Captain America: Civil War - 10 Ways It Must Set Up Phase Three

5. A New Version Of SHIELD

Ever since it was revealed that HYDRA had taken over SHIELD from the inside, the status of the peacekeeping organization has been in flux. It€™s lost its power status in the MCU and seems like too important an entity to leave out of commission for the movies, going forward. If anything were to bring it back into action, it€™s an all-out war between the most powerful superheroes of Earth. There needs to be regulation and oversight and while Thunderbolt Ross is a good representative for those government ideals, but that role should ultimately belong to SHIELD. Of course, with everything that€™s gone on, the organization is no doubt in need of a shakeup. One popular theory, which echoes what happened in the comic, would be to end the film with Tony Stark assuming the role of director. No matter how it would be done or who would be put in charge, SHIELD should come back into play and Captain America seems like the most organic place for that organizational rebirth to happen.
