Anthony Mackie talks about carrying Chris Evans' legacy in the upcoming film
Anthony Mackie is set to take on the role of Captain America in the upcoming film Captain America: Brave New World, marking a pivotal moment for the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).
Following Chris Evans’ retirement from the role of Steve Rogers, Mackie’s character, Sam Wilson, will carry the iconic shield, ushering in a new era for the MCU.
Speaking about the film, Mackie expressed excitement for fans to witness Sam Wilson’s transformation. “I think audiences should be excited because it’s the first time you get to see Sam Wilson as Captain America on the big screen! He gets a new suit with all kinds of new features, which I haven’t fully discovered yet.”
“You’ll also see a lot of familiar faces and the rebuilding of the MCU as it enters a new phase. This film is a crucial stepping stone for the MCU, just as Captain America: The First Avenger was,” he said.

Mackie’s journey to becoming Captain America was explored in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, where Sam struggled with the weight of the shield. Now, in Brave New World, he will step into the role fully, complete with a new suit and untapped powers that will reshape his superhero persona on screen.
The film is not only about Sam Wilson’s ascent but also plays a key role in setting the tone for the MCU’s next phase, similar to how The First Avenger set the stage for the Infinity Saga.
As the MCU continues to evolve post-Endgame, Brave New World could serve as a pivotal moment in bridging legacy characters with the future of the franchise.
Fans are eager to see how Mackie’s version of Captain America honors Steve Rogers’ legacy while carving his own path, with new challenges, allies, and surprises on the horizon.
