Marvel spin-off series The Falcon And The Winter Soldier has released new posters and teaser ahead of its premiere on Disney+.
Marvel has released four new character posters for the upcoming series including Anthony Mackie as Sam Wilson aka The Falcon and Sebastian Stan as Bucky Barnes aka The Winter Soldier, while the two other posters showcase Daniel Brühl as Zemo and Emily VanCamp as Sharon Carter.
In the teaser, the call for “new heroes” is put out, and we see Sam and Bucky in action and debating whether they’re a team, partners, or co-workers.
Here’s the new footage –
One of the questions leading into The Falcon And The Winter Soldier is Falcon the new Captain America, will be explained.
Mackie has left it open as to whether he has really taken on the mantle, even though it appears that Steve Rogers bestowed the honor upon him at the end of Avengers: Endgame. Talking on the Jess Cagle Show on SiriusXM, Mackie said –
“The idea of the show, basically. At the end of Avengers: Endgame, Cap retired and asked me to take up the shield. But at no point did I agree to or say that I would be Captain America,”
“So, the show walks the line of ‘Who’s gonna take up the shield and who’s gonna be Captain America, if Steve [Rogers] isn’t coming back?'”
“People are like, ‘you’re Captain America,’ and like, that’s not true. If you look at the end of Endgame, Sam never accepts the shield. You don’t know who Captain America is going to be.”
Before The Falcon And The Winter Soldier arrives, Marvel Studios will debut the documentary series Assembled, which goes behind the scenes of Marvel movies and TV shows. It will kick off with the making of WandaVision on March 12th. When The Falcon And The Winter Soldier completes its six-episode run, it will also be given its own episode of Assembled.
The Falcon And The Winter Soldier will start streaming on Disney+ on Friday, March 19th.
