Writers hired for Captain America: The First Avenger sequel

Meet the new writers, same as the old writers.  Marvel isn't wasting any time getting the ball rolling on a sequel to Captain America: The First Avenger. Why wait for the July 22nd release date to see if it...I dunno, makes money or something. That's a potential drawback to this whole Marvel cinematic universe. They can't really abandon any part of it because key elements to the entire world are within each flick.

But I'm veering off into a subject for another day and away from the point, which is that Marvel has brought back Stephen McFeely and Christopher Markus to pen the next adventures of Captain America. The only question is when that adventure would take place. Cap will be appearing in The Avengers, which necessitates him being frozen so he can emerge in the modern day. Would a Cap sequel be a flashback story again set in WWII? Part of me wishes we didn't already know how the movie ends, because a cool idea would've been to show Captain America fighting wars over the course of decades, but that's not gonna happen.

Thanks to LatinoReview for info on this story.
