The Russo Brothers celebrate Captain America: Civil War’s 10th Anniversary
Captain America: Civil War, the beloved MCU installment that kicked off Phase Three, was released a decade ago on May 6, 2016. The Russo Brothers, who directed the movies, have taken to their Instagram to celebrate the film’s 10th anniversary. The directors shared a series of exclusive behind-the-scenes photos.
The photo dump begins with BTS footage of the iconic clash scene between the two factions in the movie, led by Chris Evans’ Captain America and Robert Downey Jr.’s Iron Man. Other photos and videos include the Brothers at work behind the camera and never-before-seen rehearsal footage of fight scenes.
Another short clip in the post captures Anthony Russo’s birthday celebrations. The final photo of the carousel shows him and Sebastian Stan laughing.
Joe and Anthony Russo also added a caption for the post. They said, “We know a thing or two about 2016… It’s officially been 10 years since the release of Captain America: Civil War.”
In celebration of the movie’s 10th anniversary, the Russo Brothers attended an exclusive anniversary event. Speaking with CBR at the event, they looked back at the making of the film and what inspired them.
“By the time we made Winter Soldier, across the MCU, there was just a groundswell of love for the characters,” Joe Russo shared. He continued, “We were thinking about, ‘How do we challenge these characters moving forward?’”
Joe Russo explained, “And the most threatening thing that they could face seemed to be one another. A divisive breakup amongst themselves.”
The director also added, “We love making these movies. There is a bond that we have with the audience that’s unlike anything you could imagine. When you can sit in a packed theater with 700 people screaming like it’s a rock concert. You’re not going to get that experience making any other kind of film than one that is serialized, and has a 10-year emotional investment in it.”
