Marvel Studios has hired Matthew Orton, the co-writer of the fifth episode of the ‘Moon Knight‘ series, to write additional scenes and material for the reshoots of ‘Captain America: Brave New World.’
We reported that the latest Captain America film received a negative response at an internal test screening. Reshoots are now scheduled for up to six months (January to June 2024), during which three major sequences will be either cut or reworked, resulting in the delay of the film’s release to 2025.
Directed by Julius Onah from a screenplay by Malcolm Spellman and Dalan Musson. The film stars Anthony Mackie as Sam Wilson/Captain America, Danny Ramirez as Joaquín Torres/Falcon, Tim Blake Nelson as Samuel Sterns/Leader, Carl Lumbly as Isaiah Bradley, Harrison Ford as President Thaddeus Ross, Liv Tyler as Betty Ross, Shira Haas as Ruth Bat-Seraph/Sabra, and Xosha Roquemore.
The plot details of the film are as follows: In Brave New World, an international conflict over a new metal called Adamantium was discovered on Tiamut, the Celestial of the Eternals, which is now an island. Each country wants a piece of that new metal and claims the island as its own. Harrison Ford’s Thaddeus ‘Thunderbolt’ Ross, who is now president, wants to reclaim the island and the Adamantium at all costs, and Sam Wilson’s Captain America gets in his way by trying to stop him by assembling a new group of heroes, including the new Falcon, to oppose him. Captain America will be fighting some other villains who are also trying to get their hands on Adamantium. It is also confirmed that a vibranium war will occur in Captain America: New World Order and Thunderbolts.
In the film, Mackie’s Sam Wilson, the new Captain America, will sport a new stealth suit resembling Steve Rogers’ from Avengers: Age of Ultron.
‘Captain America: Brave New World’ will hit theaters on February 14, 2025.
