Anthony Mackie introduces Captain America to Avengers Campus
Anthony Mackie brought the transformation of Sam Wilson from Falcon to Captain America to the small screen in Disney+’s “Falcon and Winter Solider” this spring. This newest version of Captain America will now meet and greet guests at Avengers Campus at Disney California Adventure.
Carry Cap’s shield onto the stage during the Avengers Campus opening ceremony Tuesday night, Mackie talked about his role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
“It was an emotional moment for me to be in these films. And, when Sam Wilson finally became Captain America, there was a moment all about the future. A moment where kids of all races can look at Captain America and see a little bit of themselves,” he said.
“I’m so proud to be a part of the cinematic universe and now part of all this. So with that, it is my honor to introduce for the first time at Avengers Campus – Captain America. Captain America belongs at Avengers Campus,” he said.
Not only will this version of Captain America be seen at Avengers Campus, Iron Man, Black Widow, Black Panther and the Dora Milaje, Thor, Loki, the Guardians of the Galaxy, Captain Marvel and Ant-Man and The Wasp will also join the action through the Campus. In addition, Captain Rodgers will also be seen around the campus.
The new land officially opens June 4. Avengers Campus is devoted to discovering, recruiting and training the next generation of Super Heroes. Guests are invited to team up with the Avengers and their allies to live out their Super Hero dreams in this fully immersive land that mixes innovation with storytelling, and fun for all ages. Once guests step into Avengers Campus, they will be part of the action as it unfolds around them and their interactions with the Avengers and their allies.
Guests have the chance to witness Spider-Man swinging into action high above Avengers Campus with gravity-defying, acrobatic feats never seen before in a Disney park. That leads them to the new attraction, WEB SLINGERS: A Spider-Man Adventure, which takes guests on an interactive escapade. Guests will train with Black Panther and Wakanda’s elite guards, the Dora Milaje; team up to save the Guardians of the Galaxy from The Collector’s Fortress; encounter Super Heroes (and villains), and experience the thrills as Avengers hold off their foes and save the day. Those seeking provisions for their next mission will find them at the Pym Test Kitchen.
While exploring Avengers Campus, guests may encounter Iron Man in his new armor, the Mark 80. Ant-Man and The Wasp, along with Okoye, appear for the first time at the Disneyland Resort and Doctor Strange will train recruits in the ways of the mystic arts at an Ancient Sanctum.
