‘Captain America: Brave New World’ Will Return to the “Grounded” Tone of ‘The Winter Soldier’

For next year’s Captain America: Brave New World, Marvel Studios is bringing the franchise back down to earth.

In the lead-up to the film’s release, both Kevin Feige and star Anthony Mackie have been adamant that the fourth Captain America film will be a grounded, political thriller, not an intergalactic battle of super beings.

In fact, during Marvel Studios’ Hall H panel at San Diego Comic-Con last weekend, Kevin Feige told the audience that Brave New World will feature a tone similar to Captain America: The Winter Soldier.

“So, it was the first conversation we had up until now, was making sure that the movie was grounded,” he said. “A bunch of our reshoots was about the idea of taking the movie where it was and grounding it more.”

Assuming the Mantle

Captain America: Brave New World will see Mackie’s Sam Wilson finally assume the mantle of Captain America on the big screen. Mackie understands the responsibility that comes with picking up the shield.

“Captain America is every man’s hero, you know? Every man has to look at Captain America and see himself in Cap. So it’s very important that when people look at me as Captain America, they see themselves and me the way I saw myself in Superman or Batman when I was a kid,” he explained.

“So, it was a conversation we had since the beginning, and it’s something that we stuck to since we finished the movie.”
