CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR - Chris Evans Details the Rift Between Steve Rogers and Tony Stark



This post contains SPOILERS for CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR. You've been warned.

This past weekend at the Salt Lake City Comic Con, actor Chris Evans teased spoke about (via ComicBook) what is being called the 'accords' in Civil War and how this is the rift between Steve Rogers and Iron Man.

"Tony actually thinks we should be signing these accords and reporting to somebody and Cap, who’s always been a company man and has always been a soldier, actually doesn’t trust anymore. Given what happened in Cap 2, I think he kind of feels the safest hands are his own. And these are understandable concerns, but this is tough, because even reading the script, you think, ‘I think I agree with Tony in a way, and I do agree that to make this work, you do need to surrender to the group. It can’t just be one person saying this is right and this is what we’re going to do.’ 
"But Cap has his reasons, he certainly has his reasons, and he is a good man and his moral compass is probably the cleanest, this is a tough thing. This is what made it so interesting while we were filming, and it’s hopefully what will make the movie great is nobody’s right, nobody’s wrong. There’s no clear bad guy here. We both have a point of view, which is akin to most disagreements in life and politics."

These 'accords' are the adapted version of the Super Hero Registration Act from the Civil War comic book story arc. While it seems like these 'accords' are similar to the Registration Act they are not because the comic book version required super-powered humans to reveal their powers and identity. In Civil War, it seems like the government wants heroes to register for accountability purposes when it comes to the Avengers and their involvement with worldwide threats.

CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR releases on May 6, 2016.
