Sam Wilson · Falcon and Captain America: their Marvel watch route
Sam Wilson has his own journey, beginning in The Winter Soldier and crossing between film and television. This selection brings together the titles most useful for following his connections with Steve Rogers and Bucky Barnes through Brave New World. It focuses on Sam rather than assuming every movie bearing the Captain America name follows the same lead character.
Watch The Falcon and the Winter Soldier after Endgame and before Brave New World. Age of Ultron and Ant-Man contain additional appearances by Sam; you can add them, but they sit outside this shorter main route.
Selected major appearances, not an exhaustive list of cameos, credit scenes or animated variants.
