Singapore was ablaze with excitement as it played host to a dazzling display of celebrity talent at the Disney Content Showcase APAC 2024, held on November 20 at the iconic Marina Bay Sands. Among the attendees were none other than Anthony Mackie, the new Captain America, alongside beloved K-drama stars such as Park Eun-bin, Kim Soo-hyun, Ryu Seung-ryong, and many others.

As fans cheered in delight, Mackie humorously noted the drama of the event, commenting, “That’s the biggest mic I’ve seen,” while holding a whimsical Captain America shield pillow—an amusing nod to his upcoming role in *Captain America: Brave New World*, set to be released next year.

The showcase also highlighted the talents of Kim Da-mi and Son Suk-ku, who discussed their new show, *Nine Puzzles*. “It’s a thrilling mix of drama, action, and mystery that keeps viewers guessing until the very end,” Son shared enthusiastically, promising 11 gripping episodes that will captivate audiences.

Marvel Studios Steals the Show

The spotlight shone bright on Marvel Studios as various upcoming projects were unveiled, including the much-anticipated *What If?* Season 3, *Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man*, *Daredevil: Born Again*, *Ironheart*, *The Fantastic Four: First Steps*, and *Thunderbolts*. A highlight of the event was a surprise virtual appearance by Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige, who connected from Los Angeles and expressed his excitement over the success of *Deadpool* and *Wolverine*, which is now the highest-grossing R-rated film of all time.

Feige delighted fans with an anecdote about Hugh Jackman’s triumphant return as Wolverine, donning his iconic yellow suit, leading to palpable excitement within the audience. His enthusiasm culminated when he showcased a Fantastic Four cap, prompting loud cheers from the crowd.

Mackie, with his characteristic charisma, recounted the moment he learned he would step into Captain America's shoes while at Chris Evans' house. “We were watching football, and Chris took me into his basement and revealed the last two pages of *Avengers: Endgame*. We hugged and jumped around. It was surreal!”

As a playful nod to future roles, Mackie mentioned his desire to tackle the character of a “badass Incredible Hulk” if given the opportunity.

Sneak Peeks from Other Pixar and Lucasfilm Projects

The evening continued with an exclusive preview of *The Amateur*, featuring Academy Award winner Rami Malek, and insights into a Bob Dylan biopic titled *A Complete Unknown*, starring Timothée Chalamet. Pixar showcased a lineup of exciting projects, including *Elio*, *Hoppers*, *Toy Story 5*, and *Incredibles 3*, along with a first look at two new Disney+ series: *Dream Productions* and *Win Or Lose*.

As if the excitement couldn’t be contained, fans learned that Din Djarin and Grogu from *The Mandalorian* will hit the big screen in 2026. Writers Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni shared a tantalizing video message, promising an epic adventure ahead.

The evening concluded with insights from *Light Shop*’s director Kim Hee-won and writer Kangfull, discussing how the series expands upon the original webtoon to create a richer narrative experience.
