Just saw a short teaser trailer for Captain America. Starts out with old World War II footage zooming out to the iconic shield. "Next summer meet the world's first Avenger." A close-up shot of his face then a quick shot of him throwing his shield towards the camera. Not much footage, but it looked awesome. (Twitter)

Saw a very rough scene of Weaving as Red Skull (before being the villain, just a regular Nazi) going into a tomb to get some weird device. Blue light shines in his face and he looks at something not meant for human eyes. (Twitter)

Comic-Con 2010 Marvel Panel 'Red Skull' Clip

The footage begins with a title card saying, "Norway, May 1942."

The scene opens with two men inside what looks like a ancient tomb, and they seem petrified as the wall in front of them starts shaking and then crashing down as a bulldozer plows through it, piling rocks on top of the younger man. The older man starts taking some of the rocks off his downed companion when a bunch of German soldiers march into the room and throw the old man aside.

"Remove the lid," one of them commands, and they go to a tomb of what looks like a Scandinavian Viking warrior, and four of the soldiers push open the lid as Hugo Weaving walks in as Johann Schmidt, wearing full Nazi officer attire, and he starts talking in his German accent?sounding a bit like Christoph Waltz in fact. "It has taken me a long time to find this place. I should be commended. I gave you nothing."

"Get him up," he tells the soldiers referring to the old man, who he tells. "I think that what others see as superstition, you and I know to be a science."

"What you seek is just a legend," the old man tells him.

"Then why make such an effort to conceal it?" Weaving asks, as he walks over to the tomb and looks into what could very well be one of the Norse Gods (tying the movie into Thor) and he reaches into pick up a large glass cube that is sitting on the dead body's chest. Could it be The Cosmic Cube? (The crowd oohed and ahed as they saw what was in the tomb.)

He says something about "the jewel of Odins' treasure room" as he picks it up, but then he drops the cube onto the ground d it smashes to pieces. "It's not something someone buries, but I think it is close, yes." he continues as he walks over to one of the walls where there's a raised etching of a large tree.

"So?" he says as he starts reaching around the base of the wall. "Yggdrasil, the Tree of the World, guardian of wisdom, and fate also." He pushes a raised section at the base and pulls out a piece of the wall and he opens up what's inside and a glow pours out of the item lighting up his entire face.

"You've never seen this, have you?" he says to the old man.

"It's not for the eyes of ordinary men," the old man trembles in response.

"Exactly," smiles Schmidt as his face is bathed in light and the scene ends.

Director Joe Johnston made an appearance on the floor of the San Diego Comic-Con yesterday to sign teaser posters for Captain America: The First Avenger and I managed to slip in a few questions about the movie. Read on...

Brent Sprecher: How's filming coming along?

Joe Johnston: Ah, we just started, but it's going great.

Brent Sprecher: Awesome. Was it hard to get away to come over here to do [the Con]?

Joe Johnston: Well, you know, they gave the crew a four-day weekend...everybody else gets four days off and we only get one.

Brent Sprecher: Are we going to get to see The Invaders?

Joe Johnston: Oh, yeah!

Brent Sprecher: Namor. Is he going to have little wings on his feet?

Joe Johnston: Ah, no.

Brent Sprecher: I'm really happy you're doing this movie.

Joe Johnston: Thank you. Thanks a lot.

Briefly: This is a pretty small tidbit, but I know that after positive word came out from the Captain America presentation at Comic Con there are a lot of people hungry for every little detail about the movie. So have a logo for the villainous organization HYDRA. In Marvel comics continuity, the cabal is the enemy of SHIELD, the organization headed by Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson).

At Comic Con, Captain America director Joe Johnston mentioned that Hugo Weaving?s character The Red Skull is working with HYDRA as well as with the Nazis, which fits in with the established Marvel Universe history. And during an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Johnston displayed his phone, which is adorned with the HYDRA logo. (I don?t have a link for the EW interview; this info comes by way of CBM.) The logo looks almost exactly like the one from the comics, but my understanding is that this one is specific to the film. Read more about HYRDA, and theorize about how it and offshoot AIM might fit into future Marvel movies. (Because you know that is happening.)

Honestly I couldn't imagine a worse hell if you're not a geek. Especially if you're an actor.

For those who dont want to wait till 2011.

They already have a Captain America film during the WW2 time line it was made in the 90s.

Wasn't to bad of a film either.

Relax, it has to be extremely stressful for him having just done all that shooting and going straight to Comic-Con. Plus it's not like he was being a jerk to fans or anything.

Iron Man 2 is one of the most highly anticipated home releases of the year. Dozens of extra features and extended scenes guarantee that every fan will want to get their hands on it once available in stores. If the already revealed extras aren't enough to pique your interest, this may do the trick: The Thor movie compilation and Captain America teaser trailer will both be included in the sequel's 2-disc Special Edition Blu-Ray.

Unfortunately, they won't be easy to find. The features will be "hidden" in a special S.H.I.E.L.D. Data Vault (an obvious nod to the infamous S.H.I.E.L.D. prison of the same name). I have it on good authority that the Thor footage included on the Blu-Ray disc will be finalized with full effects and CG. There is some bad news, though; the Captain America teaser may not reveal Chris Evans in his movie costume. Since these features have to be added to the disc docket before it's ready for mass production, a decision of how much will be revealed has to be made within the next few days.

No confirmation whether these features will also be included on the DVD release or other, limited edition releases. The Iron Man 2 Blu-Ray hits shelves September 2010.

The first day we were on set we were filming a scene set in Nazi occupied Italy, where a group of POWs are marched back into camp by Captain America, and a few other guys. One of the guys was played by Neal McDonough, from Desperate Housewives, and there were a couple more. One Japanese guy and one other. Everyone was in normal military uniform, and Chris Evans was wearing military trousers, and a leather jacket, with the Captain America top underneath.

The whole day we filmed different views of the troops marching in. As we were marching, we walked past tanks and trucks with a logo with a skull and octopus legs on it.

At the end of the day, we shot a scene where we all crowded around Chris Evans. Hayley Atwell, in a nurse?s outfit came over and spoke very quietly to him. I asked, but no one heard what she said. After that, Tommy Lee Jones came over, said ?Faith, huh!? and walked off.

The second day we filmed the USO show, around the stage in your video. It was pretty boring, but we did get to see Chris Evans in the Captain America costume.

They?ve gone for a 1940s style, with a padded top, little blue shorts, blue leggings and red boots.

In addition to the set image posted earlier today revealing numerous extras dressed in 40's attire, AceShowbiz has revealed even more images from Marvel's much anticipated Captain America: The First Avenger. And though Steve Rogers (Chris Evans) was not seen for the scene, the director Joe Johnston was spotted on the location.

As mentioned before, the scene is set during Victory in Europe Day. And the set images below show extras waving U.K.'s flags, sharing smiles and hugs as they reenacted the situation when the WWII Allies formally accepted the surrender of the armed forces of Nazi Germany in 1945.
