Bucky Barnes and Sam Wilson are the stars of this Disney+ original series

If youā€™ve seen the end of Avengers: Endgame, you know that Captain America gifted the shield to Sam Wilson. Itā€™s his responsibility now, with the help of Bucky Barnes, to be that voice of reason that Steve Rogers was for so many years.

Sebastian Stan and Anthony Mackie return to reprise their iconic roles: The Winter Soldier and Falcon respectively. Fans even caught a glimpse of them during the Disney+ Super Bowl advertisement and can learn more on the titleā€™s page, listed in the Disney+ library.

ā€œThey have great chemistry,ā€ Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige said during an interview with The Hollywood Reporter of Sebastian Stan and Anthony Mackie. ā€œYou will see much more of that chemistry and learn much more about both of them.ā€

Will Agent Sharon Carter be in ā€˜Falcon and the Winter Soldierā€™

The Falcon and the Winter Soldier arenā€™t Captain Americaā€™s only friends. Along the way, Steve Rogers met Agent Sharon Carter. She was his neighbor, and also a relative of his old flame Peggy and a high ranking member of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Later, Agent Carter appeared in the Marvel movie like Captain America: Civil War, helping Captain America in his fight to protect Bucky. The character, portrayed by Emily VanCamp, will make an appearance in the upcoming Disney+ original series. It is unclear how large her role will be.

Some fans assume sheā€™ll do a lot of the behind the scenes work for this duo. Others think there will be a romance between Agent Carter and another character, although nothing has been confirmed by Disney.Ā 

ā€œIā€™m still thinking about that kiss. Still trying to figure it all out,ā€ Sebastian Stan said of Sharonā€™s relationship with his on-screen best friend, Captain America, according to Entertainment Weekly. ā€œIā€™m very excited to see what happened to Sharon and obviously who John Walker (Wyatt Russell) is after Endgame, and I think itā€™s going to be fun.ā€
