New promo art from Captain America: Civil War has surfaced online, revealing Captain America and Iron Man's opposing teams of Avengers.

Mild SPOILERS here, if you'd rather not know who is on whose side ahead of time.

You can see the art in the video below:

If you don't have time for the video, the teams are:

Team Iron Man: Iron Man, Black Widow, War Machine, Vision, and Black Panther.

Team Captain America: Captain America, Falcon, the Winter Soldier, Hawkeye, Ant-Man, and Agent 13.

While these teams haven't been officially revealed by Marvel Studios yet, the concept art revealed in the video matches up with previous concept art to appear online, and the lineups match what we've been hearing from sources involved with the project. As such, we're taking this as confirmation.

There are a couple surprises here. While we knew Black Panther would be in Civil War, we didn't know that he'd be so involved with it that he would actually take a side. It was entirely possible that T'Challa would be an independent third party, representing Wakanda, but it seems that's not the case.

Also, Agent 13, a.k.a. Sharon Carter, was known to be appearing in the film, but we didn't know that she was getting promoted to one of Cap's Avengers.

There are also some conspicuous absences. Scarlet Witch joined up with the Avengers at the end of Age of Ultron, but she's nowhere to be seen in the concept art. Perhaps she's being held as a prisoner, if rumors of her involvement in the inciting international incident of the war are true, or perhaps she benched herself out of guilt or fear.

Lastly, Spider-Man is absent. As a teenager, we expect his decision to become involved in the Civil War to be a major character moment in the film, so it make sense that he's not included with either initial roster.
