Marvel Releases The First ‘Captain America: The Winter Soldier’ Trailer [Video]

Anticipation for Captain America: The Winter Soldier is running pretty high, and it's really not surprising why. Captain America: The First Avenger ranks among the more critically successful of all the films set in the Marvel cinematic universe, and so its sequel is certainly one that many viewers would be looking forward to. Further stoking excitement is the fact that, as it reportedly will heavily feature Black Widow and Nick Fury, it serves as a sequel of sorts to last summer's Avengers movie. The film is still six months away, but Marvel has just revealed the first teaser trailer for Captain America: The Winter Soldier, which you can view below.

Captain America was created by Joe Simon and Jack Kirby. Directed by Anthony and Joe Russo, Captain America: The Winter Soldier is based on a story by Ed Brubaker and Steve Epting, and stars Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Samuel L. Jackson, Emily VanCamp, Robert Redford, Cobie Smulders, Anthony Mackie and Sebastian Stan. The film arrives in theaters April 4, 2014.
