Captain America 4 Can’t Repeat 1 Steve Rogers Tragedy For Sam Wilson
Captain America: New World Order will be Sam Wilson's first solo movie, but it cannot repeat one Steve Rogers tragedy from Captain America: The First Avenger. The Marvel Cinematic Universe shifted Anthony Mackie's character from Falcon to the new Captain America at the end of Phase 3. The absence of Chris Evans' Steve Rogers after Avengers: Endgame has allowed Sam to take over the mantle and lead Captain America 4. While the events of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier helped show Sam's journey to accepting the title, the Phase 5 movie will be where his first full Captain America adventure takes place.
The decision to make another Captain America movie with Anthony Mackie as the star will only bring about more comparisons between Sam Wilson and Steve Rogers. This will likely include comparing how their first solo movies stack up against each other. Captain America: New World Order is poised to be very different from Captain America: The First Avenger, but it could hold some similarities in terms of what Sam and Steve experience as they learn the ropes of being the Star Spangled Man.
