CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE WINTER SOLDIER arrived as the follow-up to the 2011 film Captain America, and the promotional poster for this chapter has been released. The artwork features a battered shield with a white star at its center, worn and weathered, set against a deep black backdrop with the release date printed at the bottom. Marvel released the poster on its Pinterest channel, signaling the start of a bold marketing push for the sequel.
Chris Evans returns to play Captain America, a man who becomes a superhero after a serious illness. Rather than retelling the hero’s origin, the film centers on a formidable foe known as the Winter Soldier, promising a tense clash of power and motive.
Directed by Anthony and Joe Russo, the film opened in theaters on April 4, 2014. Joining Evans are Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow and Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury, delivering the fast paced, action-forward energy fans expect from Marvel Studios.
Fans wondered whether they would catch Captain America The Winter Soldier when it arrived in cinemas the following year. Readers were invited to share thoughts on the poster in the comments.
