Sam Wilson Steps Up: ‘Captain America: Brave New World’ Producer Hints at New Avengers Leader!

Captain America: Brave New World is one of the most exciting upcoming MCU movies. It was voted the #1 most anticipated film by Fandango audiences—and for good reason. The movie will mark Sam Wilson’s first time as Captain America in a solo film and will feature major villains like Nelson’s The Leader and Harrison Ford’s Red Hulk.

While the plot is mostly under wraps, we know Sam will be tasked by Thunderbolt Ross with bringing the Avengers back together and facing some big threats along the way.

Producer Nate Moore hints that Sam Wilson is ready to step up as the leader every superhero team needs, teasing even greater challenges ahead for Captain America.

He believes the Avengers are at their best with Captain America as their leader, and the movie will explore the team’s future and if Sam is the right choice to lead them.

There is certainly more story to be told for Captain America. Sam might find that, moving forward, he might be jumping out of the frying pan and into the proverbial fire.

I think that Avengers teams are best when they are led by a Captain America. And this movie gives us a little bit of space to talk about, ‘Where are the Avengers? What does it mean to have Avengers? And is Sam the right guy to lead them?

This isn’t the first time Sam has been suggested as the new leader of the Avengers. It makes sense for him to take on the role, and insiders have been hinting at it for nearly a year now.

There are also rumors that the Avengers might have two leaders: Captain America and Captain Marvel. With how The Marvels ended and Carol’s military background, this could be a possible choice too.
