Captain America: Brave New World movie storyline. Captain America: Civil War (2016) ended the Captain America trilogy starring Chris Evans as Steve Rogers. Mackie’s Wilson became the new Captain America in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, and a new Captain America film was being written by Spellman and Musson (both writers on the series) by April 2021. In this new story Sam Wilson finds himself at the center of an international incident and must work to stop the true brains behind it.
Captain America: Brave New World is an upcoming American superhero film based on the Marvel Comics character Sam Wilson / Captain America, produced by Marvel Studios and distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures. It is intended to be the fourth installment in the Captain America film series, a continuation of the television miniseries The Falcon and the Winter Soldier (2021), and the 35th film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).
The film is directed by Julius Onah from a script written by the writing team of Malcolm Spellman and Dalan Musson, and Matthew Orton. It stars Anthony Mackie as Sam Wilson / Captain America alongside Danny Ramirez, Shira Haas, Xosha Roquemore, Carl Lumbly, Giancarlo Esposito, Liv Tyler, Tim Blake Nelson, and Harrison Ford. In the film, Wilson finds himself at the center of an international incident.
Principal photography began on March 21, 2023, at Trilith Studios in Atlanta, Georgia, under the working title Rochelle Rochelle. Kramer Morgenthau served as cinematographer. Onah wanted the film’s action to be “grounded and tactile” and give Wilson things to do that were not seen in his previous appearances. Avery reiterated that their intent was for the film to be more grounded in reality than recent MCU films had been. Liv Tyler joined the cast by the end of March 2023, reprising her role of Betty Ross from The Incredible Hulk.
The start of the 2023 Writers Guild of America strike in May 2023 was not expected to impact production of the film, with Marvel Studios reportedly planning to shoot what they could during principal photography and make any necessary writing adjustments during the film’s already scheduled reshoots.
Later in May, set photos revealed that Seth Rollins was part of the cast.[24] In early June, Marvel Studios announced that the film had been retitled Captain America: Brave New World. Jeremy Mathai at /Film praised the subtitle change, saying it “strikes a far more optimistic perspective [than New World Order], doubling as a commentary on the future of the famous superhero in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and as a statement on some very overdue representation”.
The change was also deemed to be a wise decision by Collider’s Hilary Remley, who noted that the original title could have been interpreted as having antisemitic connotations. The film’s release date was soon delayed to July 26, 2024. Filming moved to Washington, D.C., by the end of June, and wrapped on June 30.
