Who asked for this? I also heard they are reshooting the next Capt America, which was almost complete and now moved from 2024 to 2025, to take out a new hero called Sabra, a zionist superhero who works for the Mossad (I am not kidding.) Gosh, I wonder why. Who green-lit this?
This movie was already catching heat because they went with Black Falcon as their next Capt America, instead of, or I don't know, rebooting Steve Rodgers, the original Capt from decades of comics. This is why we can't have nice things.
I don't disagree, there have been more than a few questionable decisions made by Disney execs on the MCU.
But....
I'm pretty sure Sam Wilson has been Captain America in the comics, more than once I think. I don't think it's a bad move for them to make this change, especially with how well they wrapped up Steve's arc in Endgame. Actors age and using canon replacements is a great way to continue a franchise and introduce new stories.
Also: it's not Black Falcon, it's just Falcon. Gonna give you the benefit of the doubt that you weren't being racist about it.
That Black Falcon joke was in the tv show too iirc
Ah. I see. That's the only marvel series I haven't actually watched.
Exactly, thank you.
