I love these guys, they adapted my favorite character(Cap) on screen perfectly. I remember people use to talk trash about how Cap was lame and by the time of the Avengers they said that he was forgettable compared to how much people loved Iron Man, Thor, and Hulk. Them doing WS showed all of the doubters how great the character really is, and I appreciate them for it. Keep doing the great work, can't wait to see what they do for Infinity War.
They probably wanted to give it a update since the first costume had mix of military and his iconic costume, but they just ended making it look weird without the blend.
I'm gonna build a shrine to the Russo Bros someday for Winter Soldier & Civil War, and will build at least a very elaborate altar for Marcus and McFeely too. Thank you for loving and understanding Cap and Bucky the way you do, and for writing the most awesome black superheroes I've ever seen.
+redcrest5 Oh really? That's why they said that Bucky needed to be punished and put on ice. Bucky's character progression 0% back where he was. Not to mention when Steve/Bucky relationship was supposed to be center stage. They hardly talk., nver adressed Bucky's problems and guilt that comes with it.
Amazing interview. Schnepp is a great interviewer and his questions were really captivating and thorough. It wasn't some random trivial interview. You can actually learn a lot listening to it. Fantastic job. I'm waiting for more!
I really appreciate this interview. This entire time I've been interested in seeing and hearing about the guys who wrote, what is essentially, imo, one of the best film trilogies of all time and definitely what is the best comicbook trilogy of all time. Its so interesting to know how loosey-goosey everything seems at the writers table. They talk as though they didn't know, from the very beginning, that they'd be going in this direction (Bucky getting murked in Cap 1 > Bucky coming back in Cap 2 > Bucky killed Tony's parents and Tony finding out Cap 3). I always imagined Marvel had a concrete plan as to where they were going from the very beginning. Its nice to know the creative process is so fluid there. Thanks for the interview Schnepp and I thank Markus and McFeely for their presence and the discussion.
Damn, Collider is really killing it with these interviews. Always wanted to hear them talk about how they approach the writing in the films. Nicely done Collider!
These writers are unbelievable in the depth, work and amazing care they've given the characters; not just the major hitters but the minor characters. The Russo Bros and them make such an effort to make sure eddy character has an arc, a stake and something to gain, lose or fight for. And it's nothing short of incredible as it's so easy to have lazy writing, but these guys don't stop until they reach 1000%. You can see it in the care they talk about the film and it makes me so happy every time :) Also, I wanted to say, I still think Zemo is one of my fave MCU villains, and I hope we see him again ❤ Thank You so much for everything guys, here's to Thanos...
Awwww man.....schnepp....just going back watching interviews waiting outside for the theater to open to watch ENDGAME for the 6th time this week and I'm glad I came to this interview and saw schnepp. RIP the sweaties continue
Recently i played an Russo's interview out curiosity but kept watching those interviews out of enjoyment and genuine realization that those guys (Markus and McFeely included) are amazing movie makers with honest desire to bring great movies to fandom. Kudos to you Collider for making those interviews!
The Bottom is his best story, but it might be confusing to a first time reader. His original 1980 series is the best place to start, followed by the 2004 series. Good luck!
I love these guys. Really hoping after Infinity Wars, their next project is one last Captain America movie which concludes the Captain America character and finally we see Steve being truly happy.
Great interview! Jon Schnep is awesome at interviewing! I've actually shook Jon's hand at a convention and I could have talked to him all day, but he seemed extremely tired.
This was a cool interview. I I like hearing about the different aspects of making a movie. I also got excited when there was a little slip at the mention of Benedict for the scheduling part. Pretty sure it's not a big surprise he is going to be in the Infinity War movies but it was awesome to hear this semi confirmation.
This was such a great interview!!! Loved it and thank you for asking such great questions! They seemed really down to Earth :) I can't wait to see what else they are able to write!
What a great interview! Thank you Schnepp 🤓 I'm so glad the writers mentioned how Steve Rogers is self-involved (selfish) and making personal decisions - he's no longer all goody two shoes. I'm mad at Cap for how he treated Tony in this movie 😰😨😁
Great interview, but I laughed when you pumped up the villain even though everyone at CV called him "1-Dimensional". lol. That being said, I'd do the same thing if I had the writers staring at me. haha
+Darren On-Air & VO To be fair, Schnepp was the one dissenting voice in that argument. His opinions here were pretty much the same as in the spoiler reviews. I also found Zemo's role quite interesting.
