The first trailer for the upcoming film, Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier, has officially been released. The trailer, shown only at the 2013 San Diego Comic Con, is now available for all to see. Besides the film's titular villain, the Winter Soldier, the trailer strongly suggest a much larger threat. Could we possibly see Captain America vs the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D? ****WARNING SPOILERS BELOW****
In the newly released trailer for Captain America: The Winter Soldier, we get to see only a few clips of Cap faceing off against his old pal, Bucky Barnes. However, we do get much more foreboding feeling from Caps new employer, S.H.I.E.L.D.
The trailer heavily features actor Robert Redford as S.H.I.E.L.D. head Alexander Pierce. Recently, Redford let slip what is potentialy a major plot spoiler, during an interview with The Straits Times:
“I think a career requires a certain amount of reinvention. If you get caught in one track I think that can be dangerous. Success has a dark side to it. you want to be careful if you’ve had success at something, that you not try and follow it by just duplicating it. That’s why I’m doing this Captain America thing. I like the idea of playing a villain…I did that just because it’s a different thing for me to do.”
Audiences should also remember that in 2012's Avengers, it was the head of S.H.I.E.L.D who ordered the nuclear bomb drop on New York. The fallout would have killed thousands, including the film's heroes.
It should also be noted that at one point in the comics, it was revealed that S.H.I.E.L.D was actually under HYDRA control. HYDRA, of course, being the evil Nazi organization from the first Captain America film.
If it is true that S.H.I.E.L.D higher ups and HYDRA are in kahoots, just how deep does the deception go and what bearing might this have on Marvel's new TV show, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D?
