Exclusive: Amy Aquino On Joining The MCU In ‘The Falcon and the Winter Soldier’

Now playing on Disney+ is Marvel Studios’ “The Falcon and The Winter Soldier,” featuring fan-favorites Anthony Mackie and Sebastian Stan as Falcon and Winter Soldier, whose oil-and-water dynamic has entertained audiences since 2016’s “Avengers: Civil War.”

All eyes are on the shield, as Sam Wilson aka The Falcon, and Bucky Barnes aka The Winter Soldier decide to team up—or rather, work together—when a new global threat launches them into an unexpected mission that may hit too close to home.

Directed by Kari Skogland with Malcolm Spellman serving as head writer, the six-episode series also stars Wyatt Russell as John Walker, Emily VanCamp as Sharon Carter, Adepero Oduye as Sarah Wilson and Daniel Brühl as Zemo.

For Amy Aquino, who plays Bucky’s therapist Doctor Christina Raynor in episodes New World Order and The Star-Spangled Man, the veteran TV and film screen actress had to go back and catch up on the Marvel world. Having appeared in numerous series such as Brooklyn Bridge, Picket Fences, ER, Felicity, Being Human and more recently Bosch is nothing like being in a Marvel where fans get to create a page solely on your character and what the character does. In speaking with BlackFilmandTV.com’s Wilson Morales, Aquino talks about her research and surprise about her character page.
