“The Falcon and the Winter Soldier” writer Malcolm Spellman said the new Disney+ show will set up future Marvel projects.
What’s happening?
Spellman told Entertainment Weekly that the new show will setup events in the same way “WandaVision” links to events in “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.” (Per Den of Geek, the finale of “WandaVision” has some setups for the “Doctor Strange” sequel).
- “I can think of three that I’m not allowed to talk about,” Spellman told Entertainment Weekly.
More details
Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige recently told Entertainment Weekly that most of the shows and projects after “Avengers: Endgame” will either stand-alone or connect back to “Avengers: Endgame.”
- He said characters will have a path after “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier,” too, but he couldn’t go into details about it since that goes into “the spoiler realm,” he said. “We have a future charted for characters post-‘Falcon and the Winter Soldier,’ but I don’t want to say much more than that.”
Flashback
Feige said at a recent global press conference that “The Falcon and The Winter Soldier” will impact the Marvel Cinematic Universe — but he cautioned fans about theories.
He said Bucky Barnes and Sam Wilson are important to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, which is why the show matters, as I wrote for the Deseret News. But, he said, there won’t be a ton of reasons to create huge theories.
- He said “there can be character shifts that have massive, massive implications for the future.”
