Marvel is ready for a new installment of Captain America and looks like 'The Falcon and The Winter Soldier' showrunner Malcolm Spellman is going to pick the shield&nbsp;again.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the head writer and creator of Disney+ and Marvel’s recently concluded series, is developing a fourth installment of the Captain America film franchise. Spellman will co-write the script with Dalan Musson, a staff writer on Falcon and the Winter Soldier.

No castings for the project has been done but if the finale of the series is kept in mind, looks like Sam Wilson will be the one manning the shield along with James Barnes.

The feature is likely to continue the story of Sam Wilson, played by Anthony Mackie, and the current wielder of the shield. But as the writers get to work, it will be interesting to see how the story unfolds with there now being multiple people who have been Captain Americas in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

No director is attached, and Evans’ involvement/return remains unconfirmed.

Falcon and the Winter Soldier, which also stars Sebastian Stan as Bucky Barnes/the Winter Soldier, has earned strong critical and fan reaction. Spellman assembled a nearly all-Black writers room for the series, which has been praised for bringing the Black experience to the forefront quite unlike any other superhero film or TV show.

The series premiered March 19 to what Disney+ said was its biggest series debut audience ever, topping popular shows such as Marvel’s WandaVision and Lucasfilm’s The Mandalorian.

Spellman was previously a writer/co-executive producer on Fox’s Empire and also acted as a consulting producer on crime drama Truth Be Told before getting the chance to take the lead on Falcon.&nbsp;

**The post contains spoilers** 
 
The much-anticipated finale of Marvel and Disney+’s ‘The Falcon and The Winter Soldier’ is here and delivers on all that was promised and more in the bubble wrap of patent Captain America morality. The shadow of stripe and stars loom over the finale in the best way possible, culminating in the storylines of Sam Wilson and James Barnes, letting them live their chosen destiny.&nbsp;

The final episode sees the face-off between The Falgsmashers, the Power-broker, John Walker along with ‘The Black Captain America’ and ‘The Winter Soldier’. While the finale might not be as power-packed as the fans expectations (considering Sam was donning the Wkandian design of Captain’s suit and the shield), it was packed in all the emotions Steve Rogers’ would have approved of.&nbsp;

Owning up to his identity as Steve’s protege, Sam is ready to accept the shield without shedding off his wings and Branes is ready to own up to his identity of Winter Soldier without the baggage it brings from the past. Owning up to the identity had been the underlying theme of the entire six-episode series and looking at the finale, it all fits in seamlessly. By the looks of it, the endplate of the series showing ‘Captain America and The Winter Soldier’ clarifies the doubt that going forward, Marvel has a name for both these characters in the Universe, be it the movies of another season.&nbsp;

Talking about the future, a lot is teased in the finale. From the setting up of ‘The Dark Avengers’ with Zemo in the super-prison Raft, and John Walker accepting his new identity as US Agent, the stage is set for Valentina Allegra de la Fontaine and her team of twisted ‘Avengers’. As for Sharon Carter aka Power Broker aka Agent Carter, looks like the series has found another grey character. While the build-up to her being the Power Broker from Madripur, didn’t come across as a surprise, her new role in the MCU is surely going to betray the trust of Sam and James.&nbsp;

A lot was said and done in the 45 minutes episode. All moral messaging to remind each of their purpose. ‘The Falcon and The Winter Soldier’ garnered all the praise for being relevant in the current fight if racial discrimination and judgement in the United States, Sam Wilson’s taking up the shield, established the intention. ‘No super-serum, no blonde hair, no blue eyes’, just a heart to do what’s right. The show asks some really hard-hitting questions, plays on some established Marvel cliches, but more importantly gives a sense of completion while keeping the door to something unimaginable open.&nbsp;

Bucky and Sam are a great team and their adventures have just gotten started. With the realm of magic being tested with the upcoming movies and series of Marvel, ‘The Falcon and The Winter Soldier’ stay true to the human aspect of the bigger fights - the purpose of it all and claiming the identity through work and not just by chance. After the magical chaos of&nbsp;'WandaVision'&nbsp;and before the magical mischief of&nbsp;'Loki', that is exactly what the MCU fans needed as a reminder - the humans are grey and its the present actions that define the future, not the legacy of the past.

