Marvel Studios’ Captain America: Brave New World starring Anthony Mackie is set to hit JioHotstar on May 28, the streaming platform announced on Friday.
“A hero is about to soar. Marvel Studios’ Captain America: Brave New World, streaming May 28 on #JioHotstar,” JioHotstar wrote alongside a teaser of the film.
Directed by Julius Onah and adapted from a screenplay by Malcolm Spellman, Dalan Musson and Matthew Orton, Captain America: Brave New World hit theatres worldwide on February 14.
This movie serves as a continuation of the 2021 web series The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. Set some time after the events in the Disney+ series, Brave New World follows Sam Wilson as he struggles with his new identity. The world isn’t unanimously on board with a Captain America who isn’t a super-soldier and Sam himself is still figuring out what kind of Captain he wants to be. He has the new Falcon, Joaquin Torres (Danny Ramirez), to help him.
Chris Evans portrayed Steve Rogers in three previous Captain America films and four Avengers movies. During the finale of 2019’s Avengers: Endgame, Rogers decided to give up on his superhero suit and return to the past to live out the rest of his days with Peggy Carter (Hayley Atwell). He entrusted his vibranium shield to Wilson, who vowed to keep his legacy alive.
Danny Ramirez has reprised his role as former Air Force lieutenant Joaquin Torres in Captain America: Brave New World. Tim Blake Nelson has also returned as Samuel Sterns aka The Leader, a character that last appeared in the 2008 film The Incredible Hulk. Shira Haas has joined as Ruth Bat-Seraph, a former Black Widow who is now a high-ranking US government official.
