“Captain America: Civil War” stars Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson and Anthony Mackie.  The crew filmed an action-packed scene in downtown Atlanta on Friday, May 15th after filming in Midtown and Buckhead earlier in the week. The project needs extras for a scene to film on Monday.

The movie also will film downtown, in the area known as “The Gulch,” in addition to Norcross. And of course it’s headquartered at the Pinewood Studios facility in Fayette County, an ever-growing campus that hosted “Ant-Man” last year.

Official Marvel synopsis:

Steve Rogers leads the new team of Avengers in their continued efforts to safeguard humanity. After another international incident involving the Avengers results in collateral damage, political pressure mounts to install a system of accountability and a governing body to determine when to enlist the services of the team. The new status quo fractures the Avengers while they try to protect the world from a new and nefarious villain.
