Since 10 years ago, Chris Evans dedicated himself to interpreting Captain America and the time to say goodbye has come, but there are those who continue to refuse the idea that the actor leaves the Marvel Universe, because they have taken the news very badly that it will now be Anthony Mackie who will give life to the superhero of superhuman forces.
As had happened in the past, it is not new that Marvel fans hoped that Evans – who played this character on all previous occasions – would reappear as super-soldier Steve Rogers in the next installment of the film, but this version has already been denied: Chris does not return, but Captain America does.
The news that Anthony Mackie – who played Sam Wilson in the Disney + series – would become the new Captain America occurred this week, along with the news that there is also a confirmed director to shoot the fourth part of the frozen superhero’s story during the Second World War. This is Julius Onah, the filmmaker who was in charge of “The Cloverfield Paradox” in 2018.

So far, there are no indications that question Onah’s work to direct the tape. Unlike what happens with Mackie, who since he plays Sam Wilson -a former member of the United States armed forces who assists fellow veterans with post-traumatic disorders, and is later recruited with the Avengers -since 2014-, a large part of the film’s fans have criticized the decision to include him in the cast, since playing Wilson automatically made him the successor to Chris Evans.
“TMZ” indicated that the denials against Anthony Mackie are motivated by racial prejudice, as part of the social media community has not tired of ensuring that a man of color should not be included to take over the role.
It was Chris Evans himself who broke with the illusion, posting a short but very clear message on his Instagram account yesterday: “Sam Wilson is Captain America.”
Although there has been a lot of commotion among fans of the Marvel Universe, at the end of “Avengers: Endgame” (2019), it had already been very clear that the character of Evans -in which he is represented as an older man- had appointed Sam Wilson as his successor.
Finally, the news portal indicated that now that Mackie adopts the figure of Captain America there will also be dark revelations, regarding the origin of the character, since at the end of the Disney + series “The falcon and the winter soldier” (2021) he leaves glimpse that the United States government built the character, at the expense of people of color.
