Captain America's triumphant return marks his first solo film in almost a decade! A mainstay of the MCU since Phase One, he now leads Phase Five's Brave New World, fourteen years later. This marks the first Captain America movie without Steve Rogers (Chris Evans) wielding the shield; Sam Wilson (Anthony Mackie), inheriting the mantle in Avengers: Endgame, takes center stage.
For those eager to refresh their memory or experience the full Captain America MCU saga before Brave New World, we've compiled a chronological viewing list of his films and TV series.
Captain America's MCU Appearances:
There are eight MCU films and one TV series featuring Captain America prominently. This excludes non-MCU productions.
