Equal to WandaVision, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier takes place post 2019 Avengers: Endgame. Captain America has died, and Anthony Mackie’s Falcon is considering taking up the shield while joining his friend Bucky Barnes, also known as Winter Soldier, played by Sebastian Stan. Series and EP director Kari Skogland explained that films such as canon David Lean and Midnight Cowboy were influences, while for chief scribe and EP Malcolm Spellman, his inspirations for the series came from police films like 48 hours, rush hour and the Bad Boys franchise.
“From the beginning, we were making a six-hour movie,” said Skogland of the six-episode series.
The director explained that when the series ended due to Covid, “we went straight to post-production and continued editing”.
“While the world was changing, we were able to refine our focus. When we got back, we knew what we were going through. It didn’t change anything (in terms of plot), it just helped us focus, ”added Skogland.
Spellman explained that in the post-Thanos world of Avengers: Endgame, “Every villain will say that they are heroes. Heroes are responding to this in their personal lives. “
Stan says about the post-Endgame Winter Soldier world, “The consequences of Steve’s lack threw them (Falcon and Winter Soldier) in opposite corners in terms of facing their lives and their demons. They face different things, but they are in similar places in terms of the questions that are asked. “
Why is Sam Wilson of Mackie so hesitant to get Captain America’s shield?
Essentially, Captain America’s death leaves big shoes behind.
“That’s why he says at the end of Endgame, it looks like someone else’s, ”says Mackie of the shield.
“He was a fan like everyone else,” continued the actor, “Sam Wilson was a normal guy who just won the lottery because Black Widow knocked on his door and needed a place to hide.”
Then, in a blatant provocation, Mackie blurted out today:
“He fell in love and hoped to have a spinoff with the Black Widow.”
It looks like we just have to wait for it Black Widow end of the credit sequence.
If the Marvel timeline stays on track, Black Widow will hit theaters on May 7, while the last episode of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier it will be on April 23rd. The Black Widow died in Endgame, so, if there is a series of spinoffs, it would have to happen in the pre-Endgame. That is, unless the Black Widow is somehow resurrected.
