The shield has been passed, as for the first time in the Marvel Cinematic Universe Chris Evans is not leading a new Captain America movie. Instead, MCU veteran Anthony Mackie is the new Cap, leading Captain America: Brave New World, which is now playing.
Mackie’s Sam Wilson was given the iconic Captain America shield in Avengers: Endgame and then officially accepted the mantle in the Disney Plus original series The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. Captain America: Brave New World will continue some elements of that series’ storyline while also introducing some exciting new aspects (a red Hulk?) for the first Marvel movie of 2025.
