Uh, what?
Also Hugo Weaving? Oh fuck yes.
Oh it's a reality-warping weapon.

Of course it is.

[QUOTE=Carne;25873031]An extra...for 6 months? What, were you going to appear in every scene in the whole film?[/QUOTE]
I know it sounds weird, but I was apparently ment to do something related to the lead, like I would be used in shots where his face was not seen, for example when he's walking away and you just see the back of his head. Something along those lines, it was ment to speed up filming and so on so they wouldn't have to get the lead actor to constantly come out (because he may get cold or something :c) and film.

Director commetnary of the pictures from Entertainment Weekly.
[quote]Last week Entertainment Weekly's name burned through the Internet with its exclusive imagery from Captain America. This week, CBM's SciFi Media Zone exclusively presents director Joe Johnston's comments on those images.[/quote][IMG]http://www.comicbookmovie.com/images/users/gallerypictures/17539L.jpg[/IMG][INDENT]JOE JOHNSTON: This is a frame grab from the rebirth scene, a moment after Steve steps out of the rebirth pod. He's a little dazed by the transformation process and a bit wobbly on his feet, but looking for all the world like a super-hero. Chris worked out for days for the shot of the pod opening and revealing his new self, and the iron pumping really paid off.[/INDENT][IMG]http://www.comicbookmovie.com/images/users/gallerypictures/17544L.jpg[/IMG][INDENT]JOE JOHNSTON: This shot shows the rebirth pod with Steve inside. Erskine is about to begin the procedure.[/INDENT][IMG]http://www.comicbookmovie.com/images/users/gallerypictures/17541L.jpg[/IMG][INDENT]JOE JOHNSTON: Red Skull about to evaporate a trio of Nazis who have come to confiscate his technology to serve the Reich. Hugo Weaving was really the only choice for Red Skull. Hugo is a chameleon as an actor. He's played so many incredibly versatile roles, from the LORD OF THE RINGS films, MATRIX, PRISCILLA QUEEN OF THE DESERT. He's never failed to create a multi-layered and complex character. In my own experience with him on THE WOLFMAN, he took a part that was much less significant and inspired us to develop the character into a pivotal role. I wanted Hugo to play Red Skull to SEE what he would bring to the character. He's one of those actors you don't want to look away from."[/INDENT][IMG]http://www.comicbookmovie.com/images/users/gallerypictures/17545L.jpg[/IMG][INDENT]JOE JOHNSTON: A gang of Hydra bikers intent on chasing down Steve on his custom Stark-modified Harley Davidson.[/INDENT][IMG]http://www.comicbookmovie.com/images/users/gallerypictures/17540L.jpg[/IMG][INDENT]JOE JOHNSTON: Hayley Atwell and Chris Evans are seen in uniform in Allied Headquarters, a fantastic multi-room set constructed at Longcross Studios, an ex-tank factory outside of London.[/INDENT][IMG]http://www.comicbookmovie.com/images/users/gallerypictures/17543L.jpg[/IMG][INDENT]JOE JOHNSTON: The submarine was built by Paul Corbould's team of special effects technicians. It can actually dive and resurface, travels at 12 knots, has a watertight compartment for the actor, Richard Armitage, who plays a very convincingly evil spy, Heinz Kruger.[/INDENT][IMG]http://www.comicbookmovie.com/images/users/gallerypictures/17538L.jpg[/IMG][INDENT]JOE JOHNSTON: The last picture is a shot of Chris, returning from Steve Roger's first mission, when we goes AWOL to rescue his pal, Bucky Barnes.
So there we go, Nazis.

It's no surprise as the Director once worked in the Special Effects department at ILM.

Last month a friend of mine was in Manchester (UK) where they happen to be filming some scenes for this. Here are some of the sets he found.

