When a new set of posters for Captain America: The Winter Soldier were recently released, fans were a little disappointed that Anthony Mackie (Pain & Gain, The Hurt Locker) didn’t get much of a look in as the newest addition to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, The Falcon.
Thankfully, Marvel Studios have now seen sense, and a character poster featuring the actor as Captain America’s new friend and sidekick Sam Wilson is here. Mackie has hinted a few times that we’ll see the character and costume evolve in future movies, so it wouldn’t be at all surprising if The Falcon makes an appearance in Avengers: Age of Ultron.
For now though, he’s going to be far too busy battling The Winter Soldier alongside the star spangled superhero! Oh, and as if this new poster wasn’t exciting enough, a new batch of character images have also been released.
After the cataclysmic events in New York with The Avengers, Marvel’s Captain America: The Winter Soldier finds Steve Rogers – aka Captain America – living quietly in Washington, DC, and trying to adjust to the modern world. But when a S.H.I.E.L.D. colleague comes under attack, Steve becomes embroiled in a web of intrigue that threatens to put the world at risk. Joining forces with the Black Widow, Captain America struggles to expose the ever-widening conspiracy while fighting off professional assassins sent to silence him at every turn. When the full scope of the villainous plot is revealed, Captain America and the Black Widow enlist the help of a new ally, the Falcon. However, they soon find themselves up against an unexpected and formidable enemy – the Winter Soldier.
Starring Chris Evans, Anthony Mackie, Cobie Smulders, Sebastian Stan, Scarlett Johansson, Frank Grillo, Felicity Jones, Georges St-Pierre, Hayley Atwell, Toby Jones, Emily VanCamp, Samuel L. Jackson, and Robert Redford, Captain America: The Winter Soldier is set to be released in 3D and IMAX 3D in the UK on 26th March and in the US on April 4th.
