Russo Brothers Say Civil War Isn’t Over Yet
Civil War was one of the biggest movies in Marvel movie history, and yet, according to the directors of the film, the movie wasn’t meant to be self contained like many think.
“We always thought of this move as the start of the war. It’s not over yet.” said the Russo brothers in an online Q&A. Considering the ending of the film, this isn’t too far fetched, as both sides were still dealing with the fallout of the events of the film. Later on, the Russos were asked about how they’re feeling about Infinity War, which is set to be even bigger than Civil War.
Joe continued, saying: “There could be a lot of pressure. We put pressure on ourselves, we feel the pressure. At the same time we have to be very zen and we have to step outside of that pressure because if you make decisions based on expectations and based on feeling that pressure, you’re going to make bad decisions.”
He added: “Ultimately, at the end of the day, the thing that we prioritize above all else is storytelling, and we just focus on the storytelling and the characters and how they fit into the narrative, and we just keep trying to tell the best story that we can every time out….We try to ignore any sort of external pressures because they can just lead you to a bad place creatively.”
Captain America: Civil War is now available on Blu-ray, DVD and Digital HD formats. Avengers: Infinity War is slated for a May 4, 2018 release.
