The<\/em> Falcon and the Winter Soldier<\/em> will be Marvel Studios’ first crack at a television series. It’s not coming until Late 2020, but it promises to be just as grand as the films.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Production has started already, and the series’ supporting cast includes Daniel Bruhl as Baron Zemo, Emily VanCamp as Sharon Carter, and newcomer Wyatt Russell as John Walker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At CCXP, Marvel head Kevin Feige talked about what to expect with the upcoming show<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe saw Old Man Cap hand that shield to Sam Wilson at the end of [Endgame<\/em>], and the question is, what did he do with it next,” said Feige. “What does it mean for Sam Wilson and that shield? That\u2019s a big responsibility, and that\u2019s very much what the show focuses on and is about.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s been rumored for a while that Falcon or Winter Soldier would replace Steve Rogers as the new Captain America. Since Steve chose Sam, rather than Bucky, it seems like Falcon will take on the mantle. Both characters have taken on the Cap title in the comics, and it seems like the MCU could go in that direction. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
