MCU: Black Widow, Falcon/Winter Soldier

[dewline]

Item 1:

There is a particular reason why I want this one to exceed Captain Marvel's box office numbers when it gets to the cinemas. If you've seen Endgame, you likely either already know or can deduce quickly what that reason is.

Item 2:

The director of Falcon/Winter Soldier - all six episodes - has been announced. And we have a direct Ottawa-Gatineau connection here. And it's not her first MCU gig, either...

Anyone know the origin of the image of Falcon and Winter Soldier where costumed Bucky's back in the muzzle?

[dewline]

I haven't seen it so far, as far as I can remember. So, no clue.

[peoriapeoriawhereart]

My search-fu worked!

It's actually fan art, which makes sense, given that they've just announced who's directing so it's too early for Teasing.

It's in this article ScreenRant

And I just forgot the point of my original posting and repeated myself.

Noting the Screenrant article...and I'm not sure about that fan art so far.

I really cannot see Barnes, James, Bucky, wearing the muzzle without it having a very specific reason behind it. Like he was paying a 'social call' on someone the very sight of The Winter Soldier would constitute an opening play. But since that muzzle strikes me as Alexander Pierce's special brand of atavistic cogs, I'm not sure that would be a compelling reason.

And Alexander Pierce is very publicly known to be very dead.

There's maybe one person left from the World Security Council who might be worth that kind of attention. And Councilor Hawley - played by Jenny Agutter - was impersonated by Natasha at the Battle of the Triskelion the last we saw of her.

If they announce Agutter's involvement in this project, I will be both surprised and gratified.

I have to admit, I was a _little_ let down that it was secretly Natasha going badass, but it was fun getting to see Agutter doing the fight.

Mind you, I'm never sure who the various Characters are because with the exception of Ryan Coogler they introduce them in a way that teflons right on going gone. So, I'm thinking "huh, guess she used to be Mossad/the like."
