Marvel has released some incredible new character posters for Captain America: The Winter Soldier, featuring Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson and Samuel L. Jackson.

In the latest look at Captain America’s sequel we see Chris Evans with and without his Cap helmet, along with Scarlett Johansson and Samuel L. Jackson. Click on the character posters below to view them in HD:

The first few posters were somewhat simple, but these definitely pop. We would like to see Anthony Mackie with his set of wings on and Sebastian Stan as The Winter Soldier himself though, which may land online later today or tomorrow in anticipation of the new TV spot that will be aired during this Sunday’s Super Bowl.

In related news, Captain America 3 was recently confirmed to be in pre-production, with The Winter Soldier directors Anthony and Joe Russo signing on to direct the third film with Chris Evans in the lead role of Steve Rodgers.

No word on the writer or release date for Captain America 3, but sources report that Anthony and Joe Russo are already focusing on the third film’s story arc. Marvel President Kevin Feige is normally reluctant to sign directors for Marvel’s sequels prior to a film hitting theaters, but it seems he’s happy with the way the second film has turned out.

Marvel has become known for scheduling films years ahead of time and this vote of confidence will surely give the cast and crew of Captain America: The Winter Soldier some good material to reveal as they head into their promotional tour.

Captain America: The Winter Soldier will hit theaters April 4, 2014. The sequel stars Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Anthony Mackie, Robert Redford, Sebastian Stan, Frank Grillo and Samuel L. Jackson.
