Film Friday: "Captain America: Brave New World," Has a Teaser Trailer

"Captain America: Brave New World," isn't due for release until early February of 2025, but is close enough that the first teaser trailer just dropped. Rumor has it the movie went through extensive reshoots and cost a pretty penny, but things look pretty snazzy based on the trailer alone, I'd say.

I see we've got Harrison Ford as President, "Thunderbolt," Ross, replacing William Hurt due to his passing in real life, Tim Blake Nelson is back after not appearing since, "Incredible Hulk," way back in 2008, and Giancarlo Esposito is a mysterious baddie that people think could be a dude named George Washington Bridge or Moon Knight's foe, Bushman. The main plot seems to be that Ross can't trust anyone outside of Anthony Mackie's Captain America due to a lot of people being after him. There the trailer has a big spy-thriller vibe and I've seen some folk online dig it and others think it looks mediocre. Some people have expressed concerns about an Israeli character as well due to recent World events between Israel and Palestine, but how big a role that character plays remains to be seen. Give the trailer a view here:

Did you notice that cool thing at the end? Yep, we've got a Red Hulk, one assumes played by Harrison Ford because Ross is, of course, the Red Hulk in the comics. "Deadpool and Wolverine," comes out this July and will arguably tee up the rest of the Marvel slate for the foreseeable future, so assuming that is a hit and then this is as snazzy as it may look perhaps Marvel will be back on track after some recent box-office struggles.
