The Hollywood Reporter has announced that Julius Onah will direct the film for Marvel Studios. Onah, a Nigerian-American filmmaker, is perhaps best known for his work on The Cloverfield Paradox, as well as the critically acclaimed Luce. Captain America 4 will serve as Onah’s biggest film project to date.
Captain America 4, which was announced shortly after The Falcon and the Winter Soldier ended, is being penned Malcolm Spellman, the head writer of The Falcon and the Winder Soldier, and Dalan Musson, a staff writer on the show. As of now, no start date has been announced for the upcoming film.
The film will see Anthony Mackie return as the shield-wielding hero after taking over the Captain America mantle in the Disney+ series. While previous reports suggested Chris Evans might be returning to the Marvel Cinematic Universe for an undisclosed project, it remains to be seen whether or not the project is Captain America 4. In recent weeks, Evans has suggested a return as Steve Rogers is unlikely, as he is content with how his character’s story ended, so it seems unlikely he’ll return for Captain America 4 as of now.
A release date for Captain America 4, which still lacks an official title, has not yet been announced.
