In an exclusive conversation with actors Danny Ramirez and Anthony Mackie, we delve into the highly anticipated Captain America: Brave New World, a pivotal moment for the MCU as it ushers in a new chapter for the iconic character.
With Mackie taking on the mantle of Captain America, alongside Ramirez as the fan-favorite Joaquin Torres, the dynamic between the two stars promises to be one of the most exciting aspects of the film.
When asked about stepping into the legendary shoes of Captain America, Anthony Mackie shared how important the role is to him both as an actor and as a fan of the franchise. “It’s surreal,” Mackie admitted. “Taking on the mantle of Captain America is something that not only represents a big shift in the MCU but also carries a responsibility, especially considering the cultural impact Steve Rogers had. It’s an honor to continue his legacy.”
Danny Ramirez, who plays Joaquin Torres (aka Falcon), echoed the sentiment, acknowledging the rich history of the franchise while also highlighting the changes ahead. “The film isn’t just about passing the shield,” Ramirez explained. “It’s about what that shield represents, how it evolves, and how Sam (Anthony’s character) is stepping into something new. Joaquin is right there with him, supporting him on this journey. It’s a beautiful thing to be part of.”
