Anthony Mackie has said the incoming Captain America: Brave New World will be a grounded, espionage adventure akin to the original Captain Americas, rather than the wilder sci-fi or fantasy films Marvel has more recently released.
As reported by Deadline, Mackie suggested at the Disney APAC Content Showcase in Singapore that, despite featuring the likes of Red Hulk, fans can look forward to a more grounded story in Brave New World that sounds similar to fan favorite Captain America: The Winter Soldier.
"If you look at these Marvel movies, they go with different genres," Mackie said. "You have the fantasy world, you have the space world, you have the raccoon world. With the Captain America stories, it has always been the realistic, grounding world.
"This movie stays in the line with the original Captain America, of that thrill, of that espionage, of that grounded nature with storytelling and really investing the actual audience into the story."
This doesn't stop Mackie's Sam Wilson stopping off in Wakanda for a new suit, he revealed. "I can kick harder, I can fly faster, and it gives me the ability to be more agile in my skills, so it’s taking all my skills to a completely different level."
Fans can see how it all comes together on February 14, or enjoy a tease in the trailer featuring the likes of Harrison Ford's Red Hulk.
