Agent, sporting the same Cap-inspired costume that Russell wears at the end of the Falcon and Winter Soldier premiere. But he didn’t stay out of the costume game for long: in 1989, he reappeared as U.S. At that point, Rogers reclaimed his old costume and the government’s Commission of Superhuman Activities arranged to fake Walker’s death. One year later, a less reactionary Walker took up the mantle when Steve decided he was “ Captain America No More.”īut Walker’s tenure proved short-lived: when his secret identity was leaked to the public, he retaliated against his enemies with extreme prejudice. Introduced into Marvel Comics continuity 35 years ago in 1986, Walker actually began his superhero career as the Captain American antagonist Super-Patriot, who felt that the star-spangled Avenger wasn’t properly representing the stars and stripes. You’re looking at John Walker, played by Wyatt Russell - son of Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell, who also has a role in the MCU as Star-Lord’s dad, Ego. So who is this new Cap? While his identity isn’t given in the episode, it has already been disclosed in advance via featurettes and press materials.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe has a new Captain America at the end of the first episode of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier… but it isn’t Sam Wilson… or Bucky Barnes.
