“Captain America: Brave New World” is not satisfied Glue a continuation in its end creditsHe also includes a “special thank you” to a beloved actor. Is it Star Anthony Mackie, or the MVP “Brave New World” Harrison Ford? No, it’s someone who doesn’t even play in the film. Assumptions?
It was Octavia Spencer, who played in the previous film of the director “Captain America 4” Julius Onah “Luce”. Speaking to People magazine, Onah revealed why he thanked Spencer alongside his real family and the Stan Lee Foundation. According to Onah, he may not have made the film if she had not helped her. He explained:
“Octavia is the biggest. I’m so fan of hers, and when the conversation was had about this film, she put kind words for me with Kevin Feige and had spoken to [Anthony] Mackie too. It’s just a really nice and incredibly talented human being, and I really wanted to recognize how much she was a great supporter of me and other filmmakers in the past. There was no way that I was going to miss the opportunity to thank him. “”
“Brave New World” did not get the best reviewsNor his latest genre film “The Cloverfield Paradox”. Onah’s work on “Luce”, by far his best film, proves that his talent can be better served by smaller but more significant and more significant films focused on the actor.
Octavia Spencer has already played a key role in Luce de Julius Onah
Octavia Spencer acts professionally since the 1990s, but she became a familiar name in 2012 after her Oscar -winning performance in “The Help” in 2011. This film, according to black women working as servants in the 1960s, Mississippi, won Criticism (even of his own star Bryce Dallas Howard) for failing of its supposed progressivism. How much Spencer later appropriated in “Luce” which criticizes the limits of white saviors as liberators.
“Luce” bears the name of his main character (Kelvin Harrison Jr., in one of the 10 films he played between 2018 and 2019). Luce is a former child soldier from Eritrea who was adopted by Amy and Peter Edgar (Naomi Watts and Tim Roth) – now he is a star athlete and a student with a brilliant future. Until his professor Harriet Wilson (Spencer) reads a test of Luce and disturbed sharing. In his writings, Luce praises the Afro-Caribbean revolutionary Frantz Fanon and his arguments that sometimes violence is necessary for social change.
Harriet supervises his concern to the Edgars that Luce is always traumatized, and not completely deprogrammed, of his childhood spent in war. But when Luce and Harriet start a cat and mouse game, it becomes clear that it tries to train it in what is acceptable for a “model minority” before losing this position.
After all, Luce is SO Accepted by Blanche, he is literally part of the family. Harrison even looks like the favorite black man of each white liberal, former president Barack Obama, and I am sure that it was not a casting accident. But renting black revolutionaries, who fought for a systematic change that would destroy racial hierarchies? It is a non-no, too scary even for well-intentioned whites like Edgars. Onah and Spencer’s work on “Luce” highlights how “Brave New World” explores the experience of being black in America.
“Captain America: Brave New World” is currently playing in theaters.
