Ramsey Avery, the production designer on Captain America: New World Order, has teased that the forthcoming sequel will have a "very grounded" and realistic tone, compared to the newer MCU films, hinting that the film will deviate from space-jumping, time-traveling, and the abstract tone of the more recent movies.
Avery made this revelation during a recent interview with Collider, where he also talked about his work on Amazon's Rings of Power and compared both projects.
According to him, the two productions are similar in that they both have established backstories. He went on to state that the backstories are present in other places apart from the movies.
In his words, "Not only within the movies themselves now, but there's also still the parts and pieces that they choose from publishing to feed into all of that."
Speaking on Captain America 4, which somesources have said will get a title change, Avery stated Marvel is approaching the film in a different, more "forward-thinking" way. He revealed that the production team intends for the film "to be very grounded" such that it portrays the feeling it is "happening in the world."
