Captain America 3: Civil War picks up where Avengers: Age of Ultron left off, as Steve Rogers leads the new team of Avengers in their continued efforts to safeguard humanity.

After another international incident involving the Avengers results in collateral damage, political pressure mounts to install a system of accountability and a governing body to determine when to enlist the services of the team. The new status quo fractures the Avengers, resulting in two opposing camps, one led by Steve Rogers and the other led by Tony Stark.

As former friends become sworn enemies, an inevitable showdown looms, as new heroes join the fray and a nefarious villain slides the puzzle pieces into place for his masterplan.
