Marvel fans got a first, very intriguing Captain America: Brave New World trailer earlier in July, but on the occasion of San Diego Comic-Con, Marvel gave fans inside its Hall H panel an even better look at the studio’s next movie starring one of its flagship heroes.
Introduced by Kevin Feige to open the proceedings in Hall H tonight, the footage began at the White House. President Ross (Harrison Ford) is hosting an event about the celestial mass that appeared on Earth. He explains that when that happened, many different people rushed to try and claim it. It was a whole mess. But, thanks to Captain America, they finally have found something of value. A new element: adamantium. Yes, that adamantium.
In a new scene that seems to come after, we see Sam (Anthony Mackie) and Ross speaking in the Oval Office. He wants Cap to rebuild the Avengers but, Cap points out, Ross’ Sokovia Accords previously destroyed the Avengers. So, he asks, what happens when they disagree? We don’t get an answer.
A bunch of action scenes, including a big part of the White House being destroyed, happen and we see Sam in a normal suit strutting into the Situation Room. He says he has to talk to the President. Everyone leaves, except one woman: Ruth (Shira Haas). Ross says she stays no matter what. Apparently, Sam is worried that Ross’s inner circle has been compromised and Ross tells Ruth to put it to bed. Sam says that’s bullshit. Ross says it’s politics.
A person in a hood kills a bunch of people in a room. Captain America and Falcon (Danny Ramirez) are flying around together. We see Cap throw the shield from the air with the wings spread out. The phrase “The Future Favors the Brave” appears on screen.
Ross is giving a speech outside the White House. Shots are fired, he ducks down and starts to Hulk out. Out emerges Red Hulk, with Harrison Ford’s face via motion capture.
Captain America: Brave New World stars Anthony Mackie as Sam Wilson, who took over the mantle of Captain America from Chris Evans’ Steve Rogers. His co-stars include Harrison Ford (as Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross, a role formerly played in the MCU by the late William Hurt), Danny Ramirez, Shira Haas, Xosha Roquemore, Carl Lumbly, Giancarlo Esposito—whose villainous role is now confirmed to be Seth Voelker, aka Sidewinder, a founding member of the Serpent Society—Liv Tyler, and Tim Blake Nelson.
Captain America: Brave New World will arrive in theaters February 14, 2025.
