Captain America: Brave New World is about to hit theaters tomorrow, and it’s shaping up to be one of the most anticipated movies of the year. Fans are especially excited to see Anthony Mackie step into the iconic Captain America role, taking over from Chris Evans’ portrayal of Steve Rogers. Before heading out to the theater, here’s everything you need to know about the movie directed by Julius Onah.
This film marks the fourth installment in the Captain America series, with Mackie’s Sam Wilson officially picking up the famous shield that once belonged to Steve Rogers. In the movie, Sam will face off against Red Hulk, a villain played by none other than Harrison Ford. Ford will also take on the role of President Thaddeus Ross, adding even more star power to the film.
Now that Mackie is stepping up as Captain America, many fans are curious about who will take over as the new Falcon. Well, wonder no more! The role of Sam Wilson’s new wingman, Joaquin Torres, will be played by Danny Ramirez. Fans can look forward to seeing Torres join forces with Sam as his sidekick, continuing the legacy of the Falcon.
In addition to Red Hulk, another villain is causing trouble—Sidewinder, the leader of the Serpent Society. While we don’t know much about this character yet, the filmmakers have teased that audiences will be impressed by his role and his evil plans, including an attempt to assassinate the president.
As a direct sequel to The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, fans are also wondering about the return of Bucky Barnes, especially since there has been no official word yet on who will take over as the new Winter Soldier. With fans eagerly hoping for his return, it’ll be interesting to see how Bucky fits into this new chapter of the Captain America saga.
The plot of the movie revolves around Sam Wilson becoming entangled in a global crisis after a meeting with President Ross. He must race against time to uncover the true mastermind behind an international conspiracy before things spiral out of control.
