Brave New World is the first solo feature film featuring the character of Sam Wilson in the lead. And it’s not insignificant, as Sam Wilson’s Falcon was the first African-American superhero in mainstream comics.

Sam Wilson's MCU journey from the Falcon to Captain America is a winding road that birthed a new and exciting kind of hero.

Marvel Comics second hero to be called the Falcon, Joaquín Torres, has a very different history in the comics than in the MCU.
