After the dramatic events of Avengers: Endgame, it seemed like the MCU had lost its beacon, Captain America. However, a new man took the shield during the Marvel series The Falcon and The Winter Soldier. Sam Wilson is the MCU’s second star-studded man, and people want to know when we’ll see him in his own Marvel movie. So what is the release date of Captain America 4?
First introduced in The Winter Soldier, Sam Wilson (Anthony Mackie) quickly became best friends with Steve Rogers (Chris Evans) and helped save Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan) who had been brainwashed by the USSR. It wasn’t long before Sam joined Earth’s Mightiest Heroes and fought in battle against Thanos during Infinity War. Sam was one of the unfortunate souls who were bluffed, but Steve decided he should be the next Captain America when he returned.
So what can Sam expect in his first solo MCU film? Well, Marvel Studios is keeping exact plot details and leaks more secret than a HYDRA dossier, but if you know where to look, you can find some nuggets of information. Here is everything we know about the Captain America 4 release date.
Captain America 4 release date
Marvel Studios has announced that Captain America 4 will be released on May 3, 2024. Titled New World Order, the film is Marvel’s penultimate Phase 5 film, second only to The Thunderbolts.
Captain America 4 casting speculation
As of August 2022, Anthony Mackie is the only Captain America 4 actor to have been officially confirmed. If we were to speculate, we think it’s likely that Sebastian Stan will appear as Bucky Barnes in the film – especially since he’s likely to be a member of The Thunderbolts – although we don’t think he will. a major role.
Emily VanCamp, who plays Sharon Carter, is another The Falcon and The Winter Soldier alum we’d love to see in New World Order. When we last saw Sharon, she had become the criminal known as the Power Broker after being disavowed by SHIELD. Seems like a weird place to leave a historically heroic character, so hopefully she gets a bit of a redemption arc.
Who is who? Best MCU Characters
As for the villain, well, nothing has been announced, but we’re not going to pass up an opportunity to wish Daniel Bruhn a return to the MCU. Zemo, Barnes, and Wilson had such great chemistry in The Falcon and The Winter Soldier that it would be silly not to bring him back (please Marvel, I implore you).
Julius Onah, who directed the time travel film The Cloverfield Paradox, is the seat to be directed using a script by Dalan Musson and Malcolm Spellman, who previously worked on The Falcon and The Winter Soldier.
Captain America 4 Plot Speculation
No specific plot synopsis was given for Captain America 4. That said, we can guess from The Falcon and The Winter Soldier cast and crew comments where the movie may go.
The film is likely to continue exploring what Sam thinks of being the new Cap and working out his place in the world. Nate Moore, vice president of production and development, apparently confirmed this to ComicBook.com.

“It’s not Steve Rogers, and I think that’s a good thing because, to me, this new Cap is Rocky,” Moore told them. “He’s going to be the underdog in any situation. He’s not a super soldier. He is not a hundred years old. He doesn’t have the Avengers.
“What about this guy who publicly announces, without backing, ‘I’m the new Captain America.’ What happens next? I think it’s fascinating because he’s a guy,” he continued. “He’s a guy with wings and a shield, but he’s a guys. So we’re going to put it to the test and make it win and see what happens when it’s outdone, outclassed, outdone by everything. What makes someone Captain America? I’ll say that’s not being a super soldier. And I think we’re going to prove it with Mackie and Sam Wilson.

It’s also likely that the film will be inspired by a Marvel comic book story called New World Order. This story has spanned multiple Marvel books and seen the Red Skull attempt to do what Marvel villains do and take over the world. Could the Red Skull return? Well, he was being held prisoner by the Soul Stone, but it’s gone now, so who knows?
