Captain America 4: Chris Evans and director announcement found

Captain America 4 has found its director! The Anthony Mackie-helmed feature film will be directed by Julius Ona, to whom we owe The Cloverfield Paradox.

Recall that Anthony Mackie has been playing the role of Sam Wilson, alias Falcon, the winged superhero friend of Steve Rogers (Chris Evans) since Captain America, The Winter Soldier in 2014.

But at the end of the Disney+ series Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Sam Wilson takes up Steve Rogers’ shield and agrees to be the new Captain America after much hesitation.

When the name of the director was announced, the American magazine The Hollywood Reporter explained that they did not know if Chris Evans would reprise his role and if Anthony Mackie would return as Falcon or Captain America. Chris Evans then responded via his Twitter account:Sam Wilson is Captain America“

Therefore, the actor once again confirms that he really hung up the shield. In June last year, the actor responded to the site Comicbook.com Who asked him about it:

“It seems like the public wants to see me back as Captain America. I don’t want to disappoint anyone, but it will be difficult. It was wonderful to embody and I am very happy. This role is very valuable to me. If so, it must be perfect.”

Thus, the fourth part of the adventures of Captain America develops after the events of the Disney + series. Anthony Mackie reprises his role as Sam Wilson, but Wilson is no longer the Falcon, he’s now Captain America.

But it doesn’t say anything Chris Evans Will not return as an aged Steve Rogers (because he returned to the past at the end of Avengers Endgame) to help his friend master his armor and shield.

The screenplay will be written by Malcolm Spellman and Dalan Musson, who work on the series Falcon and Winter Soldier.
