Marvel Studios has recently announced a title change for the highly anticipated fourth installment of the “Captain America” movie franchise. Previously titled “Captain America: New World Order,” the film will now be known as “Captain America: Brave New World.” Alongside this announcement, the studio released a first-look photo from the film’s set featuring the stars Anthony Mackie and Harrison Ford.
Last July, Marvel had initially unveiled “New World Order” as the subtitle for “Captain America 4,” with a planned release date of May 3, 2024. Despite the change in title, the release date for the movie remains unaffected, and fans can still expect the film to hit theaters on schedule under its new name, “Brave New World.”
In this upcoming installment, Anthony Mackie takes on the iconic role of Captain America, marking his first appearance as the eponymous hero in a feature film. While Mackie had previously portrayed the Falcon in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, he assumed the mantle of Captain America in the Disney+ series “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier.” Chris Evans, who originated the role of Captain America in the MCU, bid farewell to the character in “Avengers: Endgame.”
Directed by Julius Onah, known for his work on films like “The Cloverfield Paradox” and “Luce,” and co-written by Malcolm Spellman, the creator of “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier,” “Captain America: Brave New World” promises an exciting continuation of the superhero’s story. Joining the cast is Harrison Ford, making his debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross, taking over the role previously played by the late William Hurt. In this installment, Ross assumes the position of President of the United States. Liv Tyler and Tim Blake Nelson are also set to reprise their roles as Betty Ross and Samuel Sterns from “The Incredible Hulk.” Additionally, the supporting cast includes Shira Haas and Danny Ramirez, known for his role in “Top Gun: Maverick.”
In a recent interview with Esquire magazine, Harrison Ford expressed his enjoyment of working on the set of “Brave New World” in Atlanta. While acknowledging the challenging and demanding schedule of filming, Ford shared his overall satisfaction with the project, emphasizing the hard work involved in bringing the film to life.
Fans eagerly anticipate “Captain America: Brave New World” and can now catch a glimpse of the film through the first set photo released by Marvel Studios.
