert: They're both frakkin' awesome.)

But I will say that I had a blast on set and was very impressed with what I saw. You'll know more in the coming months, but for now, all I can do is leave you with this picture of me grinning like an idiot, holding Cap's shield.

It seems like the shield has some suit designs incorporated in it

I still don't get why they went with silver instead of white.
 
Re: CAPTAIN AMERICA-shooting July 2010:Casting, Rumors, Pics till rele

With the amount of gleam on that shield, it would look silver even if they used white!
 
Re: CAPTAIN AMERICA-shooting July 2010:Casting, Rumors, Pics till rele

So what is the shield made of then? Glad you asked. Seems some featurettes on the Iron Man 2 DVD/BR, out 9/28, may indeed answer that question.
More features of interest to fans will be finding out what Cap's shield is made of(Will it differ from the comics?)
Get a close look at what's inside Howard Stark's case and read Howard's first comic book issue of Captain America
If you looked fast in IM:2 you saw a slight corner to a 40's era Captain America comic. Looks like the DVD will have a digital copy of that issue. Will it be relevant in some way?

Sadly it seems the brief Cap footage from Comic Con will likely not be included as rumored.

Some more set photos from the Manchester filming.
I wonder how long some of this will be on screen.
I imagine it zipping by in some chase sequence.

She looks yummy as Peggie...and I actually thought you would have already posted lol.
 
Re: CAPTAIN AMERICA-shooting July 2010:Casting, Rumors, Pics till rele

I still can't get over how cool it is that this movie is set in the 40s. I was sure they'd mess it up and move it to present day.
 
Re: CAPTAIN AMERICA-shooting July 2010:Casting, Rumors, Pics till rele

Nice pics!!! The period setting was such the way to go with this film. Wanting to keep my expectations in check though.

I like the comment someone made in the discussion thread under the Chris Evans photo.
That based on his attire he might be shooting a scene in which he has just been administed the super soldier syrum. Perhaps about to chase down someone for a dasterdly deed.
 
Re: CAPTAIN AMERICA-shooting July 2010:Casting, Rumors, Pics till rele

It looks like that since he's wearing all white. It was only a logical choice to make this first film a period piece and tell the origin story. I suspect that the end of the movie could have an epilogue with maybe Tony Stark or Nick Fury finding Cap frozen, setting up the "Avengers" and the Captain America sequel.

Looks like he might have had a rude awakening. He's barefoot.

Chris is wearing fake feet to make it look like he's running barefoot

Looks like Cap doesn't need guns. He comes with his own pair.

Wow, he looks great in the civvies - very Flash Gordon-y - really looks the part even out of costume. :bolian:

That's my assumption, too.
 
Re: CAPTAIN AMERICA-shooting July 2010:Casting, Rumors, Pics till rele

^Maybe he can continue his dominance of the comic movie adaptations by playing Flash next!
 
Re: CAPTAIN AMERICA-shooting July 2010:Casting, Rumors, Pics till rele

I pulled a few pics also. Some closer up of Haley Atwell.
The fake feet for his running mentioned upthread can be seen here as well.

This has to be a companion piece to the one posted above of him running.

Either the end or beginning of the run/chas sequence. I'm thinking end and perhaps his target just got away in a helicopter?

or he could just be looking up at a crane camera or crane seat where the director is...

They'll reshoot the deleted scene from Incredible Hulk using Mark Ruffalo instead. :)
