"Captain America: Brave New World Among Shortest MCU Films"

Mar 26,2025 Author: Grace

"Captain America: Brave New World" marks a significant departure from its predecessors in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) by being the shortest Captain America film to date. Clocking in at just one hour and 58 minutes, it stands as one of the briefest entries in the entire MCU catalog, ranking as the seventh shortest out of 35 films. This runtime is notably under the two-hour mark, contrasting with the previous Captain America movies, all of which exceeded this duration.

The trend of shorter films in the MCU is not new, with many of the briefer entries originating from Phase 1 and Phase 2. However, recent additions like "The Marvels" in 2022, which runs for one hour and 45 minutes, have continued this pattern. Other notably short MCU films include "The Incredible Hulk," "Thor: The Dark World," "Thor," "Doctor Strange," and "Ant-Man."

"Brave New World" shares its runtime with "Ant-Man and The Wasp," both at one hour and 58 minutes. In stark contrast, the longest MCU film, "Avengers: Endgame," runs for three hours and one minute, followed by "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever," "Eternals," and "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3."

As "Brave New World" approaches its release date of February 14, it has reportedly undergone significant rewrites and reshoots, including scenes involving WWE star Seth Rollins. The impact of these changes on the film's runtime remains unclear.

This installment introduces a new era for the Captain America series, featuring Anthony Mackie as Sam Wilson stepping into the role previously held by Chris Evans' Steve Rogers. Mackie has emphasized that the film will uphold the series' tradition of delivering a grounded, espionage-driven narrative.

Moreover, "Brave New World" is poised to introduce fans to deep-cut characters from Marvel lore, including the long-awaited appearance of The Leader, a character teased in "The Incredible Hulk," and the introduction of Red Hulk, adding layers of excitement and anticipation for the film.
