The upcoming Captain America: Brave New World film was showcased at Disney’s CinemaCon 2024 presentation, featuring footage of Harrison Ford’s Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross asking Anthony Mackie’s Captain America to rebuild the Avengers. In the clip, President Ross is seen at the White House in Washington, D.C., with a new clean-shaven look due to losing his mustache for the election campaign. He talks about the need for Captain America to reform the Avengers and references the recovery of a stolen item called the Millennium from a Japanese mining site.
