"Captain America: Civil War" won't be hitting theaters until May 6 next year, but shooting on the much anticipated flick has been planned to be kicked off on April 1. According to Collider, a casting call for extras in the Atlanta area has begun. It is looking for "many ethnicities" with the casting notices enlisting the start date of the production.

In addition to the shooting date, synopsis for the superhero action fantasy feature film has been unearthed.

"Captain America: Civil War" will be having "Captain America: The Winter Soldier" helmers Anthony Russo and Joe Russo returning as directors. The cast ensemble consist of Chris Evans as Steve Rogers, Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow, Anthony Mackie as Falcon, and Jeremy Renner as Hawkeye. In the meantime, actor Daniel Bruhl has been rumored to be playing Baron Zemo.