'The Falcon and The Winter Soldier' finale review: A moral battle of identity, purpose and legacy 

Fans of 'The Falcon and The Winter Soldier'&nbsp;were given a treat from Marvel in the form of an hour-long video of Baron Zemo grooving to the beat.&nbsp;

Played by Daniel Brühl, last week’s episode involved Baron Zemo’s return as he helped the heroes on a mission. In the episode, Zemo blends in with the crowd of Madripoor on the dance floor.&nbsp;

With an unwavering facial expression, Zemo’s dance moves have been extended and packed in a one-hour video called “The Zemo Cut.” The fans asked for it, and Marvel delivered.

When fans heard that that three seconds of Zemo dancing was actually shot longer, the demand ensued.&nbsp;

“It was a long dance,” Brühl told EW. “There’s more to it, but they cut this little moment [for the show].”

And before it could turn into a full-fledged movement, Marvel decided to release the full cut for the series fans.&nbsp;

The second episode of 'The Falcon and The Winter Soldier' centers around the different truths&nbsp;presented to a white man and a black man.&nbsp;

Amidst Sam Wilson (Anthony Mackie) and Bucky Barnes’ (Sebastian Stan) efforts to take down the Flag-Smashers, they discover the border-breaking organization comprises supersoldiers. This leads Bucky to reveal a secret to Sam, one he kept even from Steve Rogers: America had another supersoldier that it used, and later abused, during the Korean War: Isaiah Bradley.&nbsp;

So what is the truth behind Isaiah? In 2003, Marvel Comics published 'Truth: Red, White &amp; Black', a miniseries written by the late Robert Morales and illustrated by Kyle Baker. It was then revealed that Steve Rogers was not the first, or only, soldier to undergo Project Rebirth during World War II. The US government experimented on 300 Black soldiers in an attempt to re-create the supersoldier serum in 1942. What eventually became the supersoldier serum was originally intended to cull “less desirable” bloodlines, sterilizing ethnic groups and people with disabilities. The research later became the basis for the Nazis’ eugenics experiments.

According to Hollywood Reporter, Morales posited that the US government and the Nazis had more in common than most would care to believe and that both systems are a business founded on class control for the benefit of the white and wealthy. Following the death of his squadmates who’d also survived the experiments and body horror that came with them, Isaiah Bradley became the government’s weapon, facing all the obstacles but receiving none of the glory that Steve Rogers received. And when the government was done with Bradley, they imprisoned him for 17 years for stealing Captain America’s uniform. They sterilized him and harvested his sperm and blood for further experiments, while denying him the treatment required for the side effects of the serum, leaving him with the mental capabilities of a child when he was eventually pardoned in the ’70s.

In the Marvel world, Truth was deemed controversial as many believed that it ruined Steve Rogers’ legacy, as well as racists incensed by the powerful image of a Black man clad in the Captain America uniform. Unlike Marvel's other work, Truth was also brutal and tragic. &nbsp;

As per Hollywood Reporter, Morales’ career at Marvel, and work on the ongoing Captain America comic, was cut short by the controversy that followed him. Christopher Priest and Joe Bennett introduced the son of Isaiah Bradley, Josiah X, in summer 2003, immediately after Truth reached its conclusion. In 2005, Allan Heinberg and Jim Cheung introduced Elijah Bradley, the grandson of Isaiah who took up the role of the Patriot as a member of the Young Avengers.

When Disney purchased Marvel in 2009, Truth went out of print and hasn’t been republished since, though it was recently released digitally on Marvel Unlimited and ComiXology as of last year. Josiah X hasn’t appeared since 2004, Elijah Bradley since 2012, and a new character, Rayshaun Lucas, has taken up the mantle of Patriot. A decade after it debuted, Truth became a hard-to-find collector’s item, the Black Captain America, a piece of little-known trivia, and the character’s name and the legacy left largely unmentioned in the pages of Marvel Comics. Robert Morales died at age 55 in 2013.

