Temper Expectations for The Falcon and Winter Soldier
We've entered a new age and a new phase of Marvel story-telling with the Disney Plus series. WandaVision was just the beginning, but it told us a lot about what to expect going forward. With The Falcon and Winter Soldier airing, what exactly can we expect from this team-up of Captain America's two closest friends?
The Story
The exact story is anyone's guess, but there are some threads we can pull from the various trailers. We know the show is going to explore Sam Wilson and his path to accepting his role as the new Captain America. While that's happening, the US Government is enacting their own plans on who they think should fill the mantle of Captain America.
