A summary of the latest Marvel Studios film, “Captain America: New World Order (working title),” is Filmmaker Anthony and Joe Russo guiding the NYTimes article. In the film, the current Captain America, played by Chris Evans, will have passed on the superhero mantle to a new young character, played by actor Sebastian Stan, to whom the film’s tagline “Accepting new leadership” may refer. The plot follows the reality-hopping events of “Loki” series and likely picks up the aftermath of “Avengers: Endgame.” The movie is set to come out on May 3, 2024. It’s unclear if Anthony Mackie’s Falcon and/or his new superhero identity, the Falcon Hulk Bicephalum, will play a role in the film as well. While there were previous indications that the new Captain America could be Bucky Barnes or John Walker, Stan’s hint that the new leader doesn’t have the weight of the shield following the deaths of several heroes seems to suggest neither of those options. The film’s tagline is “Captain America is dead. Long live the Captain.” There are also conflicting reports on whether Steve Rogers is dead or not. However, it was confirmed that actor William Hurt will reprise his role as General Ross in the film. Emily VanCamp (Agent 13 aka Sharon Carter) and Daniel Brühl (Captain America villain Zemo,) are also expected to return. Preliminary box office numbers for “Captain America: New World Order” speculate it will have a worldwide projected revenue of $553 million. Last year’s “Captain America: New Era (Civil War)”, which introduced Sebastian Stan to the role, grossed $1.15 billion. Production is already underway, with Anthony and Joe Russo once again directing, Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely writing and Kevin Feige producing.