The latest episode of the Falcon and the Winter Soldier is the first significant mention of Isaiah Bradley in a Marvel property in nearly a decade. Portrayed by Carl Lumbly, Isaiah Bradley is revealed to have served the US government during the Korean War, leading to a fight with the Winter Soldier that cost Barnes half his metal arm. Though their reunion is brief, Bradley clearly remembers his encounter with Barnes, and still has much of his physical prowess, though clearly no love for the government that experimented on and imprisoned him. The encounter gets to the root of Sam’s hesitation to take up the mantle of Captain America. Later in the episode, Sam brings forth his side as to why he chose to give up the shield, bestowed upon him by Cap himself. How conflicted he feels about representing America, when he is yet to forgive the nation for its treatment and prejudices for a black man.&nbsp;

Right after Sam and Bucky leave Isaiah's house, cops pull up and ask Sam for the ID. The scene very well presents the reality of times and the fact that a Disney show, that stayed away from the controversy surrounding its favourite superhero, made a deliberate attempt to understand the life and pains of a Black hero.&nbsp; 
 
Given the nature of the super serum and its anti-aging effects, we have to wonder if Bradley, who does look much older than Rogers or Barnes, was given the supersoldier serum before Rogers was. Bucky may not have met him until the Korean War, but that doesn’t mean Isaiah Bradley didn’t exist as a supersoldier until then, especially if we consider how hesitant the government was to use Steve Rogers as anything more than a mascot until he took action himself. A Black man with the supersoldier serum who could serve as neither a mascot nor a hero would’ve likely been kept off the table until he could have been used in secrecy, without the pomp and prestige of being America’s star-spangled man.&nbsp;

‘The Falcon and the Winter Soldier’ moves towards a less-chartered direction of superhero racism and prejudices 

Marvel's second series from Phase 4, 'The Falcon and The Winter Soldier premiered recently on Disney+. While the fans are anticipating a lot of thrill and action given the history of the two lead characters, the co-creator of 'Winter Soldier' has mixed feelings.&nbsp; 
 
<a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/the-falcon-and-the-winter-soldier-review-the-first-episode-is-all-about-redemptions-re-adjustments-and-replacements-371658" hreflang="en">'The Falcon and The Winter Soldier' review: The first episode is all about redemptions, re-adjustments, and replacements</a> 
 
Winter Soldier co-creator Ed Brubaker admitted in a newsletter that he has “mixed feelings” about the show and his role as a character creator, as reported by Variety.

“Everyone at Marvel Studios that I’ve ever met (all the way up to Kevin Feige) have been nothing but kind to me… but at the same time, for the most part, all Steve Epting and I have gotten for creating the Winter Soldier and his storyline is a ‘thanks’ here or there, and over the years that’s become harder and harder to live with,” he explained in his newsletter.

Brubaker and Epting’s Winter Soldier first debuted in the 'Captain America #1'&nbsp;comic in 2004. In the new series, Anthony Mackie plays Falcon and Sebastian Stan reprises the role of Winter Soldier/ Bucky Barnes. Brubaker praised the two actors and the kindness of everyone he has met at Marvel Studios, acknowledging the upside of his writing career.

“So yeah, mixed feeling[s], and maybe it’ll always be like that (but I sure hope not). Work-for-hire work is what it is, and I’m honestly thrilled to have co-created something that’s become such a big part of pop culture,” he wrote.

Still, he asserted that gratitude may not be enough.

“I have a great life as a writer and much of it is because of Cap and the Winter Soldier bringing so many readers to my other work,” Brubaker wrote. “But I also can’t deny feeling a bit sick to my stomach sometimes when my inbox fills up with people wanting comments on the show.”

Brubaker and Epting each have a writing credit for the first episode of the series, as do other character creators like Gene Colan and Stan Lee, who created The Falcon.

“I’m sure I’ll watch it, and you should too if you’re a Marvel movie universe fan, but I’ll probably be waiting a while to check it out myself. So please don’t email me any spoilers, I guess, but go give Sebastian Stan lots of love wherever he is online,” concluded Brubaker.

Previously, Brubaker has been credited as “special thanks” on 'Avengers: Endgame,'&nbsp;'Avengers: Infinity War,'&nbsp;'Captain America: Civil War,'&nbsp;'Captain America: The First Avenger'&nbsp;and even appeared in a cameo role in 2014’s 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier.'

Here's what Winter Soldier co-creator feels about 'The Falcon and The Winter Soldier'

The Falcon and The Winter Soldier', premiered on Friday on Disney+Hotstar, and the old style of Marvel storytelling was received well by the fans. While the Marvel fans were still reeling from the bombardment of characters that occurred in 'WandaVision', the new episode o0f the new series, introduced an unexpected character. 
 
