The Super Bowl trailer for The Falcon and the Winter Solider hit early in the game and showed fans what they can expect from the upcoming Disney+ series.

It showed what fans can expect from the series as well as a welcome appearance by someone that fans will meet this summer in one of the big MCU movies.

The Falcon and the Winter Soldier Super Bowl trailer shows that this next Disney+ series following WandaVision will play out almost like a buddy cop comedy.

The trailer shows more of the awkward relationship between Sam Wilson (Falcon) and Bucky Barnes (Winter Soldier) as it is bookended with a visit to what looks to be a therapist.

In between is a ton of action.

In includes a quick look at Baron Zemo, the guy who brainwashed Winter Soldier in Captain America: The Winter Soldier. He is rumored to be the main villain in this movie.

There is also a look at Sharon Carter, who has appeared in the Captain America movies as well.

The big surprise was Sharon Carter’s appearance, where she proves to be much more than she was in the Captain America movies.

Who is Sharon Carter in Falcon and the Winter Soldier?

Fans met Sharon Carter in the Captain America movies. She played a big role there, but mostly as a supporting character who didn’t do much to prove she is actually one of the big guns in Marvel.

Carter initially was set up to be a spy watching Steve Rogers when he was getting his feet under him in Captain America: The Winter Soldier. She played a bigger role later in that movie, though.

It was Sharon Carter who stood up to the Hydra terrorists who were trying to overtake S.H.I.E.L.D. from the inside. She stopped them long enough for the heroes to save the day.

In the comics, Sharon is Peggy Carter’s niece — THE Peggy Carter from Captain America: The First Avenger and ABC’s Marvel’s Agent Carter. She is more than capable of handling herself.

With Sharon going man-to-man with Bucky and Sam, and then showing some slick moves, later, it is apparent this is one MCU movie character that is finally getting a chance to prove herself.

The Falcon and the Winter Soldier premieres on March 19, 2021 on Disney+. There will be six episodes in the series. Black Widow hits theaters on May 7, 2021.
