Chris Evans once again dons the famous blue suit (which has received some upgrades this time around) in Captain America: The Winter Soldier aka Captain America 2. This will be his third time playing the character and from everything we've learned so far, it seems like we're in for a much different ride this time.
Evans sat down with IGN for a lengthy interview and discussed a wide variety of topics on the movie, from the new costume (he really likes it) to the cast (Robert Redford is "the nicest guy in the world"). Near the beginning of the interview, he talks about where we find Cap at the start of the movie:
"Sure, he feels comfortable within the structure he's been given. He likes to serve. He likes to take orders. He's like a herding dog; he needs a task. I think the issue in the first two -- in Captain America, it was about giving him the opportunity. Then he got the opportunity, and he was thrust into a different world. In Avengers, there were so many characters that it was tough to spend too much time with any one. In this movie, it's about him trying to not just acclimate to the modern world, but I think it's always been Cap's goal to do what's right and to be of service and to help where he can. In this movie I think the question is, 'Well, what is right?' I think it was a lot easier in the '40s to know who the evil was -- there's no disputing Nazis are bad! Now it becomes a little more of a difficult answer. There's a lot more of a gray area of 'What is the right thing? Are you of service to that cause?' That becomes a tricky dispute for Cap, because things were just done differently in the '40s. The threats are different now. Precautionary measures that are taken now can be questionable and somewhat suspect in his eyes. So it's a tough hurdle for him to jump."
Previous interviews and stories about The Winter Soldier point to the film as both a political thriller, at least in part, and even a commentary on the modern-day United States. The rest of the interview, which you can check out here, delves into Cap's fighting style, his relationship with other characters and more.
Captain America: The Winter Soldier hits theaters on April 4.
