Gwyneth Paltrow’s Pepper Potts confirmed for Captain America: Civil War

February 22, 2016 by Gary Collinson

She may have sat out Avengers: Age of Ultron, but Empire has revealed that Gwyneth Paltrow’s Pepper Potts is set to feature in Captain America: Civil War, having took part in reshoots for the hotly-anticipated superhero blockbuster.

Captain America: Civil War has a big presence in the latest issue of Empire; the magazine has already revealed details about Martin Freeman’s character, as well as dropping a new batch of images. Be sure to pick up the issue this week.

Marvel’s “Captain America: Civil War” finds Steve Rogers leading the newly formed team of Avengers in their continued efforts to safeguard humanity. But after another incident involving the Avengers results in collateral damage, political pressure mounts to install a system of accountability, headed by a governing body to oversee and direct the team. The new status quo fractures the Avengers, resulting in two camps—one led by Steve Rogers and his desire for the Avengers to remain free to defend humanity without government interference, and the other following Tony Stark’s surprising decision to support government oversight and accountability.