Giovanni Bermudez I also enjoyed Zemo in the movie. His arc made sense with the bigger picture and was a perfect catalyst for the main fight, but I was mainly referring to their comments from reviews. Not mad, just found it humorous. haha.
+Darren On-Air & VO I have a feeling a quiet villian like Zemo works better the 4th or 5th time you see a movie. I think because there's so much happening in this film already, a plan like his gets overshadowed really fast, especially in the cinema. What do you think?
Asi Kla I completely agree. Zemo's role was solely for driving the plot forward, but if they would have taken out all of his scenes and had Tony discover the BIG REVEAL at the end on his own? Wouldn't have missed him at all. I get why they used him, but the "Villain" for this movie was TeamCap/TeamIronMan and that overshadowed Zemo throughout. He had a terrific performance, but I didn't see him as a threat as much as a burden. Again, he was good in the movie, but not necessary.
Shnepp is still vastly missed now in 2021. I would have loved to see what Shnepp’s take on what has happened with the MCU (Infinity War, Endgame, WandaVision, Spidey movies), The Joker, WW, Shazam, The Boys, Umbrella Academy, etc.
" Steve and Natasha watched that video in Winter Soldier and know categorically that Hydra killed them, never tolled Tony.So when Tony asks them Rogers, did you know and he says yes it's maybe the worst thing he's ever done.. so we cuts to where he kind didn't answer.. " so this ends a debate was Steve lying to Tony that he didn't know that it was Bucky that killed his parents... Ultimate betrayal !
***SPOILER*** I want to hear them talk about why have the letter at the end from Cap to Tony. That was the only part of the movie that kind of bothered me since it felt like it patched things up a little too much.
I wouldn't say it patched things, but it shows how Cap doesn't give up on his friends, even in conflict. They're not completely cool with each other at the end, but they still have respect for one another
It's too bad we won't get silver surfer for infinity war since he was part of it in the comics. At least we can get adam warlock since he was a very important player during infinity gauntlet.
They just confirmed Doctor Strange in this interview and they confirmed Rocket and Quill in another interview. Why don't they just say everyone will be in it. Instead of the cryptic: it's a culmination of everything that has come so far, that the Russos keep saying.
man collider really loves DC and warner bros, I mean I loved all of kristian's, dennis's and schnepp's personal interviews (spoilers +non spoilers) with snyder, terrio, ben, henry, momoa, ayer, gal, roven...
+Darewin Ocampo I doubt WB would do that but I agree with what you're saying if that movie turns out good and they don't get any interviews at all then something is kinda weird . I mean they got the guys from fox (Tim Miller, deadpool writers) and so many people from marvel, but not one from DC\ Warner Bros. like are you kidding me that's obviously bs
This two guy doesn't write the whole script of the infinity war and endgame the script was written by the man who wrote the script of all-star war and the guy never got paid.
Can we discuss how Captain America intended on killing a young kid in the big fight? Yes Spider-Man has enough super strength to lift that passenger car, but Steve Rogers couldn't have known beforehand. He not only tries to crush that kid, he tries talking about where he grew up 5 secs later like he's surprised the kid survived
+Jeremy B Where could Steve have known Spider-Man was strong enough to lift that? Peter didn't demonstrate any feats of strength in front of him prior to that moment, so there's no way he could've known at that moment.
+masterrance When did Captain America see a full glimpse of Spider-Man's super strength before that moment. Peter didn't perform many fears in front of Steve beforehand that a person of regular strength couldn't perform beforehand.
+Sjono Spider-Man shot two web-strings at Cap's hands and tried to pull him back with his hands. It took all of Cap's strength to resist Spider-Man's pull on him and he still couldn't move. Since Spidey appears to be as strong, if not stronger than him, then he can assume Spidey's strong enough to hold, or at the very least, survive under a passenger car.
