Created in 1986, in comics Walker started out as buffoonish villain Super Patriot, a fanatic determined to replace Captain America. He becomes a government sanctioned superhero and is appointed as the new Captain America for sometime. He later becomes US Agent.
Marvel head Kevin Feige made the announcement at D23 Expo here on Friday. He feels privileged to be associated with the show.
“It’s an unbelievable privilege to be able to continue to work with these two (Mackie and Stan) year after year and now coming to Disney+. We do a much deeper dive into both their pasts and present post ‘Avengers: Endgame’ in a way that is cool,” Feige said.
It will premiere at Disney+ soon.
