The Hall H panel of Marvel Studios at San Diego Comic-Con left us with many titles and news that will arrive in the future of the MCU. One of the upcoming films will star Sam Wilson’s new Captain America, a character whose transformation we could already see in the Disney Plus series Falcon and the Winter Soldier. The tape will let us see an already established and renewed Captain America with his shield and his classic white, red and blue suit with wings, but we still don’t know anything about the possible villain or villain of the film.
5 possible villains of Captain America: New World Order
5. The Agent of Power (Sharon Carter)
In the Falcon and the Winter Soldier series, the fate of Sam Wilson is not the only one that hits a complete turn, and it is that, as the series reveals in its final episode, Sharon Carter has become known as Agent of Power, the person who was secretly making things difficult for them throughout the series.
Fleeing the United States after helping Steve Rogers’ Captain America in Civil War, she took refuge in the crime town of Madripoor, where she amassed great fortune and power and earned this rank. The Agent of Power could make things very difficult for Captain America, whether she’s the main antagonist or she’s in the background.
4. Supreme Hydra (Steve Rogers)
The one known as Hydra Supreme is a version of Steve Rogers from another Earth in which he was a Hydra sleeper agent. Yes, it is true that the history of Steve Rogers in the MCU seems to have completely concluded and it seems that at the moment Chris Evans does not plan to return to Marvel Studios. However, we are in what is already known as the Saga of the Multiverse, and in a multiverse everything is possible, so imagining the possibility of seeing Chris Evans by surprise as Supreme Hydra would not be as far-fetched as it would have seemed two or three years ago.
3. Red Skull
The character’s story also seemed to have come to an end after the events of Captain America: The First Avenger, but Marvel Studios always knows how to catch us off guard and keep a trick up their sleeve. Many fans were absolutely shocked when they heard the Red Skull’s voice in Avengers: Infinity War when Thanos and Gamora were on their way to collect the Mind Stone.
Red Skull was not dead, rather a bit of a space party acting as a protector of the mind stone, and he keeps all the memories of his confrontation with Cap. Now that the gem is gone, will he decide to return to Earth with the help of some alien technology?
2. Baron Zemo
In the UCM, this character has the important title of being one of the few characters to defeat the Avengers, a title that only he and Thanos hold at the moment, so it’s no small thing. Zemo has been one of the most damaging villains to Earth’s heroes and also one of the smartest overall.
We got to see him cooperating with Sam and Bucky in Falcon and the Winter Soldier and he was eventually apprehended by the Dora Milaje, the Wakandan Guardians who wanted him for assassinating their king in Civil War. Escaping Wakanda alone can be tricky, but maybe the next spot on the list will help him with that.
1. The Thunderbolts
The premiere of Captain America: New World Order is scheduled for May 3, 2024, a curious date if we consider that less than 3 months later the Thunderbolts movie will be released. The connection between this group of villains and antiheroes with Cap is quite great, especially if we see how it has begun to form little by little in Falcon and the Winter Soldier with Valentina Allegra de Fontaine recruiting US Agent.
A first appearance of the team in the Cap movie would leave the events fully prepared for the Thunderbolts movie, the government-controlled team that supplants the Avengers, something that would really mean a New World Order for the MCU.