+Top 10s 'N' Tributes That's a big stretch to say that maneuver instantly equaled a sign of super strength. All that could've meant to Captain America was that Spider-Man's webbing was strong, not Spider-Man himself. After all the webbing was strong enough to support Peter swinging all over the place. It's one thing to say "that this kid's webbing is strong enough to hold me back" to then say "he's clearly strong enough to hold a passenger container."
+Carlos Callejo Well, the eye of Agamoto is probably going to be another infinity stone, and Thanos is going to assemble them all, so not that much of a spoiler, is it?
Nathan Holstrom honestly, at this point, I think I'd be more surprised to hear that some of the primary and secondary characters in the MCU wouldn't be in Infinity War
+Abhi Rao I know.... horrible? You're killing me guys, but damn you wrote some good screenplays so I can forgive. :) At least you DID the research, and it showed!!!
+Town .City This new one. I liked the first better i guess but this one looks more like it was trying to look like an actual ant head instead of being more practical. The extended snout and the pointy antenna ears is my example. Maybe if they gave it more red to be more flush with the rest of the suit then i'd like it more but it just looks out of place and wack.
The real heroes of the MCU! So glad you got this interview Schnepp.
The script for this amazing film is severely underrated.
I love these guys, they adapted my favorite character(Cap) on screen perfectly. I remember people use to talk trash about how Cap was lame and by the time of the Avengers they said that he was forgettable compared to how much people loved Iron Man, Thor, and Hulk. Them doing WS showed all of the doubters how great the character really is, and I appreciate them for it. Keep doing the great work, can't wait to see what they do for Infinity War.
+Levis Hogea yea I dont know what they were thinking with that costume lol
They probably wanted to give it a update since the first costume had mix of military and his iconic costume, but they just ended making it look weird without the blend.
Yeah, that was a cool scene.
+Levis Hogea that sounds pretty cool, I like that idea
I'm gonna build a shrine to the Russo Bros someday for Winter Soldier & Civil War, and will build at least a very elaborate altar for Marcus and McFeely too. Thank you for loving and understanding Cap and Bucky the way you do, and for writing the most awesome black superheroes I've ever seen.
+redcrest5 Oh really? That's why they said that Bucky needed to be punished and put on ice. Bucky's character progression 0% back where he was. Not to mention when Steve/Bucky relationship was supposed to be center stage. They hardly talk., nver adressed Bucky's problems and guilt that comes with it.
These guys wrote some great dialogue in this film! Can't wait to see what they do with Infinity War as well.
The real heroes here (;
I'm so excited to see what they have in store for us with the next Avengers movies
Feige is officially the best person on the planet.
Look how he told the writers that they got Spider-Man!!!!
God bless him.
Collider is killing it with these civil war interviews
I can't even imagine how much they have on their plate right now. Just being in a room with all the directors and writers would blow my mind!
Who else agrees that the Captain America trilogy is the best super hero trilogy we've gotten thus far?
qarahiyo No.
qarahiyo If you say TDK trilogy was better then please explain.
Lmao
Dark knight
This two guys deserve the dollarsign.

Nicely done Collider!
the greatest thing about the movie is the script.
* Airport Battle
These dudes are awesome. Them together with the Russo's are like the Four Horsemen of Marvel Studios.
Not sure which one would be Ric Flair though.
These writers are unbelievable in the depth, work and amazing care they've given the characters; not just the major hitters but the minor characters. The Russo Bros and them make such an effort to make sure eddy character has an arc, a stake and something to gain, lose or fight for.

THANK YOU COLLIDER for all these interviews on CW
It's so awesome to have an interview of the writers of this incredible movie. Great Interview! More please
Recently i played an Russo's interview out curiosity but kept watching those interviews out of enjoyment and genuine realization that those guys (Markus and McFeely included) are amazing movie makers with honest desire to bring great movies to fandom.
Kudos to you Collider for making those interviews!
They need to write a Moon Knight script.
The Bottom is his best story, but it might be confusing to a first time reader. His original 1980 series is the best place to start, followed by the 2004 series. Good luck!
+Allan Alberts basically the batman of marvel lol.
I love these guys. Really hoping after Infinity Wars, their next project is one last Captain America movie which concludes the Captain America character and finally we see Steve being truly happy.
kevin feige interview next?
ask him about black widow, blade, inhumans and if netflix characters are showing up anytime soon?
