Among them: That "The First Avenger: Captain America" will be set during World War II, but he also said that Matthew McConaughey is not signed to play Steve Rogers. Feige confirmed that the star-shaped object in Tony Stark's workshop in "Iron Man" is indeed part of the famous shield, and that Cap's film would help set up the "The Avengers," (2011) following six weeks later. Feige also spoke about "Thor" saying: "The film is not all Asgard, but it will be a big chunk in Asgard, yeah. There will be an announcement about a director later this summer." Mark Protosevich is writing the script, which Fiege said should submitted in a couple of weeks.
