When will Marvel’s The Falcon And The Winter Soldier be released on Disney+?
The series will air on Disney Plus on March 19, 2021.
The trailer sensationally debuted during the 2021 SuperBowl to the surprise of fans.
The coronavirus outbreak originally forced production to be halted, but plans were thankfully rearranged to to reprise shooting in the Czech Republic.
The Falcon And The Winter Soldier is set to debut just three weeks after WandaVision’s finale, so fans won’t be left without a Marvel fix for too long.
What is it about?
In Marvel’s new series, Falcon (Anthony Mackie) and Winter Soldier (Sebastian Stan) will team up in a global adventure that tests their abilities and their patience.
The series is a sequel to Avengers: Endgame.
The last fans saw, Steve Rogers was retiring from his duties as Captain America and passed his shield on to Falcon.
Although details are being closely guarded, Sebastian Stan who plays Winter Soldier said: “I think it’s time for Bucky to go out there and have an identity outside of the circumstances that we’ve met him through,”

“So, I don’t know, he might do all kinds of things. He might even go on a date. I don’t know… I think it’s gonna be a lot of dealing with Anthony’s character.”
It will be directed by Kari Skogland who also directed several episodes of The Handmaid’s Tale.
