From the world of superheroics, Anthony Mackie’s Sam Wilson is taking up the mantle of Captain America, a hefty legacy left by Steve Rogers. The catch? Wilson lacks the enhanced attributes of his predecessor; he’s just a regular guy.
However, a recent revelation may shed light on how Wilson manages super feats without super serum. According to the somewhat reliable scooper @MyTimeToShineH, the movie will introduce Adamantium, the near-indestructible alloy famously associated with Marvel comics.
In Marvel lore, Adamantium was fused with Wolverine’s bones during the Weapon X experiment. This process, proposed by the Japanese scientist Lord Dark Wind, led to the creation of a new metal, Adamantium Beta, when applied to Wolverine’s skeleton.
Now, rumors suggest that adamantium, sourced from the remains of the Celestial Tiamut in *Eternals*, will find its way into the film. It’s believed that the Japanese will discover a method to turn it into the steel alloy.
So, could Sam Wilson’s upgraded Captain America suit be fashioned from adamantium? If so, pairing an adamantium suit with his Vibranium shield could excel Wilson’s prowess, perhaps even enabling him to confront the Red Hulk. While speculative, this theory could hold water.
After the Hollywood strikes concluded in November 2023, Disney postponed the release of *Captain America: New World Order* by seven months to February 14, 2025, allowing for essential reshoots. During an earnings call, Disney CEO Bob Iger expressed particular enthusiasm for *Captain America 4*, slated for 2025.
Under the direction of Julius Onah, *Captain America: Brave New World* is helmed by a script from Malcolm Spellman and Dalan Musson. The cast includes Carl Lumbly as Isaiah Bradley, Shira Haas as Sabra, and Xosha Roquemore in an undisclosed role.
