Captain America: Brave New World (2025)

[CyberpunkCentral]

No castings for the project are officially known, but Friday’s episode offers plenty of roads for the feature to take. Up until this point, Chris Evans has played Captain America via the Steve Rogers character, appearing in a trio of solo movies, Avengers outings, and assorted other Marvel films. And the question of who is entitled to carry the shield or be Captain America was central to the show.

The feature is likely to continue the story of Sam Wilson, played by Anthony Mackie, and the current wielder of the shield. But as the writers get to work, it will be interesting to see how the story unfolds with there now being multiple people who have been Captain Americas in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

No director is attached, and Evans’ involvement/return remains unconfirmed. Marvel was tight-lipped as usual.

Falcon and the Winter Soldier, which also stars Sebastian Stan as Bucky Barnes/the Winter Soldier, has earned strong critical and fan reaction. Spellman assembled a nearly all-Black writers room for the series, which has been praised for bringing the Black experience to the forefront quite unlike any other superhero film or TV show before it. The series has tackled issues from discriminatory lending practices to the original sin of America building itself on the backs of Black people.

The series premiered March 19 to what Disney+ said was its biggest series debut audience ever, topping popular shows such as Marvel's WandaVision and Lucasfilm's The Mandalorian.

Evans toplined three previous Captain America films, including Captain America: The First Avenger (2011), Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014) and Captain America: Civil War (2016), and retired the role with Avengers: Endgame. When events pick up in Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Wilson opts to forgo the title of Captain America so the government gives the role to John Walker (Wyatt Russell), a white member of the military.

Spellman was previously a writer/co-executive producer on Fox's Empire and also acted as a consulting producer on crime drama Truth Be Told before getting the chance to take the lead on Falcon. He is repped by CAA and Industry Entertainment.

Rising scribe Musson was the credited writer of what is considered among the strongest of the show's installments: the fifth episode, entitled "Truth." His previous credit was on Iron Sky: The Coming Race, an action-thriller centered on Nazis on the moon. He is repped by Verve and Industry.

I'm game. I think the show was a great way to flesh out the story between the big screen appearances. I fully expected them to just have him show up in the costume and be the new Captain America, without showing any of the development (*cough* Hulk *cough*).

Hopefully, they take another stab at the costume which I thought was gaudy, loud and baggy. To be fair, the Captain America suit looks awful in Avengers and then looks amazing in Winter Solder.

I'm surprised this thread doesn't have more posts. This is hugely exciting news for me. I enjoyed The Falcon And The Winter Soldier a lot and can't wait to see more of Sam Wilson as the new Captain America.

Doesn't it? We didn't know that The Falcon And The Winter Soldier had any kind of follow-up prior to this point.

At least he doesn't have a cape.

Did you even watch the show? They are useful. Plus he's flying through the air, so goggles are helpful.

I think the costume looks great. Love it along with Wanda's new look too.

[hagios]

I’ll definitely miss Chris Evans as CA

Same here. I think it looks pretty badass, and very accurate to the comics.

[MattJ1991]

I think the costumes too busy and baggy looking, but I'm confident they can tweak it a little to make it better for the film. Also, it looks like this:

Each to their own. I don't think it needs tweaking personally. I actually prefer it to any of Steve Rodgers' Captain America costumes.

I have no issues with the new costume either but nothing tops this one.

Gotta have googles when flying fast,eyes water and hard to see. However I didn't like the design of the costume. Half hood / mask and it had too much white. Fun show though.

oops guess I didn't read all the replies.

Falcon was just Iron Man with wings, no?

Yep. Secret Avengers suit Cap. That was one of the best suits ever given to him in the comics. Welcomed change for that period.
