Chapter 1

Let's start with the symbol. Captain America's shield. In the movies,

it's indestructible, made of pure Vibranium. But in reality? The film crew created over 40 different

versions of the shield! There was the "hero prop" – beautiful, heavy,

made of aluminum, used for close-ups. But Chris Evans wasn't running around with that all day.

For fight scenes, they used lightweight rubber or foam versions so nobody lost any teeth.

And the best part? In many of the throwing scenes, the shield was 100% digital!

The actor was throwing... nothing. The magic of cinema means that the hardest metal in the MCU

is sometimes just a collection of perfectly arranged pixels.
