Starring Anthony Mackie and the MCU's new Thaddeus Ross, Harrison Ford.
Sam Wilson took over the shield of Captain Americaand he's going to have his work cut out for him. A few days before the release of Deadpool & Wolverinethe general public can finally discover the first images of Brave New World. that Kevin Feige showed three months ago at CinemaCon in Las Vegas. A dark first trailer with conspiratorial overtones, which aims to reassure fans skeptical about the transfer of power between Chris Evans and Anthony Mackie.
It starts with a meta, and rather funny, reference to Harrison Ford replacing the late William Hurt to play Thaddeus Ross (“I had to sacrifice the mustache to win the election“). The President of the United States offers the new Cap to be a member of the American army. But there is no time to think, he must foil an assassination attempt and realizes that a dark plot is in motion. And Giancarlo Esposito, whose role in the film remains mysterious, is clearly in on it.
“You're Captain America, but you're not Steve Rogers“, Harrison Ford still says to Sam Wilson/Anthony Mackie, who does not deny his identity (nor his famous wings). How in Civil Warwe will have to choose the right side.”What if it was a trap?“, worries his sidekick Joaquín Torres (Danny Ramirez) introduced in the series Falcon and the Winter Soldier.
The trailer ends with a fleeting shot – and a resounding scream – of the Red Hulk. Will he be an alter ego of Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross like in the comics? It's too early to tell. Captain America: Brave New World still has a lot to reveal to us before its theatrical release in France on February 12, 2025. Trailer:
