The promotional tie-ins for Captain America: Brave New World have begun ahead of the movie's release in theaters next February, starting with a new minute-long commercial shared today by Microsoft.
In that, Joaquin Torres uses some new Windows technology to design his wings; Sam Wilson, meanwhile, has more pressing matters to tend to as he unleashes various gadgets to combat his enemies on the battlefield.
We also get some never-before-seen footage from the movie as Captain America and the new Falcon blast into action together (and no, your eyes aren't deceiving you: that is indeed the Celestial Tiamut's hand in the distance).
That's expected to be the location of a major aerial action sequence in Captain America: Brave New World and the source of Adamantium in the MCU. As we're sure you already know, that indestructible metal is what coats Wolverine's bones.
"It’s very different with the serum - you can fight anybody," Anthony Mackie recently said of how his Captain America differs from Steve Rogers. "When you don’t have the serum, you have to be smart and engineer different ways of defeating [enemies]. With Sam, him being a counselor, he uses more of his brains than brawn. He uses more of his wit than his fist. He’s more of a friend to everyone."
"It’s a high-tech suit," he continued. "I went to Wakanda, met with everybody in Wakanda, we had dinner. It was a great time. They threw me a welcome party. It was dope. But when I was leaving, they gave me a suit, right? I put it on. I can kick harder, I can fly faster, and it gives me the ability to be more agile in my skills, so it’s taking all my skills to a completely different level."
We're still not sure how even a Wakandan suit can make Sam a match for Red Hulk, though it appears to be something everyone involved with the movie has taken into account based on this and past interviews.
