As a resident of Cleveland, you’d think I’d be tired of Captain America: The Winter Soldier by now after all the traffic headaches from filming the movie here. I’m not. Chris Evans, Sebastian Stan, Sam Jackson and Scar-Jo were all roaming the streets of CLE and that’s pretty awesome.

While we’ve seen tons of set pics thanks to a rather aggressive Cleveland Plain Dealer photog, we haven’t had a real visual representation of the film’s tone… until now. The teaser poster above, like the trailers for Iron Man 3, points toward another dark storyline for one of the Avengers. You think they would be all rainbows and sunshine after saving the planet, but no. It’s rough out there.

Still, dark Marvel isn’t nearly as somber as light DC movies, so The Winter Soldier is still bound to be a blast. The first film, after all, is my favorite standalone Marvel Phase I picture. And if Iron Man 3, the best in that series, is any indication then Captain America 2 could very well top the original.

Captain America: The Winter Soldier opens on April 4, 2014.
