'Avengers: Infinity Wars' Movies Will Film Back-to-Back Over Nine Months
Sorry, superheroes - no vacation for you.
The cast of "Avengers: Age of Ultron" are furiously making the press rounds for the movie, which opens this weekend, but some of them won't be getting much of a break after that. Chris Evans, who plays Captain America, revealed to Esquire just how busy he'll be for, oh, the next few years with his Marvel commitments.
"We start ['Captain America: Civil War'] in a couple weeks, and then that shoots until August or something like that. August or September," he said. "Then I've got some downtime and I can do with it as I please."
He hopes to squeeze in some other movie projects - maybe even direct - but Evans can't put away the suit for long.
"Then we start the 'Infinity War,' I think, some time in the third quarter. Fall or winter of 2016. That's going to be like nine months to shoot both movies back to back," he noted.
The two-part "Infinity War" movies, directed by Anthony and Joe Russo, are due to hit theaters in 2018 and 2019. For his part, Evans accepts his packed schedule as part of the job.
"You know, you plan around the Marvel responsibilities," he said. "You have to."
