‘Falcon and the Winter Soldier’ showrunner teases the show’s exciting villain

It’s Thursday again, which means we’re less than a day away from brand new MCU content. This time around, we’re looking at The Falcon and the Winter Soldier TV show that airs on Disney+ every Friday. Five episodes are left in the season, with the second installment launching this week. From the looks of it, the show is another major success for the streaming service and for Marvel Studios. Disney announced a few days ago that the Falcon premiere was the most-watched original on Disney+ during the opening weekend, beating WandaVision and The Mandalorian.

The first episode only set the stage for what’s coming next, giving the audience a sneak peek at life after Endgame. We got to see what Sam (Anthony Mackie) and Bucky (Sebastian Stan) are up to six months after being snapped back into existence, and we learned that the world is in turmoil. Billions of people came back from the dead after five years of absence, and that’s something Endgame didn’t have time to dive into. The first episode of Falcon started showing us some of the villains in the show, but not the main one — or one of the main antagonists that Sam and Bucky will have to face. Before you continue, we should note that few minor spoilers might follow below.
