Captain America: Brave New World Cast & Marvel Character Guide
Summary- Captain America: Brave New World features Sam Wilson as the MCU's new Captain America, facing familiar and new characters.
- Harrison Ford plays President Ross, setting the stage for political drama alongside returning MCU characters.
- Tim Blake Nelson returns as The Leader, introducing a new threat to challenge Sam Wilson as Captain America.
Acting as a sequel to the Captain America franchise, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, and curiously, The Incredible Hulk, Captain America: Brave New World brings back many characters from MCU history. While the story centers on Sam Wilson's new role as one of Earth's most iconic Mightiest Heroes, the inclusion of a variety of Hulk-related characters has caused uncertainty about what story will unfold in the Phase 5 film. Three characters from 2008's The Incredible Hulk are set to see the spotlight again, two of which haven't been seen since the Hulk's MCU solo film, and they'll be joined by some surprising characters in Captain America: Brave New World.

Sam Wilson's MCU journey started in Captain America: The Winter Soldier, which saw him form a close bond with Steve Rogers. As the Falcon, he became an Avenger at the end of Avengers: Age of Ultron, he though was branded a fugitive only a year later in Captain America: Civil War, as he fought with Team Cap against the Sokovia Accords. After being passed the Captain America mantle by an older Rogers in Avengers: Endgame, Wilson finally wielded the shield (and sported a new vibranium suit) in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. Plot details about what or whom Sam Wilson will be up against in Captain America: Brave New World are still scarce, but footage screened at CinemaCon in March 2024 teases at least one new important task for Sam. Here, Wilson meets with President Ross (Harrison Ford), who discusses reforming the Avengers. After the iconic Marvel team has been absent from the MCU since Avengers: Endgame, Brave New World could finally be the beginning of reforming the team ahead of the upcoming Avengers: The Kang Dynasty.
Danny Ramirez as Joaquín Torres, A.K.A. The Falcon
A relatively new addition to the MCU, Danny Ramirez debuted as Joaquín Torres in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. Torres worked with Sam Wilson as a United States Air Force lieutenant and intelligence officer and had the honor of being the first to inform Wilson of the Flag Smashers and the threat they posed to global stability. Torres' future as the Falcon was teased in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier and his new position was confirmed by Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige at 2022's D23 Expo. Torres is an important character in Sam Wilson's Marvel Comics storyline as Captain America, so his involvement in Brave New World is very exciting. Just as Sam formed a bond with Steve, the aforementioned Brave New World footage from CinemaCon confirms that Torres is still working closely with Wilson. The two are thanked by the president for a mission they'd presumably completed off-screen (or at least not in the shown footage). Moreover, McDonald's tie-in merchandise has revealed Torres' new Falcon costume, which shows the outfit as not dissimilar from Sam's but with a helmet instead of goggles and more greens and browns in color.
Carl Lumbly as Isaiah Bradley
Carl Lumbly was also confirmed to be reprising his The Falcon and the Winter Soldier role at 2022's D23 Expo, returning as Isaiah Bradley, a Korean War veteran who was unwillingly subjected to experiments on a super-soldier serum in the 1950s. As the government feared the ramifications of an African-American super soldier, Bradley was incarcerated for three decades. Sam Wilson was introduced to Bradley thanks to Bucky Barnes, as the pair had fought in the '50s while Bucky was still the Winter Soldier. It's possible that Eli Bradley, Isaiah's grandson, could also appear in Brave New World to become the Young Avenger known as Patriot. Early footage revealed at CinemaCon paints a troubling picture for Bradley in Brave New World. In one scene, Bradley is present along with Sam, Joaquínm and President Ross, when sounds over the building speakers seem to trigger some type of mind control. Bradley pulls out a gun and shoots at the president before escaping the situation. Details are unclear, but Bradley is set for a t least a bit more trouble in his tumultuous MCU journey.
