Captain America Civil War will pick up after the events of Avengers Age of Ultron; filming to start in April -- report

After first appearing in Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Anthony Mackie will return as the Falcon in Captain America 3.

In an interview, Anthony Mackie said that Captain America: Civil War will be a global movie.

According to Comic Book Movie, while promoting his new movie, Black or White, Mackie revealed filming details of the movie.

"We start shooting in April," Mackie said. "So, it's gonna be a lot of flying and fighting for about five months... and I'm not mad at all."

When asked about the filming location of the movie, Mackie replied, "Puerto Rico, Berlin and Atlanta."

Captain America: Civil War will pick up from the end of Marvel Avengers: Age of Ultron.

Mackie will join Chris Evans as Captain America and Robert Downey Jr. as Iron Man.

Civil War will also introduce actor Chadwick Boseman as Black Panther, and Daniel Bruhl as the film's villain. Sebastian Stan (Winter Soldier), Samuel L. Jackson (Nick Fury) and Scarlett Johansson (Black Widow) are also expected to return.

The third Captain America movie's storyline has Iron Man and Captain America feuding over the Superhero Registration Act, which forces anyone with super-human abilities to register themselves with the US government, and agree to serve as part of a new police force.

While Tony Stark supports the programme, Steve Rogers does not, believing that it threatens the civil liberties of US citizens. Rogers and others opposing the act are forced to go on the run. This story will enable Stark to be a villain, of sorts, with his views going against the rest of his Avengers teammates.

The movie is scheduled for release on 6 May, 2016.
