Marvel fans are buzzing with anticipation after the latest trailer for Captain America: Brave New World dropped at D23 Brazil on Saturday (Nov. 9). The new movie promises high stakes as Sam Wilson (Anthony Mackie) steps into his role as Captain America, navigating a dangerous global crisis after an encounter with President Thaddeus Ross (Harrison Ford). While the action-packed film is set to hit theaters on February 14, 2025, the real chatter among fans has been about a certain WWE Superstar potentially making a surprise appearance.
Enter Seth Rollins. The wrestling star, known for his performances in the ring, has been listed as part of the movie on IMDb, fueling speculation that he might be making his Marvel debut. The rumor mill went into overdrive when eagle-eyed fans thought they spotted Rollins at around the 1:44 mark of the trailer, masked up and ready for action.
But Rollins, always quick to address the buzz, took to social media to clear the air. “Not me, kid. Sorry,” he posted, dashing fans’ hopes that he was featured in the clip. The blunt response left fans wondering whether this is an honest denial or if Rollins is just keeping his true involvement under wraps.
For context, Captain America: Brave New World features a powerhouse cast, including Shira Haas, Xosha Roquemore, Carl Lumbly, Giancarlo Esposito, Liv Tyler, and Tim Blake Nelson. Director Julius Onah is steering the ship for this star-studded project, which has even seen Chris Evans hinting at a possible return as the original Captain America. With all eyes on this next chapter, it’s no wonder Rollins’ rumored role has sparked so much intrigue.
So, is Rollins really not in the trailer, or is he playing coy to keep Marvel’s secrets intact? Fans can’t wait for more answers as the movie’s release date approaches.
