Anthony Mackie confirms Sam Wilson will not take the Super Soldier Serum in Captain America: Brave New World, keeping him a grounded hero.

Brave New Worldis headed to theaters next week, but that has not stopped Marvel Studios from unveiling a brand-new clip from the film that directly addresses the current state of the Avengers. Brave New World will see Sam Wilson (Anthony Mackie) battle President “Thunderbolt” Ross (Harrison Ford),

There are two words that kept coming up during the shoot of this movie between Julius [Onah] and I … empathy and compassion,” Mackie told the channel of his close collaboration with the film’s director.

It might've been six years since the last Avengers movie, but Marvel is gearing up for two new team-up movies that are sure to be as big as their predecessors: Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars.

Anthony Mackie has been part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Sam Wilson / Falcon since Phase 2 of the franchise. He is set to make his big-screen debut as Captain America in the upcoming Captain America: Brave New World.
