- Captain America 4‘s director has responded to 2 large fan theories concerning the Marvel film
- MCU devotees have puzzled if Sam Wilson will reform the Avengers in Brave New World
- Fans have additionally mentioned whether or not it will lay the groundwork for Avengers: Doomsday
Captain America: Brave New World‘s director has provided a disappointing, albeit cryptic, reply to some large Marvel fan theories concerning the forthcoming movie.
Ahead of the film’s launch this Friday (February 14), two particular conversations have dominated social media and Marvel-centric boards alike. First, contemplating that Captain America historically leads the Avengers, will Anthony Mackie’s Sam Wilson reform Earth’s Mightiest Heroes in Brave New World? Second, given its relative shut proximity to Avengers: Doomsday, aka the following Avengers movie that’ll land in theaters, in May 2026, does it lay the foundations for the group’s subsequent team-up flick?
Understandably, Julius Onah did not definitively reply both rumor after I requested about them through the Marvel Phase 5 movie’s UK junket. That stated, Onah’s cryptic response recommended that Cap’s newest big-screen journey acknowledges each queries, even when it won’t give followers the solutions they’re searching for.
“When you enter this story, there are not any Avengers,” Onah stated. “And that was a part of what was thrilling about this movie. Historically, we have seen Captain America be a pacesetter of the Avengers, and I believe a part of the expansion and the journey that Sam Wilson takes on this movie is grappling with the query of ‘Should there be a gaggle of Avengers?’ and ‘What does it imply probably if I lead that group of Avengers?’. That’s the story that I used to be enthusiastic about telling.
“[But] I believe this film will then take you to a spot that units you up for what comes subsequent,” he added. “That’s one thing I’d by no means wish to spoil for an viewers, although!”
I doubt anybody would need you to spoil Captain America 4 forward of launch, Julius! We’ll simply have to attend till one in every of 2025’s most enjoyable new motion pictures takes flight in cinemas worldwide to see how integral it’s to organising what’s to return in Avengers 5 and past.
Before we attain that film as a part of Marvel Phase 6, there are two different movies that’ll be as essential as Brave New World is on the Doomsday set-up entrance. Thunderbolts, which arrives on May 2, will introduce us to an Avengers-style group of heroes and anti-heroes who could set up themselves as a short lived substitute to Earth’s Mightiest Heroes – certainly, Thunderbolts‘ newest trailer closely implied this might be the case.
Then there’s The Fantastic Four: First Steps. On the floor, the third and ultimate Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) flick of the yr has the strongest ties to Avengers: Doomsday as a result of Fantastic Four’s affiliation with Doctor Victor von Doom. He’ll be the first villain in Avengers 5 and its follow-up Avengers: Secret Wars, which can hit theaters in May 2027. Oh, and Robert Downey Jr – sure, he of Tony Stark and Iron Man fame – will play Doom, for anybody who did not already know.
But I’m getting forward of myself. Before Brave New World arrives, familiarize your self with its on-screen expertise in my Captain America: Brave New World forged and character information. You can study much more concerning the MCU flick as a complete in my Captain America: Brave New World hub, too, or learn extra of my unique Marvel protection under.