Great Interview
Awesome guys! If you guys can get more interviews like this, please do! I know I don't have to tell you that, but what the hell. GET THEM ALL.
Freaking awesome. :) This next couple years is going to be crazy! :) Thanks for the cool interview with these masters.
Markus and McFeely are the best writing duo for the MCU!
Thank you for interviewing them. The cast members are important for this movie to happen, but these guys and the Russo Bros are the essential.
Great interview! Jon Schnep is awesome at interviewing! I've actually shook Jon's hand at a convention and I could have talked to him all day, but he seemed extremely tired.
This was a cool interview. I I like hearing about the different aspects of making a movie. I also got excited when there was a little slip at the mention of Benedict for the scheduling part. Pretty sure it's not a big surprise he is going to be in the Infinity War movies but it was awesome to hear this semi confirmation.
I ONLY WISH THIS WAS LONGER, all three of you are SO SWEATY. I love it. Thanks for an amazing interview, Schnepp!
I like that marvel lets their people be interviewed by collider and I appreciate schnepp's enthusiasm to interview them.
Fantastic interview. Great questions and great answers.
This was such a great interview!!! Loved it and thank you for asking such great questions! They seemed really down to Earth :) I can't wait to see what else they are able to write!
Oh man I miss him 💙💙
welcome to Disney marvel collider studios everyone
+Ethan Thomas don't you mean read?
you're upset they didn't bring in Martha to interview her? Tell WB to make a good movie.
+Eddie Brock don't worry when you're older you will understand the MARTHA scene, a scene to big for little minds,
Please appreciate these amazing heroes. They worked so hard for this movie their heads go bald
Awesome interview!!
Good interview Schnepp! I love how prepared you are, and actually ask questions the non-sweaties wouldn't even dream to!
Great interview!. I'm loving these Heroes specials
What an awesome interview!!!
Great interview Schnepp!
great segment..great interview..thank you :D
What a great interview! Thank you Schnepp 🤓 I'm so glad the writers mentioned how Steve Rogers is self-involved (selfish) and making personal decisions - he's no longer all goody two shoes. I'm mad at Cap for how he treated Tony in this movie 😰😨😁
sweet christmas this video rocked
Well, I had no idea Jason Statham co-wrote the Captain America movies!
yay more these 2 and the directors!
Amazing, haven't seen these dudes interviewed before.
fantastic interview
18:53 Doctor Strange confirmed for Infinity War
not really, marvel pretty much shoots everything in Atlanta but I'm sure He'll be in it.
+Pizzanigs Yep. A lil slip. But no big surprise here
+AfterEffectsZone Not a slip at all. It's been said many times that everyone will be in Infinity War.
Honestly, at this point, I'd be surprised to hear if some primary or secondary character wasn't going to be in Infinity War.
Really cool interview!
Great interview!! Tons of cool new details about the MCU
And they pretty much confirmed that Iron Man 2 was rushed lol
thanks to that idiot Ike Perlmutter. glad his ass is outta the picture.
DOCTOR STRANGE IS CONFIRMED YESSS
nice intervew !
Great interview, but I laughed when you pumped up the villain even though everyone at CV called him "1-Dimensional". lol. That being said, I'd do the same thing if I had the writers staring at me. haha

mcfeely really brought the feels to the movie
best interview ever.
Schnapps shirt is off the charts badass
Watching this after Endgame is very interesting but also sad because the big sweaty himself, Schnepp passed on before he got to see it :(
These guys are Awesome !! Just freakin' Awesome !!
RIP Jon Schnepp ...
Can somebody at Warner Brothers hire these 2 guys to write a Booster Gold trilogy for the DCEU. With a different Blue Beetle for each movie.
real nice John
Rock it, Schnepp!
" Steve and Natasha watched that video in Winter Soldier and know categorically that Hydra killed them, never tolled Tony.So when Tony asks them Rogers, did you know and he says yes it's maybe the worst thing he's ever done.. so we cuts to where he kind didn't answer..

