The movie also stars Olivia Wilde and Michael Sheen. The story centers on Sam attempting to find his father, who has ...

Marvel has released these promotional teaser posters for both Thor and Captain America that will be featured at Comic-Con. They are presented in a painted style, not actual imagery from films, with the hopes of eliciting the same emotion that made the characters iconic to begin with.
