Harrison Ford Needs Sam Wilson To Rebuild The Avengers [CinemaCon 2024]

No one can ever accuse Marvel Studios of failing to reap the benefits of a possibility. Though opinions have turned firmly combined on the Marvel Cinematic Universe lately following “Avengers: Endgame,” when the franchise appeared to succeed in its pure conclusion, one vibrant spot on the horizon has been the promise of the subsequent “Captain America” film. Nevertheless, the highly-anticipated manufacturing has seen the shine come off its defend (so to talk) following a prolonged delay together with an virtually endless stream of experiences about vital reshoots (and even a serious title change, besides). Properly, Kevin Feige learn the room and got here out swinging.

/Movie’s Ryan Scott has been our man on the bottom at CinemaCon and he relayed data immediately from the Disney panel, the place he watched the prolonged reel and summarized all of the high-flying motion for our profit. Feige himself got here on stage to hype the movie as “one other comparatively grounded motion thriller,” whereas Mackie chimed in to wax nostalgic about his introduction in “The Winter Soldier” and earnestly state that, “Nothing can account for beginning in these motion pictures 10 years in the past and attending to make my very own Marvel film.” By way of precise footage, the motion begins with a full scene set within the White Home with Wilson assembly Harrison Ford’s President Thunderbolt Ross (sans mustache, apparently sufficient). His tackle the character (he is taking up for the late William Harm) appears very completely different, and rather less animated than what Harm delivered to the display screen. “What you probably did down in Mexico opened my eyes,” Ross says to Sam Wilson (a really in-his-element Anthony Mackie). “Even I am unable to deny the nice you have accomplished.” 

Ross mentions needing Wilson to “assist me rebuild the Avengers,” and later, at a presentation about how the invention of the millennia was stolen from a mining web site (Ross thanks Captain America for getting it again), some music interrupts the presentation and all hell breaks free. The music has trigged some sleeper brokers, together with Carl Lumbly’s Isaiah Bradley, who initiates a shootout together with a number of different brokers. Ford hits the deck coated in glass and punches somebody out. From there, a fast teaser montage contains pictures of Wilson’s new swimsuit and wings (it appears extra blue than it did in “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier”), numerous espionage intrigue, and a extra “old-school MCU” really feel.

“Captain America: Courageous New World” arrives in theaters February 14, 2025.
