CaptainAmerica star Anthony Mackie talks about his input into NewWorldOrder
Captain America star Anthony Mackie revealed how much input he has into his next Marvel movie. Captain America: New World Order was revealed in earnest at San Diego Comic-Con this year. In a conversation with Variety, Mackie said that he had a lot of conversations with Marcus Spellman, who is writing the sequel. The duo worked together on The Falcon and the Winter Soldier before this. Sam Wilson was wearing the costume and wielding the shield by the end of that series.
"They're definitely very inclusive. When we did"The Falcon and the Winter Soldier," [writer] Malcolm Spellman and I talked at length about what that character was turning into, what we wanted him to be, what we wanted that narrative to be. Now with Malcolm writing this"Captain America," it's the exact same thing. We've talked and communicated about what we want that story to be going forward and how it'll fit in this new Marvel universe.
What Is Sam Wilson Facing In Captain America: New World Order?Producer Nate Moore spoke to Comicbook.com's Phase Zero podcast about what the next chapter of Captain America's story looked like. It sounds like Mackie is going to be facing some unheard of adversity in Captain America 4. "I think, he's not Steve Rogers and I think that's a good thing," Moore explained on the show."Because to me, this new Cap is Rocky. He's going to be the underdog in any situation. He's not a super soldier. He's not a hundred years old. He doesn't have the Avengers. What happens with this guy who announces publicly kind of, without the support, 'I'm new Captain America.' What happens next? I think is fascinating because he's a guy.
