*Spoilers Ahead*
As “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier” finally made it’s debut on Disney+, the show took the internet by storm.
We finally got to see where both Sam Wilson and Bucky Barnes has left off after the events of “Avengers: Endgame.”
Sam Wilson aka The Falcon is working alongside the US government and also helping out his sister and nephews.
Bucky is seeing a therapist in order to find a sense of peace and make amends with all those that he has put in the wrong.
The episode follows each character by themselves to give the audience a sense of how exactly each character is doing. Both are learning how to navigate life post “blip” and how to move on from the loss of their friend.
Towards the end of the episode, the news revealed that the country is in need of someone to look up too and see as a symbol just as Steve Rodgers once did.
But the bearer of the shield is someone new……

After the reveal, fans took social media by storm posting TikToks and tweets about the new person playing “Captain America.”
People weren’t as pleased with the new “Captain America” and were comparing him to Chris Evan’s version that we have known throughout the whole MCU.

The hashtag #NotMyCap starting trending on Twitter as the fans spoke out their feelings of the reveal.
Other fans started tweeting in defense saying that the fans were overreacting. They said that it was only a 30 second clip that we saw and we haven’t even truly met the character yet.
With the episode only coming out a few days ago, it seems like the internet will be occupied with a new meme until we can finally meet this new Captain America.
