Marvel actor Juan Miguel Gonzalez talks about his aspirations for his character Joaquin Torres and the possibility of him following in Sam Wilson's footsteps as Captain America.
The actor spoke with ComicBook.com to promote the upcoming Marvel blockbuster, and the topic of his future in the Marvel Cinematic Universe was raised. Ramirez noted that he hasn’t heard anything from Marvel Studios regarding his future appearances, saying, “I never expected the calls,” he said. “So, I’m just waiting to see ‘Caller ID: to be tapped in.
” Elsewhere in the interview, Ramirez discussed the possibility of Joaquin becoming Sam Wilson’s successor as Captain America, echoing Sam’s dynamic with Steve Rogers in the Infinity Saga. “I think the way that was established with Steve passing it to Sam, from who Sam is and having earned it, if that conversation ever gets there, I hope it’s in the same way — earning the shield,” he said. “It would be a privilege and an honor, and I think it would be also finding out what that story really is.”The friendly relationship between Sam and Joaquin, seen in both upcoming projects, premiere in 2026 and 2027 respectively, has been a focal point. After playing a supporting part in the Infinity Saga, Sam is ready to become a leader of the Avengers in the latter stages of the Multiverse Saga, building off his experience fighting Red Hulk in recent appearances. The two do not always agree on how closely Captain America and other heroes should work alongside the U.S. government. After battling Red Hulk and dealing with the aftermath of that, Sam is understandably going to want to team up with people he fully trusts. Joaquin certainly fits that bill, having been by Sam’s side through numerous ordeals (the Flag Smashers, Red Hulk, etc.). As Sam assembles the new Avengers team, it wouldn’t be surprising if Torres was one of his first calls. After all, Sam fought with Steve in the Avengers before the Sokovia Accords were signed.There seem to be a lot of parallels between the Steve/Sam and Sam/Joaquin dynamics, so they’ll likely be together on the next Avengers roster. However, Joaquin's future in the MCU could come down to whether or not the filmmakers find a spot for Torres that amounts to more than just a cameo. Marvel Studios is going to be juggling a lot on its plate as it attempts to set up a satisfying conclusion to the Multiverse Saga, and as great as it would be to see the new Falcon take flight against Doom, there probably won’t be room for every character in the movie. Still, given Captain America’s prominent place in the franchise, it’s plausible Joaquin will be in Captain America 4
