Anthony Mackie says Harrison Ford went all in on his Marvel stunts
Anthony Mackie reveals how Harrison Ford refused stunt doubles and went all in for "Captain America: Brave New World."
The wait is (soon to be) over. "Captain America: Brave New World," will be dropping on Disney+ later this month.
The Marvel superhero adventure, starring actors Anthony Mackie and Harrison Ford, follows Sam Wilson (Mackie) as he takes up the Captain America shield in the wake of a global conspiracy that "puts him on a collision course with the fearsome Red Hulk," according to Disney.
USA TODAY's Brian Truitt gave the film ★★½ out of four, writing that director Julius Onah's geopolitically tinged 'Brave New World' "is an unruly narrative that starts as a paranoia thriller (a la 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier') and devolves into a campy 'Hulk smash!' fest."
However, Truitt praised Mackie, a 10-year veteran of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, saying he "faithfully has taken the Captain America mantle from Chris Evans and given Cap new swagger and vulnerability."
Here's what to know about when "Captain America: Brave New World" will we available to stream on Disney+.
