The Falcon and the Winter Soldier: Derek Kolstad Teases Appearances From Early MCU Characters
During a recent interview at Script Apart podcast, John Wick creator Derek Kolstad has finally opened up about his involvement with Disney+’s The Falcon and the Winter Soldier by revealing a new detail about the highly-anticipated MCU series. Kolstad teased that the upcoming series features the appearances of some characters from early MCU movies while also aiming to put the spotlight on secondary characters.
“What I will say is that there are characters from the earliest Marvel movies that are coming back,” Kolstad said. “We’re layering them in and reinventing them in a way that’s gonna shift the storytelling structure. It’s f***ing awesome.”
He added, “Here’s what I’ll say: growing up, everyone would give someone like Robin shit. But Robin’s pretty badass, and became pretty badass in the comics. [We’re] taking secondary characters and putting them in the primary roles, and [as a result] they’re cooler. They’re more interesting. There’s more humanity, more longing, more suffering, and coming to grips with who and what they are.”
