Anthony Mackie, who plays Falcon in the MCU, says Captain America of Phase 4 will be announced to the public at the end of the Disney + miniseries.
The falcon and the winter soldier will announce at the end of the series who will take up the mantle of Captain America. The upcoming Disney + series follows the duo of the same name played by Anthony Mackie and Sebastian Stan as they travel the world to fight the anarchist Flag Smashers. The show is part of a new chapter for the MCU, which matches the production quality of the films in limited series on Disney’s own streamer. Following the events of Avengers: Endgame, the series is about the allies and friends of Chris Evans’s Captain America.
At the end of the film, Sam Wilson, aka Falcon, accepts Cap’s iconic shield from an elderly Steve Rogers and apparently accepts his blessing as his successor. Although it was a neat and sentimental transition from one captain to another, there was talk of Evans’ return as the patriotic super-soldier. Mackie, for one, is more than happy to see him come back. Maybe it’s not going to be that easy to fill Captain America’s shoes yet.

Talk on The Rich Iron Show, Mackie revealed that the new Captain America by the end of The falcon and the winter soldier. While it may not be an easy ride, the question of ‘where the shield ends up“is the most important issue of the series. Mackie does not want to say who will take over the mantle and the answer may not be who we expect. Check out his full quote below:
At the end of Endgame, Sam did not accept the shield. If you remember, he told Steve, ‘It does not feel right, because this shield is yours.’ So the show is a long way to go to see who Captain America is going to be. Where the shield will end up and if Captain America, or the moniker will come back and someone will hold the moniker again.
Mackie has previously expressed doubts about whether Falcon will be the next Captain America. Even though he seems to accept the shield Endgame, the responsibility to become a symbol of America is a great responsibility. The falcon and the winter soldier contains the debut of Marvel hero US Agent, a super-soldier originally designed by the government to replace Steve. The Flag Smashers may not be the only organization working against his desire to transfer the shield to Falcon.
Apparently Mackie knows everything that will happen in Phase 4, and he’s excited to see fans react to everything that’s coming. As the old heroes bend or depart on their own journeys, new blood will fill the Avengers, and new leaders will take up the challenge. As a new multi-movie email has just launched, Disney + series like Hawkeye and The falcon and the winter soldier will explain the rise of brand new heroes and successors to old ones.