In the latest issue of [B]Wizard Magazine[/B] is an in-depth Q&A session with actor Chris Evans, whose wrapped on the much-anticipated [I]Captain America: The First Avenger[/I], and prepping for the highly-anticipated [I]Avengers[/I] film.
[B]Comic book fans are particularly protective of Captain America. He is after all supposed to be the physical and moral pinnacle of humanity. Does that shield feel heavy under all that pressure?[/B]
[I]As far as the physicality goes, that comes from the serum, and I think special effects will help me carry the load. As far as who he is as a man, the reason he's chosen for this experiment is because he has a pure heart. It's the morality, the nobility. He's a real redeeming character to play, it's exciting to think of playing him. I actually have a friend of mine who I'm modeling the character after. This guy is actually an Eagle Scout, he's one of those guys who stayed in the Boy Scouts all the way until he was 18. He's just a good human being. He does the right things, he's open, he's honest, he's sincere, he's selfless. It's something that I think everyone aspires to. A lot of time I play characters who don't have any redeeming quality [Laughing].[/I]
[B]Besides Captain America, you also played the Human Torch in "Fantastic Four," and "The Losers" is also based on a comic; have you had any close encounters with rabid fans?[/B]
[I]It's great so far, They're so entusiastic. They want the product [to be] as good as you want the project to be. These guys live and die for it. It reminds you why you make these movies. These people want it to be good so desperatly, that you so desperatly want to give them what they're looking for. The last time at WonderCon, we were in the middle of an interview, and I had to run to the bathroom. I raced around the corner and I threw open the bathroom door and as I was walked in, I literally bumped right into a Stormtrooper. It was the funniest thing in the world. He just washed his hands, and he picked up his helmet and blaster. It was awesome. I just laughed the whole time I was in the bathroom.[/I]
[B]But when the casting was announced, there was positive and negative reaction. Did you keep an eye on the comments?[/B]
[I]I can understand if fans are wondering. That's okay. I'm obviously taking their concerns to consideration, but I can't get too swept into it, otherwise I'll start beating myself up and losing my confidence.[/I]
[B]What is it knowing your going to go from a hige blockbuster like "Captain America" to an even more mammoth blockbuster in "The Avengers"?[/B]
[I]When I was deciding whether or not to jump on board on "Captain America," that certainly came into consideration. Well if I do "Captain America," in a few months, I'm going to get to work with [Robert] Downey Jr. and Samuel l. Jackson and all these amazing actors. That's a dream. But I'm trying not to get ahead of myself.[/I]
[B]Before "The Avengers" you worked on ensembles with "Losers" and "Fantastic Four." How do you function as part of a team?[/B]
[I]It's just nice having a group of people to prepare with and rehearse with and come to set every day and bounce things off of. it's always nicer to play a back and forth game when you're trying to act.[/I]
[B]The Losers" looked like it was a physically insense shoot. Did you get a chance to do any of your own stunts?[/B]
[I]There was one scene when my character does this Parkour thing up a building and I thought great, I've always wanted to mess around with that. The stunt guy showed me a little video of it right when I got to Puerto Rico, kind of the idea of what he was thinking. I said, this is great, let me know when we're going to shoot this and I'll give this a whirl. We got to that day and I was stretching and I was all ready: I got my little pads on. I walked on to the set, and I said, "Okay can the stuntman just show me what he's doing just once." And then the stuntman just scaled up this building-and I said, "Okay I'll be in my trailer. Good luck guys, I'm going to have nothing to do with that. I don't know who the hell thought I was thinking I could touch my toes a few times and then go out there and scale a building.[/I]
[B]Danny Boyle, who directed you in 2007's "Sunshine," said that you were an incredibly underappreciated talent. But do you feel that's about to change with "Captain America" and "The Avengers"?[/B]
[I]I am definitely optimistic about the films that are coming out. I think it's no secret that I've been a part of a few films that have missed the mark. And it's upsetting when that happens. It's upsetting working as hard as you can in your respective field given the fact that a film has all these difference creative elements to it and you can only do so much with what you are expected to do. And it's a disappointment when a film comes out and it's not what you hoped it would be. There's really no formula: I've seen a lot of movies that I would have gladly walked out of the theater that made hundreds of millions of dollars at the box office.[/I]
While Joe Johnston directs [I]Captain America: The First Avenger[/I] into theaters July 22, next year, director Joss Whedon assembles [I]The Avengers[/I] on May 4, 2012. And filming begins early next year.
There's not much to see but hey, it's a small teaser.
