As the MCU introduces a new generation of heroes, fan comparisons to original characters remain prevalent. Anthony Mackie, promoting "Captain America: Brave New World," articulated that Captain America's essence is rooted in values like honor and integrity, rather than the concept of America itself. His comments sparked discussions, leading him to reaffirm his pride in representing Captain America while emphasizing the universality of the character's traits. Chris Evans, the original Captain America, similarly highlighted that the character's story transcends nationalistic themes, advocating for a more inclusive interpretation of heroism.
"Captain America represents a lot of different things and I don't think the term, you know, 'America' should be one of those representations. It's about a man who keeps his word, who has honor, dignity, and integrity."
"Let me be clear about this, I'm a proud American and taking on the shield of a hero like CAP is the honor of a lifetime. I have the utmost respect for those who serve and have served our country."
