The Spot News: Captain America and The Falcon


The Spot News: Captain America and The Falcon

Screenwriters Stephen McFeely and Christopher Markus have suggested for a while now that they would like to mess around with the timeline of Captain America. Either to set it back in World War 2 as a flashback/greatest stories type movie or just set it in modern times with small flashbacks here and there.

As Robert previously reported about a want for MODOK to be the villain for part 2 they also confess a desire to get their hands on some of Captain America’s modern day supporting cast: namely, his longtime partner the Falcon, and his occasional girlfriend Sharon Carter (a S.H.I.E.L.D. operative and niece of Peggy Carter).

“I want both of them!” Markus exclaims. “Sharon is meaty, almost to a point where you get a little uncomfortable because her relation to Peggy has shifted over the years, as time has passed. She’s the sister, she’s the cousin, she’s the niece. You have to walk a fine line there because it does seem like you’re dating your girlfriend’s daughter. Falcon is awesome. We can’t play with time so much to have Cap go back to Harlem in the ’70s and clean up the streets, but it would be awesome to go straight-up, like, Shaft with Cap and the Falcon.”
