Interview: Captain America: Brave New World’s director discusses the reshoots, cut characters and more!

With Thunderbolts* currently bringing MCU back in a big way (though on the smaller end), Marvel is getting ready to release their prior film on Physical Media and digital. The narrative around Captain America: Brave New World‘s reshoots has been the topic of discussion for years at this point. Was it a complete disaster that Marvel had to take over? Or was it standard practice that most of these big budget films go through? We were recently given the opportunity to get into it all, as we sat down with the director. You can check it out in the embedded video above!

I was lucky enough to talk to director Julius Onah in support of the film’s Physical/Digital release. Julius was very open about how much the reshoots on the film were blown out of proportion and how he tried to not let the media narrative get to him. Though I made sure to express my disappointment in losing Rosa Salazar as Diamondback. With Marvel being what Marvel is, they could easily bring back the Serpent Society (which was cut from the final film) so chances of us seeing that footage feels rather slim at this point.
