The Falcon and the Winter Soldier is Marvel’s newest show after a successful run of WandaVision. The show will slot right into WandaVision’s Friday night spot, pairing Marvel heroes Falcon (Anthony Mackie) and Winter Soldier (Sebastian Stan) in a globe-trotting, buddy comedy adventure. First episode of the series finally arrived last Friday on Disney Plus.
However, unlike WandaVision, the Falcon and the Winter Soldier didn’t premiere with two episodes on the same day. It’ll release an episode a week, with the sixth and final arriving in the third week of April. While this is fewer episodes than the Wanda and Vision sitcom, the expected episode runtime gives you a little extra, varying from 40 to 50 minutes.

On top of that, the pair team up on a globe-trotting mission to take down an anarchist group called the Flag-Smashers.

Wyatt Russell plays John F. Walker/US Agent, the US government’s militaristic successor to Captain America. Plus, Don Cheadle appears as War Machine.
Will There Be A Second Season?
Loki, the upcoming series starring, yep, Loki, already has a second season in development. However, no word on whether The Falcon and the Winter Soldier is going the same way yet.