Tim Blake Nelson as Samuel Sterns, A.K.A. The Leader
Tim Blake Nelson's casting in Captain America: Brave New World came as a shock to Marvel Studios fans, as the actor had previously appeared as Samuel Sterns in The Incredible Hulk. The second MCU film saw Sterns exposed to Bruce Banner's gamma-irradiated blood, seemingly starting to transform him, though he hasn't been seen nor mentioned since. In Marvel Comics, this transformation leads to Sterns becoming the Leader, a super-intelligent Hulk villain, and this has been confirmed to be his role in Captain America: Brave New World. It's unclear what threat the Leader will pose to Sam Wilson, but Nelson's return to the MCU is highly anticipated. Recently, Nelson teased that Brave New World's take on The Leaders is relatively grounded. In Marvel Comics, The Leader is to intelligence what Hulk is to strength, which sees his mental fortitude go so far as to stretch into the supernatural. However, given Nelson's comments, it seems likely that Sterns will utilize more tangible expressions of his mental prowess. It's possible that The Leaders is the man behind Bradley's mind control, but only time will tell.
Harrison Ford as President Thaddeus Ross
Harrison Ford was cast in the role of Thaddeus Ross in October 2022, continuing the legacy of the late William Hurt, who debuted the character in The Incredible Hulk and made various appearances in subsequent MCU projects. Ross has been confirmed to be the new President of the United States in Captain America: Brave New World, so it's clear the film will have a political standpoint. Speculation suggests that Ross will finally transform into the infamous Red Hulk in Brave New World, ahead of his next appearance in Thunderbolts, though this hasn't yet been confirmed by Marvel Studios. Red Hulk has, however, been included in promotional tie-in toys from McDonalds. Shira Haas as Ruth Bat-Seraph, A.K.A. Sabra
Israeli actor Shira Haas is set to make her MCU debut in Captain America: Brave New World as Ruth Bat-Seraph, a.k.a. Sabra, a mutant with the ability to transfer her life energy to others and grant superpowers to regular individuals. After her casting, Marvel Studios were met with criticism as Marvel Comics' Sabra has held stereotypical views of Palestians and Arabs, but Marvel Studios responded by reassuring audiences that Brave New World's Sabra would be a fresh take on the character. Haas is perhaps best known for her starring role as Esther "Esty" Shapiro in Netflix's 2020 miniseries Unorthodox. Liv Tyler as Betty Ross
It was announced in March 2023 that Liv Tyler would reprise her The Incredible Hulk role of Betty Ross for Brave New World. Despite a variant of Ross appearing in What If...? season 1, the character has been missing from the MCU since the 2008 film, even though she played a pivotal role in Bruce Banner's Hulk origins. Since Thaddeus Ross will be revealed to be the MCU's President, it's likely she'll butt heads with her estranged father once again. Betty Ross did also meet Samuel Sterns in The Incredible Hulk, so perhaps she has even been working with the Leader in the lead-up to Captain America: Brave New World. Captain America: Brave New World Supporting Cast & Characters Close Xosha Roquemore - Known for her roles in Precious, The Mindy Project, and Space Jam: A New Legacy, Xosha Roquemore was cast in Brave New World in January 2023. Though Roquemore's new character in Captain America: Brave New World hasn't been revealed, there is speculation that she could be portraying Sam Wilson's love-interest, Leila Taylor, or even the character of Misty Knight, who was previously played by Simone Missick on Netflix's Luke Cage, The Defenders, and Iron Fist series. Roquemore has been said to have key role in Captain America: Brave New World, but only time will tell who she will actually be playing.
Rosa Salazar - Best known as the leading, titular character in Alita: Battle Angel and for her appearances in Bird Box, The Maze Runner, and American Horror Story, Rosa Salazar has been cast in an undisclosed role in Captain America: Brave New World. However, despite no official comment confirming her part in the movie, set photos indicate that she may be playing the villainous Diamondback. Diamondback, as Rachel Leighton, is known for her prowess with thrown weapons and is a one-time member of the Serpent Society. However, in Marvel Comics, she's also been a Captain America ally.
Seth Rollins - Like other supporting cast members, WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins has not officially been tied to a role in Captain America: Brave New World. However, he was spotted in set photos with Rosa Salazar that appear to support rumors he'll be playing Serpent Society leader King Cobra.
