Captain America Trailer

The world's first avenger arrives

Captain America Trailer
24 March 2011

We're mere months away from the annual onslaught of films budgeted at more than the GDP of many small countries and the closer we get, the more we're being permitted to see.

One of the final summer films to release a full trailer, the second attempt to bring Captain America to the screen (for those of you who've repressed it, here's the first) has now unleashed a full 150 seconds worth of footage.

Chris Evans, of Fantastic Four not The Big Breakfast, takes on the lead role as a weedy soldier who finds himself transformed into a human weapon for a secret military program. This results in him going from zero to hero in about a minute without even looking at a Fitness First. He's soon recruited to hunt down The Red Skull, played by Matrix bad guy Hugo Weaving. Action ensues.

It's released on July 29th so curb your excitement a little bit while you watch the trailer here:
