The first episode of The Falcon and The Winter Soldier includes an Easter egg for Isaiah Bradley, the first Black Captain America, in the credits.
An easter egg in The Falcon and the Winter SoldierThe credits of alicia introduces the first Black Captain America of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The new Disney + show events from Marvel Studios started at the end of Avengers: Endgame. An old Steve Rogers returned to the present day and gave the Captain America shield to Sam Wilson, also known as Falcon. This signaled to viewers that he would become the new Captain America at the MCU, but his journey to accept the mantle will not be an easy one.
The first episode of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier confirmed that Sam voluntarily gave up on the shield. He felt that the shield did not belong to him and that the world would be fine without Captain America. However, the United States government had a different idea. John Walker was announced as the new face of America’s superheroes. Sam is understandably dissatisfied with this decision, but it will allow The Falcon and the Winter Soldier to explore the history of Captain America’s shield and mantle. This will inevitably end with Falcon officially becoming the new Captain America of the MCU, but the show is provoking the involvement of the first Black Captain America.

The Falcon and the Winter SoldierThe first episode of did not include an extra scene, but the credits still managed to include provocations for what is to come. At the 43:33 mark in the episode, part of a search log for an experimental subject is shown. The document does not include a name for the individual shown, but it is referred to as “Subject # 07656” and viewers can see part of his face. The face is of the actor Carl Lumbly, who did not appear in The Falcon and the Winter Soldierfirst episode, but is confirmed to appear in the series. When Lumbly was cast, rumors circulated that he could play Isaiah Bradley, the original Black Captain America in the comics and now appears to be confirmed with this provocation.
Isaiah Bradley was introduced to the Marvel universe in 2003 Truth: Red, White and Blue, a limited series of seven editions that told the unknown story of the military’s attempts to recreate the Super Soldier Serum. History reveals that the army forced 300 black soldiers to be the guinea pigs for the experiments. The government told all the families of those involved that they died in battle, although almost all died during the trials. Isaiah Bradley was one of the few to survive and prepared himself as Captain America for his final mission. This was not part of the army’s plan, however, and Bradley was sentenced to life in prison for stealing Captain America’s costume and shield. He served his seventeen-year sentence before being granted full pardon and vowed to keep it secret.
The Easter egg credits in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier it is a clear sign that the man portrayed is Isaiah Bradley. Your subject number refers to your participation in the experiments to create a new Super Soldier program. However, if the number assigned to Bradley is a sign of how the MCU tells its story, it looks like they will make the cover even bigger with more than 7,000 participants. Bradley may still be one of the few to survive the experiments. The Falcon and the Winter Soldier it may even reveal that he took on the mantle of Captain America in the last days of World War II or change his story a little to potentially place Isaiah in the Korean War or the Vietnam War.
With The Falcon and the Winter Soldier already leading to the inclusion of Isaiah Bradley, he must have an important role to play with regard to the direction of history. He could help convince Sam to take on the mantle, especially if he is responsible for telling Sam about the thousands of black men who died so that America could create a new wave of super soldiers. The restart of a Super Soldier program may also be the way Isaiah crosses Sam and Bucky’s path. They can find you while looking for information about the history of Super Soldiers in America. Fortunately, it won’t be long before Isaiah Bradley appears in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier.
