In the Civil War trailer men are represented as the integral part of the film and who get most screen time as in the trailer most of it includes men running around, fighting etc. This is a common thing found in Hollywood action films and the heroines and given less screen time and when they are it doesn't always live up to how the men action sequences are. This representation reinforces the representations of men in Hollywood action film by quite a lot. Also this is more of a male based cast film but although there are two female superheroes in the film but that doesn't really balance it.

There are two female characters who have their individual time to shine but its nowhere near the length or better the male parts are which is a big stereotype and has been for quite a while which makes the female part of the audience angered from what their seeing as they would like to see a female playing a major role and not just on the sidelines as always which is unfortunate for some viewers.

In the trailer it shows that the government and police play a big part as they're trying to get all the avengers to act under their authority and no longer be able to do as they please. Also in some scenes the police are shown with some of the heroes and it also shows them surrounding captain America as if they were chasing him down. A police chase scene is reoccurring in many Hollywood films and is always in some part of a movie whether they're chasing the good or bad guy.
