The series premiere of The Falcon and The Winter Soldier introduced John Walker as Captain America, a strange decision when we've known since Avengers: Endgame that Sam Wilson will ultimately wield the shield. Anthony Mackie has talked openly about what it means to be a Black actor taking on such an iconic role, as have Kevin Feige and showrunner Malcolm Spellman.
So, The Falcon becoming Captain America isn't a spoiler...his costume, however, arguably is.
Discovered by Marvelous News (who uncovered the images on an official Disney retailer), this Marvel Select action figure based on The Falcon and The Winter Soldier shows off the new Captain America costume in great detail. It looks utterly phenomenal, though those wings are particularly eye-catching.
Anyway, Marvel Studios has stuck to the comics with this one, and it pays homage both to Steve Rogers and The Falcon's other MCU suits in a few very cool ways. Seeing this in live-action promises to be a real treat, and unlike toy images which surfaced some time ago, this better represents what we'll see on screen. Unfortunately, we don't know which episode Sam will first suit up in!