<a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/the-falcon-and-the-winter-soldier-review-the-first-episode-is-all-about-redemptions-re-adjustments-and-replacements-371658" hreflang="en">'The Falcon and The Winter Soldier' review: The first episode is all about redemptions, re-adjustments, and replacements</a> 
 
In an interview with Variety, Kari Skogland, the director of all six episodes of the second Marvel series from Phase 4,&nbsp; talked about the show’s approach to its themes of race and trauma and discussed how all of the show’s characters&nbsp;are dealing&nbsp;with the Blip.

In the first scene in “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier,” Sam Wilson (Anthony Mackie), is remembering his conversation with his friend Steve Rogers in which Steve, Captain America, passed the mantle of his shield to Sam, the Falcon. “How does it feel?” he remembers Steve saying (voiced by Chris Evans) in the final scene in “Avengers: Endgame.” “Like it’s someone else’s,” Sam replies.

“It isn’t,” Steve says.

Soon we see him packing the shield away, and return it to the Defense Department at a ceremony in which they honor Captain America. “I don’t know if there’s ever been a greater symbol,” Sam says in a speech as he holds the shield. “But it’s more about the man who propped it up — and he’s gone.”

Skogland also delved into the final scene of the episode.

The episode reveals to Sam that the United States government didn’t agree with his decision to retire the shield. From his house in Louisiana, Sam watches on TV as a spokesman for the Defense Department (Alphie Hyroth) announces that there’s a new Captain America, played by Wyatt Russell.&nbsp;

Skogland talked about that scene, and said it was especially important how the government official introduced the new Captain America, using nationalistic language: “We need heroes who are relatable; we need heroes who are from this planet,” Skogland paraphrased.

“They had gone in, and obviously done exactly what Sam was hoping that they wouldn’t,” Skogland told Variety. “The shield belongs to Steve. It belongs to that time.”

Obviously, the government’s decision — which Sam feels is wrong and rash, as you can see from the anguish in Mackie’s face — will cause him to rethink that opinion.

“What does it represent? What is its relevance?” Skogland asked.

“We were always telling a racially charged exploration of what it was for a Black man to pick up the shield,” she said.

As far as shooting the scene in which Walker is introduced, he appears on the steps to enthusiastic applause, wielding the shield and waving to the crowd. He looks down at the camera, and the final shot is him winking.

“I wanted to hero-ise,” Skogland said about how we can’t really make out Russell’s face behind the mask. “Lots of low angles and and sneaky imagery, so that you just about get him — you don’t quite get him.”

That question sets up the rest of the series, especially since Sam and Bucky aren’t together in the premiere episode. The decision to keep them apart, Skogland said, was made in order to set up their lives apart from each other, before they “take off at a gallop,” she said.

The new&nbsp;Captain America will bring the title characters together, it seems. “Sam and Bucky will have a really interesting interaction as they go through their adventure about just that — what the shield means to each one of them for different reasons,” Skogland said.

The Falcon and The Winter Soldier', premiered on Friday on Disney+Hotstar, and the old style of Marvel storytelling was received well by the fans. While the Marvel fans were still reeling from the bombardment of characters that occurred in 'WandaVision', the new episode o0f the new series, introduced an unexpected character. 'The Falcon and The Winter Soldier' review: The first episode is all about redemptions, re-adjustments, and replacements In an interview with Variety, Kari Skogland, the director of all six episodes of the second Marvel series from Phase 4, talked about the show’s approach to its themes of race and trauma and discussed how all of the show’s characters are dealing with the Blip. In the first scene in “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier,” Sam Wilson (Anthony Mackie), is remembering his conversation with his friend Steve Rogers in which Steve, Captain America, passed the mantle of his shield to Sam, the Falcon. “How does it feel?” he remembers Steve saying (voiced by Chris Evans) in the final scene in “Avengers: Endgame.” “Like it’s someone else’s,” Sam replies. “It isn’t,” Steve says. Soon we see him packing the shield away, and return it to the Defense Department at a ceremony in which they honor Captain America. “I don’t know if there’s ever been a greater symbol,” Sam says in a speech as he holds the shield. “But it’s more about the man who propped it up — and he’s gone.” Skogland also delved into the final scene of the episode. The episode reveals to Sam that the United States government didn’t agree with his decision to retire the shield. From his house in Louisiana, Sam watches on TV as a spokesman for the Defense Department (Alphie Hyroth) announces that there’s a new Captain America, played by Wyatt Russell. Skogland talked about that scene, and said it was especially important how the government official introduced the new Captain America, using nationalistic language: “We need heroes who are relatable; we need heroes who are from this planet,” Skogland paraphrased. “They had gone in, and obviously done exactly what Sam was hoping that they wouldn’t,” Skogland told Variety. “The shield belongs to Steve. It belongs to that time.” Obviously, the government’s decision — which Sam feels is wrong and rash, as you can see from the anguish in Mackie’s face — will cause him to rethink that opinion. “What does it represent? What is its relevance?” Skogland asked. “We were always telling a racially charged exploration of what it was for a Black man to pick up the shield,” she said. As far as shooting the scene in which Walker is introduced, he appears on the steps to enthusiastic applause, wielding the shield and waving to the crowd. He looks down at the camera, and the final shot is him winking. “I wanted to hero-ise,” Skogland said about how we can’t really make out Russell’s face behind the mask. “Lots of low angles and and sneaky imagery, so that you just about get him — you don’t quite get him.” That question sets up the rest of the series, especially since Sam and Bucky aren’t together in the premiere episode.

