_Captain America: The Winter Soldier_ isn’t even out yet but just in case a third film didn’t feel inevitable enough [Variety is reporting that the Russo’s will be back to direct a third instalment](http://variety.com/2014/film/news/anthony-joe-russo-captain-america-3-1201073078/). When it’s green lit. Which of course neither they nor Marvel have any comment about.

Still none of this should be surprising. In fact I was kind of expecting the news after Cap 2’s first weekend to go something along the lines of “Cap 2 makes all the money, Cap 3 official green lit” or something to that effect.

Cap 2 is out on April 4th so we’ll see if all the fuss is worth it then but I, for one, hope it is.
