Captain America: Brave New World’s Surprisingly Short Runtime Is Reportedly Revealed, And I’m Actually Happy About It

Roger Ebert’s wise words of “No good movie is too long, and no bad movie is short enough” are permanently etched in mind, especially when heading into the 2025 movie schedule. That being said, a new development has inspired me to be a bit hypocritical about that doctrine. You can thank an update about the upcoming Captain America: Brave New World for that, as I’m quite pleased that a surprisingly short runtime is reportedly in store for this blockbuster!

That knowledge comes from the official AMC Theatres page for the flick, which now lists Brave New World as running 118 minutes. On the surface, that’s a pretty crisp pace for the right story to play out. But, again, if your Marvel movie sticks the landing at 150 minutes, like James Gunn did with Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, that screening will fly by.

That actually touches upon the major reason I’m happy Captain America: Brave New World has this allegedly svelte time frame. While director Julias Onah’s upcoming Marvel movie is the fourth to carry the Cap brand, it starts off a new story with a new MCU character taking on that storied mantle.

So we’re not quite in reboot country, but one could say a rebranding is pretty close. That’s because Sam Wilson’s tenure with the shield should be a very different story than Steve Rogers’ origins. Judging by the action we’ve seen in the trailer, I have a feeling that the interconnected intrigue will still be present, while also allowing Brave New World to be a total thrill ride.
