Captain America: Brave New World’s first trailer has finally arrived, but the inclusion of one controversial Marvel character has got people calling for the fanbase to boycott the movie.
In Avengers: Endgame, Steve Rogers passed the shield to Sam Wilson. In The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, he wrestled with the weight of the role, before finally taking on the mantle.
From theCaptain America: Brave New Worldtrailer, it seems thenew moviefollows Anthony Mackie’s hero as he gets to grips with his new role – and that means building a relationship with President “Thunderbolt” Ross (Harrison Ford).
However, while fans are losing their minds over the last-second glimpse ofRoss’ Red Hulk, backlash is already brewing regarding one character:Sabra.
In the Marvel comics, Sabra is an Israeli mutant superhero who works for the Mossad. She’ll appear in Brave New World, played by Shira Haas, and it seems she’ll be more of an ordinary government agent in theupcoming Marvel movie.
“The audacity to put her in the trailer multiple times… y’all better boycott this sh*t,” one usertweeted. “Unless Sabra is different I won’t be seeing this in theaters sadly,” anotherwrote.
“Seeing nasty ass Sabra in there just p*sses me off. I’m really hoping she’s just there for action scenes or something because otherwise I just won’t watch it in theaters,” a thirdtweeted.
“Fking hate that they put sabra in this movie because this looks actually good,” a fourthwrote. “Wow this looks great… unfortunately I’m not watching bc fk Sabra,” a fifthposted.
