'Captain America: Civil War' Stars Visit 'GMA'
Chadwick and Sebastian on why Black Panther and Winter Soldier are at odds.
— -- It’s superhero versus superhero in the new blockbuster “Captain America: Civil War.”
The stars behind two of its larger-than-life characters, Chadwick Boseman and Sebastian Stan, visited “Good Morning America” today to tell us about the highly-anticipated movie, which opens in North America this Friday.
“This movie deals with the responsibility of power and there’s two sides with two different ideologies or ideas about that and you’re on two different sides,” Boseman explained, referring to why the superheros are battling each other.
“It’s controversial because you understand why everyone’s doing what they’re doing, so there’s no real right or wrong,” Stan added.
This is the first film to feature Boseman’s character as the Black Panther, who Stan joked was “too angry.”
“He has reason to be because of the issues at hand, the reasons why we’re arguing are personal for him and personal to his country,” said Boseman.
The actors were also surprised with questions from current drama students.
Boseman’s advice for the aspiring actors at The Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture in Harlem, New York: do it “because you love it,” he told them. “Don’t do it for fame or fortune. Be business-minded but make sure you enjoy doing it because it’s a hard road.”
