Captain America, has been mulling over since discovering the curroption at the top ranks of the Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division (S.H.I.E.L.D.).

However, the system still considers him as a vigilante.

Righteous and just as he is, Captain America must choose a side even if it will pit him against his own team. This is exactly what happens as the Avengers choose a side and turn on each other. Who are really the villains here and what happens when the most powerful have to fight each other to protect their beliefs? In the case of these powered individuals - a lot of action-packed sequences in one epic movie.

"Captain America: Civil War" will fight its way to the cinemas on May 6, 2016. Check out the incredible trailer below.
