In a move of JJ Abrams-level deception, it’s rumored that Civil War shot multiple death scenes in order to throw off leaks as to which character (or characters) will die in the movie.
While this is obviously just a rumor, you can’t take anything for granted, so here’s the obligatory SPOILER WARNING.
There. We are in the spoiler zone now.
There was a death scene that is reportedly for Peggy Carter shot earlier this year, but there are also conflicting reports about other scenes.
From what the rumor is saying, there were apparently four death scenes, including for Captain America, Falcon, War Machine, and Scarlet Witch. One or more of them may be real, but the others are there to fool people. Assuming that the rumor is true, which one of these is real?
It’s obviously not War Machine since he is shown badly hurt in the trailer, and Scarlet Witch is unlikely because her brother died just one movie earlier in Age of Ultron. Captain America’s death seems ever-more likely at this point, with Falcon or Bucky taking on the mantle after his passing. Except for the fact that Chris Evans is going to be shooting for Avengers: Infinity War. That, too, could be misdirection, though, so that isn’t as strong evidence as it seems.
So basically, we have no idea who’s actually going to die in Civil War, just pretty solid confirmation that someone is going to die. It may not even be one of the four people mentioned, for all we know.
The short of it is, rumors sometimes make things even MORE muddled.
Captain America: Civil War opens this May. That’s less than five months away, so there will probably be more rumors and reports as time goes by.
