Ultron laments that the shield, which he calls a "<a href="/wiki/Frisbee" title="Frisbee">frisbee</a>", is an example of human foolishness given the versatility of the vibranium it is made of. During his confrontation with Ultron, Rogers loses the shield when it falls off a truck but it is retrieved by Romanoff and returns it to Rogers. The shield guards against and reflects Ultron's energy beams and pierces Ultron's shoulder when Rogers kicks it at him. He later throws the shield to Romanoff during the Battle of <a href="/wiki/Sokovia" class="mw-redirect" title="Sokovia">Sokovia</a>, and she uses it to defend herself against Ultron's sentries.</li> <li>In <i><a href="/wiki/Captain_America:_Civil_War" title="Captain America: Civil War">Captain America: Civil War</a></i> (2016), Rogers uses the shield throughout. During his fight with <a href="/wiki/Brock_Rumlow_(Marvel_Cinematic_Universe)" class="mw-redirect" title="Brock Rumlow (Marvel Cinematic Universe)">Brock Rumlow</a>, he throws the shield high into the air to protect himself and nearby civilians after an explosive device is thrown and sticks to it.

Barnes uses the shield to attack Rhodes and Stark as well. During his final confrontation with Stark, Rogers uses it to disable some of his armor's flight capability, deflect Stark's energy beams, and finally in combination with Barnes to overwhelm Stark. After he uses the shield to destroy Stark's arc reactor and disable the <a href="/wiki/Iron_Man%27s_armor_(Marvel_Cinematic_Universe)" title="Iron Man's armor (Marvel Cinematic Universe)">Iron Man armor</a>. As Rogers leaves with Bucky, Stark calls out that his father, Howard, made the shield for Rogers and that he does not deserve it. Rogers' only response is to leave the shield with Stark.</li> <li>In <i><a href="/wiki/Spider-Man:_Homecoming" title="Spider-Man: Homecoming">Spider-Man: Homecoming</a></i> (2017), video footage captured by Spider-Man during the events of the <i>Civil War</i>, depicting the title character stealing the shield from Rogers, is shown.</li> <li>In <i><a href="/wiki/Avengers:_Endgame" title="Avengers: Endgame">Avengers: Endgame</a></i> (2019), Stark returns the shield to Rogers as a gesture of reconciliation between them.
