Last week we got to see some very cool, very interesting new photos of Chris Evans on the UK set of his new film Captain America: The First Avenger and today we get to check out another new photo from the set. Apparently, filming production has moved to Liverpool, England … and it now involves the use of a very cool-looking submarine ship:

he First Avenger: Captain America, directed by Joe Johnston, is due for release in the UK in July 2011. Captain America was first thought up to help encourage patriotic feeling during World War II. The big-budget film will tell the origin of Captain America, one of Marvel’s most iconic superhero comic book characters. The story will follow a young soldier called Steve Rogers, who volunteers to undergo a series of experiments and becomes Captain America. Since it was first released, Marvel has sold more than 200 million copies of Captain America magazine in 75 countries.

I love how technology and vehicles used in comic book movies set in the past have a future-retro look. This submarine is clearly meant to look “old” but it looks somehow futuristic. The same can be said about how Gotham City looks in the Batman films. The Art Deco meets the Future look seems to be a very cool signature of big screen adaptations of comic books. This toy looks very cool, I can’t wait to see it in action.
