Marvel Unveils Trailer for Captain America: Brave New World
This past weekend, Marvel Studios unveiled an extensive trailer for Captain America: Brave New World during the inaugural Brazil D23 fan event. This film represents Anthony Mackie’s first full-length cinematic role as the new Captain America, following his portrayal in the 2021 Disney+ miniseries, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. The event also provided a sneak peek at Marvel’s upcoming film, Thunderbolts*, along with its own trailer.
A Glimpse into Phase Five of the MCU
This movie is set to be the fifth installment in Marvel’s Phase Five and is directed by Julius Onah, known for his work on The Cloverfield Paradox. The storyline builds upon events from both The Falcon and the Winter Soldier and 2008’s film, The Incredible Hulk. According to official sources:
After a meeting with newly inaugurated US President Thaddeus Ross—portrayed by Harrison Ford in his first appearance within this universe—Sam finds himself embroiled in an international crisis. He must unravel a sinister global conspiracy before its true architect plunges humanity into chaos.
An Impressive Cast Joins Mackie and Ford
Mackie and Ford are joined by Liv Tyler reprising her role as Betty Ross, Thaddeus Ross’s daughter, alongside Tim Blake Nelson returning as Samuel Sterns from 2008’s film. Notably, Ford steps into this role following William Hurt’s passing. Additionally, Carl Lumbly returns as Isaiah Bradley—a character introduced in F&WS—who endured decades of forced experimentation after being given the Super Soldier Serum against his will during his service in Korea. His poignant reflections on what it means to carry Captain America’s shield resonate deeply within themes of identity and representation.
Stay tuned for more updates!
