"Captain America 4: Brave New World" hints at surprising villain transformation.
The fourth Captain America film, previously subtitled New World Order, has been renamed to Brave New World, possibly referencing the classic dystopian novel by Aldous Huxley. The film may explore dystopian themes with the introduction of The Leader and the Serpent Society, and potentially feature the U.S. Agent as a foil to the new Captain America. The new title may distance the film from controversy surrounding the phrase "new world order" and its association with right-wing conspiracy theories. Captain America: Brave New World is set to premiere on May 3, 2024.
