Anthony Mackie Shares The Sweet Story Of Chris Evans Telling Him He’s Be The Next Captain America

As a gamer who has spent countless hours immersed in the Marvel universe, I must say that the transition of Captain America from Chris Evans to Anthony Mackie is not just a change, but a thrilling evolution. Having grown up with Steve Rogers as our beloved Cap, the idea of someone else taking over the shield was initially daunting. Yet, after witnessing Mackie’s heartfelt portrayal of Sam Wilson in The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, I am now excited to see what Brave New World has in store.


The Marvel Cinematic Universe is recognized for its continuous growth, playing out in cinemas and streaming platforms with a Disney+ membership. Fans who have religiously followed the Marvel films sequentially are aware that the post-“Endgame” era has seen numerous modifications. Among these alterations is Anthony Mackie’s character, Sam Wilson, assuming the role of Captain America, a transition he recently disclosed was initiated by Chris Evans.

Brave New World will be the first film in the series where Anthony Mackie is the main character. Although the cast for Captain America 4 looks impressive, some fans might miss Chris Evans as the original Captain America. However, at a Disney APA Content Showcase in Singapore (as reported by Deadline), Mackie shared that Evans reacted very positively when passing the torch to him. They were watching football together when Evans showed Mackie the final pages of Avengers: Endgame, revealing Sam’s future more clearly. As Mackie remembers it, this moment occurred as they were bonding over their love for sports.

When I read it, we just hugged each other and jumped around in a circle.

It’s quite delightful, isn’t it? Considering Evans’ extended role as Steve Rogers, it wouldn’t be surprising if he harbored mixed feelings about another individual taking over the mantle of Captain America. However, he appeared genuinely excited for his friend and fellow actor, Mackie, who was elevated significantly within the Marvel Cinematic Universe with this new promotion.

After the conclusion of “The Falcon and The Winter Soldier,” Sam Wilson officially assumed the role of (flying) Captain America, which he will continue in future Marvel films. After quite a wait, we’ll get to witness him as the main character in “Captain America: Brave New World.” It’s intriguing to think about how this movie’s action might change with its new leading star. With his wings and the fact that he never took the super soldier serum, we can expect a significantly different Captain America in the near future.

Enthusiasts can’t wait to discover how the latest Captain America shapes up the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) as a whole. The addition of Red Hulk has sparked intrigue, especially since Harrison Ford is confirmed to reprise his role as Thaddeus Ross within the Thunderbolts ensemble. At present, the means by which he transforms into Red Hulk remains unclear in this narrative, but the previews for Brave New World hint at a grand confrontation. It’s uncertain how non-super soldier Sam Wilson will tackle this towering adversary.

Following his debut as Captain America in a standalone film, Mackie is anticipated to play a role in the two Russo Brothers-directed crossover movies. Fans are excitedly waiting for updates regarding the cast of the upcoming movie titled Avengers: Doomsday.

The film titled “Captain America: Brave New World” is set to premiere in theaters on Valentine’s Day, 2025. In the meantime, here are the confirmed release dates for the movie.
