A new beginning of Captain America 4

Clearly, the fourth Captain America film has a lot of unexpected departures. If we already knew fans would have to say goodbye to Steve Rogers (Chris Evans) and say hello to Sam Wilson (Anthony Mackie) as the new Captain America, but that won't be the only change. According to a statement from Anthony Mackie to Radio Times, Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan) will not appear in the film either. If this absence had already been implied before, it is now official, to the great displeasure of many.

There is still good news from Marvel

However, Barnes has always occupied an important place in the saga. This World War II veteran has become a loyal friend of Steve Rogers and Falcon, especially since the miniseries Falcon and the Winter Soldier. It was also during these filmings that Mackie became friends with Stan, whom he hoped to see again during the filming of Captain America 4. “I actually couldn't wait to do a second season, just so Sebastian [Stan] and I get paid to spend time together. Him, me and Daniel Brühl (who plays Baron Helmut Zemo). It was a good trio. When they decided to return to the cinema, I went with it, that's how it is, I no longer work with my friends, so that dampens the happiness a little. ».

However, the good news is that Bucky Barnes is not done with the MCU, far from it. We will indeed find him on the poster of the film Thunderboltsalongside Florence Pugh (Oppenheimer, Black Widow) or Harrison Ford (do we really need to introduce him?). The film is scheduled for release on April 30, 2025.

For his part, if Anthony Mackie already seems to feel a little alone, he won't play the solitary hero either. In the next film, he will be accompanied by a new Falcon, in the person of Joaquin Torres (played by Danny Ramirez). This new duo will have everything to prove and a lot to do to replace the previous Captain. Appointment in cinemas on February 12, 2025.
