Last year, test audiences saw a version of the next Marvel film. It is here that Anthony Mackie will appear in his full glory on the big screen as Captain America for the first time. He took over the role from Chris Evans. However, it looks like “Captain America: Brave New World” may have trouble making up for the money invested in the film. Especially since the producers recently had to pump even more money into it.
They’re doing some reshoots to save the new Captain America movie
After receiving negative reviews and Marvel being disappointed with the reactions from the test screening, the premiere of Julius Onah’s “Captain America: Brave New World” was moved from July this year to February next year. The creators are trying to save the already very expensive production from failure, which is why they added more money and are introducing significant changes. Like World of Reel, Matthew Orton was hired by Marvel in December to write “additional scenes and material.” The team is scheduled to shoot three major action sequences from May to August. There will probably even be quite important characters who were not present in the first version of the film.
All of this costs money. The film already had a fairly large budget – $275 million (it would be the fifth most expensive title of all time). The changes are expected to cost another $75 to even $100 million. The journalist’s source says that it looks like they are shooting a completely new film. And if they really have to spend that much money on it, it would probably be the most expensive film in Marvel’s history. Until now, the leader in this category is “Avengers: Endgame” costing $356 million. However, this one was liked by viewers and critics, earning almost $2.8 billion.
There are more and more comments that the Marvel universe is becoming less and less interesting. Subsequent productions often receive average or poor ratings. Despite this, new titles are constantly being created. One of the newest titles – “Marvels” – earned only $205.8 million and did not break even. It cost $220 million.
