Captain America: Civil War - 12 Biggest Rumours You Need To Know (Dec 5th)

6. Avengers: Disassembled

The trailer included a very intriguing sequence that briefly seemed to suggest that Cap and Falcon were having their weapons confiscated by a force somehow associated with Martin Freeman's character and Agent Sharon Carter. Could this be SHIELD decommissioning the Avengers as a field organisation in response to Cap's defiance of orders and the legislation laid out by the Accords? It's certainly got tongues flapping on social media.Rating: 5/10 It's a possibility, particularly if the Civil War frictions actually continue throughout Phase 3 until the super-team get back together during Infinity War, but reservations have to come from how brace it would be. In purely narrative terms, Marvel need Civil War to leave the heroes in even more disarray than at the end of Age Of Ultron, and having the team officially disbanded would be a smart move. As would driving Cap underground with what remains of his renegades, rather than killing him off temporarily.
