Will every episode have a major set piece like this one? It’s certainly well done and wastes no time getting Marvel fans who miss their blockbusters into well-directed action. Opening with a ten-minute aerial-combat sequence sets expectations for high-flying action in this series. It’s designed to remind viewers of Falcon’s skill set, which hinges on lightning-fast reflexes and quick thinking, and to introduce them to Lieutenant Torres (Danny Ramirez), Falcon’s “boots on the ground” who tracks the hijacking and will later warn Falcon of the threat posed by the Flag Smashers. soldier from the claws of Georges Batroc (Georges St-Pierre) and takes place high above the ground with Falcon speeding through valleys and dodging missiles. Set near the Libyan border, it features a mission to rescue a U.S. It’s interesting that this important plot point about Sam essentially remaining Falcon instead of becoming Cap follows an extensive action sequence, running nearly ten minutes long, in which Falcon shows off very different skills from Mr. His first line, about the shield, is “It’s someone else’s.” Will The Falcon and the Winter Soldier be the story of Sam realizing the shield is his, too? War Machine (Don Cheadle), says to try to convince Sam otherwise. The shield belonged to Steve Rogers, so it will sit in the Smithsonian, no matter what Rhodey, a.k.a.

Remember, at the end of Avengers: Endgame, an older Cap, having lived a very different life than he did previously, hands off his shield to Sam as Bucky looks on approvingly. Where Sam is in his character arc allows the writers to lean into the fact that this is a supporting player who has been thrust into the spotlight by receiving the burden of Captain America’s shield and all it means to the world.

Turning supporting characters into leads can be more challenging than it looks. And both men will be challenged by the rise of a terrorist organization known as the Flag Smashers, who just want to see the world burn. As Bucky Barnes continues to wrestle with his personal responsibility for death and destruction, Sam Wilson wrestles with his place in a world without Captain America as well as the pressure to become him. Falcon can fly and blow up things! Winter Soldier used to be a ruthless killing machine! Who is Captain America now?!?! To be fair, it also sets up some potentially big themes, including anarchy and responsibilities both personal and patriotic.

The truth is the premiere of the megabudget series (reportedly as high as $25 million an episode) doesn’t do much beyond reintroducing the action aesthetics of these previously supporting characters, but that’s really all fans should expect from what is basically a prologue to a much bigger story. Disney+ decided to drop only one episode of its new prestige MCU miniseries The Falcon and the Winter Soldier today, leaving almost as many questions unanswered as there were yesterday.
