I’m so excited to be able to say that Marvel’s CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR is now playing in theatres everywhere! I promise that this is a movie that the whole family will love – and make sure you sit through the entire end credits!
In celebration of CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR opening, I wanted to send around an amazing video highlighting the female stars in the film includingScarlett Johansson (“Natasha Romanoff / Black Widow”), Emily VanCamp (“Sharon Carter / Agent 13”), and Elizabeth Olsen (“Wanda Maximoff / Scarlet Witch”)!
Since this will be so amazing, I’ve included a cookie recipe for you to enjoy while you watch!
