One of the biggest reasons that Marvel fans were looking forward to Captain America: Civil War was the introduction of new superheroes: Spider-Man and Black Panther. However, those weren't the only two new superheroes to make their debut in the third Captain America movie.

One of the biggest surprises in the film was when Paul Rudd's Ant-Man turned into Giant-Man. Ok, so maybe it wasn't actually one of the biggest surprises, because it was spoiled in TV spots and toys for the film, but it was still a cool moment nonetheless. Who can forget Robert Downey Jr.'s hilarious line after taking a gander at Giant-Man? "Ok, anybody on our side hiding any shocking and fantastic abilities they would like to disclose? I'm open to suggestions"

With Captain America: Civil War now out on Blu-ray, Marvel has released a special featurette on Giant-Man. In the featurette, Paul Rudd explains, "In a scene where there's so much going on, you need something new, something bigger and crazier to kind of put the final stamp on it and go into the rest of the movie, and that seemed like a good way to go."

Marvel's Captain America: Civil War finds Steve Rogers leading the newly-formed team of Avengers in their continued efforts to safeguard humanity, but after another incident involving the Avengers results in collateral damage, political pressure mounts to install a system of accountability, headed by a governing body to oversee and direct the team. The new status quo fractures the Avengers, resulting in two camps—one led by Steve Rogers and his desire for the Avengers to remain free to defend humanity without government interference, and the other following Tony Stark's surprising decision to support government oversight and accountability.

The film stars Chris Evans, Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson, Sebastian Stan, Anthony Mackie, Emily VanCamp, Don Cheadle, Jeremy Renner, Chadwick Boseman, Paul Bettany, Elizabeth Olsen, Paul Rudd and Frank Grillo, William Hurt and Daniel Brühl.

Directed by Anthony and Joe Russo and produced by Kevin Feige. Louis D'Esposito, Alan Fine, Victoria Alonso, Patricia Whitcher, Nate Moore and Stan Lee served as executive producers. The screenplay was written by Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely.

Marvel's Captain America: Civil War is now available on Digital HD, 3D Blu-ray, Blu-ray, DVD, Digital SD and VOD.
