Sam Wilson’s ascent to the Captain America title has been a long time coming. We saw him don the star-spangled supersuit in the Falcon and the Winter Soldier in early 2021, but now, almost three years later, there’s still no sign of him in his new role. While there is a firm date for his return on the schedule in Captain America: Brave New World, multiple delays and reshoots have thrown the former Falcon’s future into question. However, the latest rewrite may be a good sign, not a bad one.
