The Captain America movies in order are The First Avenger (2011), The Winter Soldier (2014), Civil War (2016) and Brave New World (2025). Chris Evans plays Steve Rogers in the first three. Anthony Mackie leads Brave New World as Sam Wilson.
This list also has two series. Agent Carter follows Peggy Carter after the war. The Falcon and the Winter Soldier shows Sam taking up the shield that Steve hands him at the end of Avengers: Endgame.
Steve also leads the Avengers films, and Civil War is where Spider-Man and Black Panther first appear.
Four: Captain America: The First Avenger (2011), The Winter Soldier (2014), Civil War (2016) and Brave New World (2025).
It helps. Tom Holland's Spider-Man first appears in Civil War, and Homecoming replays the airport fight through Peter's phone video.
After The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. It is Sam Wilson's first movie as Captain America, and it brings back Thaddeus Ross from The Incredible Hulk, now played by Harrison Ford.
