I'm going to continue on my series of articles on the topic of Marvel's "Captain America: Civil War." I'll keep taking one character per article and covering my views of their possible motivations. I'll also cover theorized outcomes for the characters and the movie in general.

For this article, I'll cover none other than Steve Rogers. Captain America himself.

In the Marvel Comics Universe, Steve Rogers is the leader of the Avengers and has been America's golden boy since the 1940s. However, in "Captain America: Civil War," he seems to feel betrayed by the very government he's been serving for so many years. Also, he seems to disagree with the new regulations and restrictions. Not to mention that he also disagrees with the fact that Bucky Barnes shouldn't be held responsible for his actions as the Winter Soldier. It's no surprise that Steve follows his strong principles. That's always been who he was, even before the super soldier serum. Steve even says as much in one of the previews for "Civil War." His actions aren't a surprise, whether it's as regards Bucky Barnes or the registration and the new regulations.

Just as I said, there are many different possible motivations for his stance in this movie. It seems, from the previews, that his motives largely involve Bucky. The government seems to want to take action against Bucky because of his actions as the Winter Soldier while under the control of Hydra.

Steve clearly sees this as wrong. He doesn't believe his old friend should be held responsible for his actions while being controlled by Hydra. He wants to protect Bucky, whereas Tony seems to be on the side of the government. Though it's unclear what Tony's opinions of Bucky are, this would be one of the reasons that Tony and Steve are pitted against each other.

Another important motivation would be the registration of super heroes. It's still unclear how large of a role this will play in the movie, if any. In the comics, Steve is very much against the registration. If it plays an important part in the movie, I don't think anyone has any doubt that his position will be the same. Tony, on the other hand, is very much for the Registration Act. The other Avengers, as we know, all take sides, supporting one of the two leaders.

I won't get into Steve's reasoning for being against the Superhero Registration Act in this article, but I may address it in another article at a later date.

We still know very little about the plot of this movie, but I'm very much looking forward to seeing where the Russo Brothers take this film. I have no doubt that their work as directors, as well as the work of all the actors, will be impressive to see. May 6 can't come soon enough!
