(Marvel/Moviepilot)

Marvel is heavily publicizing two of its biggest movies of 2015 and 2016. While "The Avengers 2: Age of Ultron" hits theaters this year on May 1, "Captain America: Civil War" is set to release in 2016. There will be more superheroes in "Civil War" than "Age Of Ultron" which has added to the hype and expectation of the movie.

So far, plot details reveal that the events of "The Avengers 2" movie will lead to what happens in "Captain America". After the devastating effects of Ultron, the government decides to pass a Superhero Registration Act that deems it lawful for superheroes to register themselves. Iron Man supports the act while Captain American opposes. A war ensues between the two factions, with some superheroes taking the Captain's side while others side with Tony.

Yahoo News confirms that Black Panther will have a significant role to play in the movie, possibly taking Spiderman's place in the comics. The movie will also pave the way for the movie "Black Panther" that was announced by Marvel. As previously reported, Captain American will die, either at the hands of Tony Stark or because of him. This obviously weighs heavily in Tony's heart who is rumored to be done with being a superhero towards the end of the movie.

While there are several rumored superheroes speculated to appear in the film, what is known for sure is that Falcon, the Winter Soldier, Black Widow and Hawkeye will be there. Captain Marvel, Miss Marvel, Spiderwoman, Scarlet Witch and many others are rumored to appear, but there aren't any confirmations.

Perhaps the most exciting aspect of the movie will Black Panther. MoviePilot reports that a casting call for African men and women in ethnic wardrobe signals the fact that Wakanda, the superhero's location, will be heavily feature in the movie. The website also notes that "Civil War" might even touch upon his origin story.

"Captain America: Civil War" hits theatres in 2016.
