Prepare To Ship!
Flush with John Wick success, the creator of Keanu Reeves’ puppy loving professional killer is moving to Marvel. Derek Kolstad has joined the writing team for Falcon & Winter Soldier. This limited series is being made by Marvel Studios for the Disney+ streaming service.
Now that Cap has retired, strange people on the internet can no longer ship a Bucky / Cap relationship. Before a lot of cats get hurt, Anthony Mackie and Sebastian Stan can ride to the rescue. The ship will be strong in this one.
New Show, Who Dis?
Reprising their big-screen roles as Sam Wilson aka Falcon and Bucky Barnes/The Winter Soldier, respectively, the series will be set after the events of Avengers: Endgame.
Emily VanCamp (Sharon Carter) and Daniel Bruhl (Baron Zemo) are also in talks to reprise their roles.
Kari Skogland will direct the six-part miniseries for an August 2020 reveal. Marvel will be producing a number of limited series for Disney+ Including WandaVision, Loki and Hawkeye.
Kolstad has been busy. As well as writing John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum, he has sold the pitch for Booker to Sony Pictures, is adapting Just Cause into a movie and is writing 3 Days of the Condor for Hulu.
