Fans have been waiting for Mephisto to make his debut in the MCU for years, and Captain America: Brave New World has the perfect way to bring him in.

Brave New World is preparing for takeoff at the box office. The Anthony Mackie-fronted Marvel Studios movie hit pre-release tracking service The Quorum and is projected to open with upwards of $95 million when it flies into theaters over Valentine’s Day/Presidents’ Day weekend on Feb.

Marvel ’s Captain America: Brave New World will be released in United States theaters on February 14, 2025, as part of Phase Five of the MCU.

We nearly had an entirely different actor portraying Captain America, but I'm glad he was sidelined as it led to one of the MCU's best villains.

Feel free to revisit Stanley Tucci’s brief stint in the MCU by streaming Captain America: The First Avenger with a Disney+ subscription. Otherwise, the next of the upcoming Marvel movies is Captain America: Brave New World, which opens on February 14 on the 2025 release schedule and sees Anthony Mackie’s Sam Wilson serving as the titular hero.

Brave New World has been revealed, and it's relatively short for a Marvel movie. Per the AMC Theaters website, the runtime is one hour and 58 minutes, which makes it the shortest Captain America installment to date.

Stanley Tucci is falling on Marvel's shield amid the cinephile discord. The actor told Variety that his small role in 2011 tentpole Marvel film "Captain America: The First Avenger" was one of his most beloved experiences.

Brave New World is not only the shortest Captain America film in Marvel Cinematic Universe history, but it's one of the shortest MCU films. AMC Theatres revealed the runtime for Brave New World is one hour and 58 minutes,

Brave New World's major villain return could secretly connect the film to a Disney+ show that MCU fans have tried to forget.