***SPOILER*** I want to hear them talk about why have the letter at the end from Cap to Tony. That was the only part of the movie that kind of bothered me since it felt like it patched things up a little too much.
why? by the look of tonys face he hasnt forgive him and i dont think he will
I wouldn't say it patched things, but it shows how Cap doesn't give up on his friends, even in conflict. They're not completely cool with each other at the end, but they still have respect for one another
I hope Marvel makes that Namor film these guys want to write. I just want to see the battle of the kings with Black Panther, Namor and Black Bolt ;)
yes
Phase 5 maybe
+pollenontheshoot or phase 10 maybe xd
+ItsMichaelReid Unfortunately I think Namor is part of the Fantastic Four license Fox has.
Scrimbles Scrambles!
It's too bad we won't get silver surfer for infinity war since he was part of it in the comics. At least we can get adam warlock since he was a very important player during infinity gauntlet.
If they announce the name of the third avengers and its Avengers: Thanos Quest, I will lose my shit
Can we get more Sam Rockwell/Justin Hammer in the MCU, please?
Gettin sweaty as shit in here!
They just confirmed Doctor Strange in this interview and they confirmed Rocket and Quill in another interview. Why don't they just say everyone will be in it. Instead of the cryptic: it's a culmination of everything that has come so far, that the Russos keep saying.
You can see why these guys are writers
You guys gotta stop putting tiny text in your thumbnails.
YEAAA... THE SORCERER SUPREME IN INFINITY WAR =))
Stilt-Man for phase 5 !
I'm Johnny Five.
Even the screenwriters don't think the introduction of Spider-Man was great. Interesting.
well...guess they had just confirmed doc strange being in the infinity movies.
man collider really loves DC and warner bros, I mean I loved all of kristian's, dennis's and schnepp's personal interviews (spoilers +non spoilers) with snyder, terrio, ben, henry, momoa, ayer, gal, roven...
Lol sorry had to say it
+Darewin Ocampo fair point but I mean directors like Michael bay get interviewed all the time
+Darewin Ocampo I doubt WB would do that but I agree with what you're saying if that movie turns out good and they don't get any interviews at all then something is kinda weird . I mean they got the guys from fox (Tim Miller, deadpool writers) and so many people from marvel, but not one from DC\ Warner Bros. like are you kidding me that's obviously bs
Ha! I thought Schnepp wasn't a fan of Zemo...seems like he is now
+S.J.G 96 no Schnepp said that he loved Zemo on both spoiler reveiw
QUEENS GET THE SPIDEY
They look like typical MCU villains
This two guy doesn't write the whole script of the infinity war and endgame the script was written by the man who wrote the script of all-star war and the guy never got paid.
So dr Strange is comfirm for Infinity war

Impossible man beats Thanos!
did they just confirm Dr Strange is in both Infinity War films?🤓
Hello
Did Marvel fire these Guys, where Were they for *Phase Four?*
The unsung heroes... seriously does anyone know who these guys are?
At the very end, the guy spoiled that Doctor Strange is going to be in Infinity Wars.
Yeah, what a shocker...
+Carlos Callejo Well, the eye of Agamoto is probably going to be another infinity stone, and Thanos is going to assemble them all, so not that much of a spoiler, is it?
+Carlos Callejo did anybody doubt that though?
Nathan Holstrom honestly, at this point, I think I'd be more surprised to hear that some of the primary and secondary characters in the MCU wouldn't be in Infinity War
Horrible? Those Black and White Essentials are great!
+Abhi Rao
I know.... horrible? You're killing me guys, but damn you wrote some good screenplays so I can forgive. :) At least you DID the research, and it showed!!!
Does anyone actually like Ant Mans helmet? It's horrible and doesn't fit his suit or body at all.
+Ryan Gulliver i love it, it could be better but that can be said about anything!
+Town .City This new one. I liked the first better i guess but this one looks more like it was trying to look like an actual ant head instead of being more practical. The extended snout and the pointy antenna ears is my example. Maybe if they gave it more red to be more flush with the rest of the suit then i'd like it more but it just looks out of place and wack.
these guys write some good movies, but they sure are dry. haha. interesting interview tho
Word. That's talent. Kudos to these brilliant fellas
Last
Not for long!
