Despite 2024 having a more limited output of comic book action than usual, the schedule of upcoming Marvel movies will be picking up before we know it. Captain America: Brave New World will be the title that welcomes us all back to the MCU once again, and it has already turned heads thanks Harrison Ford being added to the Captain America 4 cast . That decision, according to the franchise vet known for roles in both the Star Wars and Indiana Jones universes, comes with yet another totally on brand explanation from Ford himself.

As part of the festivities from this summer’s San Diego ComicCon, The Official Marvel Podcast spoke with several cast members who will be seen at work in the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s near future. In his own opinion, here’s more on why Harrison Ford decided to play the superhero game in his own way: I had watched other actors, brilliant actors have a wonderful time. I'm not a brilliant actor, but I thought I might have a good time.

I'm delighted by what we've done. The movie's gonna..

. kick ass. Part self-deprecating gag and part enthusiastic call to action, Ford’s latest reaction to his Marvel Studios gig stokes the fires of anticipation for the first Anthony Mackie -led Captain America movie.

It's also a firm reminder that the Academy Award nominee isn't above showing himself as anything but human. Almost 20 years of activity have seen both leading roles and the best cameos in the MCU occupied by performers of such stature as Sir Anthony Hop.
