Director Julius Ona of the movie ‘Captain America: Brave New World’ revealed that he referenced the action scenes in director Kim Jee-woon‘s movie ‘A Bittersweet Life’ for the action scenes in this movie.

On the morning of the 5th, a video press conference for the movie ‘Captain America: Brave New World’ was held. Actor Anthony Mackie and director Julius Ona attended the press conference that day.

On that day, Anthony Mackie said about what makes this movie different, “I think the new Captain America suit should show its capabilities to the fullest. All functions have been upgraded. It has functions that surpass those of other superheroes. The fight sequences seem dramatic and exaggerated. With the mindset that the best defense is offense, you will be able to see all defenses turned into offense. Everyone agreed that the new Captain America should be an attacker, not a defender,” he explained.

Director Julius Ona drew attention by revealing that the film includes an homage to the Korean film “A Bittersweet Life.” Director Julius Ona said, “I was inspired by the action in “A Bittersweet Life.” As a fan of Korean films, I’m so happy to be able to express my affection for it.”

Meanwhile, “Captain America: Brave New World” is an action blockbuster that depicts Sam, who finds himself at the center of an international incident after reuniting with President Thaddeus Ross, uncovering the existence and reason behind an evil plot to turn the world red. It will be released on the 12th.
