How to Watch the Captain America Movies in Order

Author : Lily Feb 27,2025

Captain America's triumphant return! This week marks the release of his first solo film in almost a decade. A cornerstone of the MCU since Phase One, Captain America now leads us into Phase Five's Brave New World, fourteen years later. This will be the first Captain America movie without Steve Rogers (Chris Evans) wielding the shield; Sam Wilson (Anthony Mackie), inheriting the mantle at the end of Avengers: Endgame, takes center stage.

Planning a Captain America MCU marathon before Brave New World? Here's a chronological viewing guide:

Captain America's MCU Appearances:

There are eight MCU films and one TV series featuring Captain America in a significant role. While the character appears in over 20 films and TV shows across the broader Marvel universe, this list focuses solely on MCU canon.
