Captain America: Brave New World actor Anthony Mackie is keeping his light-hearted feud with Marvel Cinematic Universe co-star Tom Holland alive.
The Sam Wilson/Falcon/Captain America actor seemingly hasn’t forgotten about the time Holland roasted him for not having his own MCU movie. While on The Official Marvel Podcast, Mackie made sure to tell the MCU fandom that Brave New World will be better than any movie starring Holland they might have seen, including his Spider-Man trilogy.
“Well, he’s Cap. Finally,” Mackie shared with a laugh. “Now we see him running missions on his own and trying to figure out where he fits into the whole world. This is way better than any of Tom Holland’s movies,” he added, before deciding to get one final jab in by reminding fans that his movie, unlike the Spider-Man trilogy, will also “have Harrison Ford!”

Captain America: Brave New World will mark Mackie’s first time leading a Marvel Cinematic Universe movie as Captain America after assuming the mantle in the series finale of the 2021 Disney+ limited series, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. In addition to continuing storylines from the limited series, the fourth Captain America movie will also serve as a stealth sequel to the 2008 movie, The Incredible Hulk, revealing to fans what Tim Blake Nelson’s The Leader has been up over the last decade or two.
Brave New World will also bring back two other Incredible Hulk characters: Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross, portrayed by Ford, succeeding the late William Hurt in the role, and Betty Ross, with Liv Tyler reprising her role from the 2008 movie.
