Summary
- Captain America: Brave New World is projected to open with $86-$95M during Presidents Day weekend, aiming for $100M+.
- The film heavily relies on strong late-stage marketing, positive reviews, and word-of-mouth for box office success.
- Fans are skeptical due to reshoots and negative test screenings, but early projections suggest potential success.
Captain America: Brave New World box office predictions are in, and Marvel Studios may have reason to believe its winning streak isn’t over. However, Captain America 4 may need to rely on one thing to become a box office success.
Captain America: Brave New World marks Anthony Mackie’s first feature film in the titular role since Chris Evans’ Steve Rogers passed the shield on to Sam Wilson/Falcon in 2019’s Avengers: Endgame. While the Captain America films have been successes for Marvel Studios, the MCU’s days of guaranteed box office hits are seemingly over. Deadpool and Wolverine and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 were box office wins. Still, Marvel Studios suffered a series of box office disappointments or bombs with films such as The Marvels, Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, Eternals, and more. However, Captain America: Brave New World box office projections have arrived, and Marvel Studios has reason to believe this won’t be another box office bomb.

Deadline reports that Captain America: Brave New World box office projections via the tracking service Quorum indicate the film is expected to open with $86 million to $95M over the 3-day of the 4-day Presidents Day weekend. That figure jumps to over $100 million when factoring in the Friday through Monday numbers. While this would be well behind Captain America: Civil War‘s $179.1 million 3-day opening weekend (which benefited from an Avengers-size cast that featured Robert Downey Jr.), it is on par with Captain America: The Winter Soldier‘s $95 million 3-day debut. Box Office Theory predicts a domestic total of $195-280 million.
According to Quorum, Captain America: Brave New World has the most awareness of movies opening in February 2025, including Paddington in Peru, which releases in the U.S. on the same weekend. Regarding awareness numbers, Captain America: Brave New World is strongest with men, particularly those over 35, and women under 35 are close by. Box Office Theory posits that because audiences haven’t reliably returned to theaters for the last MCU movies, Captain America: Brave New World will depend on strong late-stage marketing, positive reviews, and good word-of-mouth from early screening reactions to perform well at the box office when it debuts. This suggestion is likely on the money, as many fans already predict Captain America: Brave New World will be bad.
These low expectations largely stem from reports that Captain America: Brave New World has undergone significant changes since production started. While it isn’t unusual for a Hollywood blockbuster to undergo additional photography, reports claim these reshoots were required after Captain America: Brave New World‘s negative test screenings. This has caused fans to assume the film has insurmountable behind-the-scenes problems, with the most recent reshoots reportedly occurring as late as November 2024, roughly 3 months before Captain America: Brave New World‘s theatrical release.
Mackie tried to debunk claims that Captain America: Brave New World reshoots significantly changed the film, but some fans are still skeptical. WWE Champion Seth Rollins even confirmed his role was cut after extensive rewrites and reshoots. So, Captain America: Brave New World may have some work to do to gain fan confidence. However, if the early word-of-mouth is strong and these box office projections are correct, perhaps Captain America can prove the doubters wrong.
Captain America: Brave New World will be released in theaters on February 14, 2025.