'The Falcon and the Winter Soldier' director breaks down 'that' final scene from first episode

*Post contains mild spoilers* The wait is over! Marvel is back on its toes with 'The Falcon and The Winter Soldier', and unlike 'WandaVision', this series gets you the old Marvel Cinematic Universe’s flavour, right from the start.

*Post contains mild spoilers* The wait is over! Marvel is back on its toes with 'The Falcon and The Winter Soldier', and unlike 'WandaVision', this series gets you the old Marvel Cinematic Universe’s flavour, right from the start. While fans anticipated a major Captain America’-kind hangover from the series (considering both Falcon and The Winter Soldier have been Steve’s long-standing allies from their start in the MCU- the series goes beyond it. The shadow of Steve Rogers stands tall as both Sam (Falcon) and James Barnes (The Winter Soldier) are trying to readjust to their lives post the blip that took away USA’s beloved superhero. With Captain America gone, Falcon is struggling to keep the shield bestowed upon him from the man himself, and Barnes is trying to amend his life after the atrocities he caused as the pawn of the HYDRA, taking out family time and visiting a therapist respectively. The show that’s going to have six episodes has been created by Malcolm Spellman and brings Sebastian Stan and Anthony Mackie to reprise their roles from Phase 3 of Marvel Cinematic Universe. Also early on in the episodes, fans are given a treat in the form of War Machine aka Don Cheadle, as an ally to Falcon. The first episode majorly deals with the lead characters going through a hard time and trying to come to terms with the events that altered their and the world’s lives post Infinity War (cue, high profile US Military missions right from the first frame and some major emotional turmoil). The first episode starts the string of events in Marvel’s patent way of embodying thrill and trauma with a lot of baggage, keeping the viewers hooked and asking for more. There’s action, drama, a bit of cheeky humour, and a cliffhanger to keep the fans asking for more. Also, expected, are a lot of old cameos and the introduction of new key characters who are going to take the camaraderie between the two leading men, to another level.

F Walker manning the shield as the new Captain America, much to the dismay of Falcon, who is of the belief that no one can ever fill Steve Rogers’ shoes. The world is now broken and the world needs soldiers, but that doesn’t mean MCU fans have to completely let go of the old Marvel ways. After a renovated and refurbished started to Phase 4 with a quirky and magical Wanda Vision, Falcon and The Winter Soldier’s premiere episode brings Marvel back to its known roots, only to take a jump higher in the upcoming episodes (expect a lot of SHIELD cameos incoming and the introduction of the villain man who caused the rift between our two favourites - Iron-Man and Captain America) Also read: 'Loki' new poster: Tom Hiddleston is the God of Mischief with an upgrade There’s a lot of unpacking to be done, but the box has been opened cleanly and engagingly by the series makers. The only thing to keep in mind here is, this series will play out the values of Captain America, by two of the most impulsive Avengers. If anything, that promises a lot of friction and in-turn fun in the most ‘Marvelous’ fashion. The series is streaming on Disney+ Hotstar, with new episodes dropping every Friday.
