He died last March William Hurt at 71 years old. He had a career full of memorable roles behind him and one of them was that of General Thaddeus ‘Thunderbolt’ Ross, whom he had first played in The incredible Hulk of 2008. As much as the film starring Edward Norton was then considered a misstep for the Marvel Universe, Hurt (as well as other actors such as, later, Tim Roth in the role of Abomination) remained in the franchise, and he returned to play it in Captain America: Civil War either black widow, which in 2021 would be the last MCU movie where he would participate. But there are still plans for Ross, so a relief was imposed.

Of course, this time it will not be the original Captain America either, because the Steve Rogers of Chris Evans retired in Avengers: Endgame and a whole series had to be reversed, Falcon and the Winter Soldier, to find a successor. This was, of course, Sam Wilson, aka Falcon, played by Anthony Mackie and recently promoted to Captain America.

New World Order is conceived as a prelude to Thunderbolts preparing Jake Schreier as long as suicide squad Marvel, and both kept their release date during a recent adjustment in the calendars that postponed Dead Pool 3, Blade either Avengers: Secret Wars.
