In honor of Independence Day, Anthony Mackie, aka Captain America, has taken to social media to share a new photo from his forthcoming film, Captain America: Brave New World.
“Happy Birthday America! Have a great 4th, see you soon…,” Mackie captioned his Instagram post.
The film arrives next year, marking the film passing of the starred shield from Steve Rogers (Chris Evans) to Sam Wilson (Mackie), an event which was previewed at the end of Avengers: Endgame in 2019 and fully unveiled in the Disney+ series The Falcon and the Winter Solider in 2021.
The new film picks up after the events of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier and stars Danny Ramirez as Joaquin Torres/Falcon, Carl Lumbly as Isaiah Bradley, Liv Tyler as Betty Ross, and Shira Haas as Sabra. Xosha Roquemore, Seth Rollins, and Rosa Salazar have also been cast, but their roles are undisclosed.
Giancarlo Esposito was also added as an unknown villain during reshoots.
