MCU Phase 3: 20 Easter Eggs & References Marvel Should Sneak In

5. A Black Captain America

In the comic books recently, Sam Wilson - previously known as Falcon - has taken over the mantle of Captain America. Wilson is, of course, already a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, having first appeared in Captain America: The Winter Soldier played by Anthony Mackie. Chris Evans' Captain America is very likely to die in Phase 3 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe - probably at the hands of Thanos in one of the Infinity War movies - and Mackie's Wilson may well take over the role in the future. Therefore, a neat Easter egg foreshadowing this happening - such as Wilson wielding Captain America's shield briefly in battle - would be really cool to see and would set tongues wagging. Of course, Bucky Barnes will probably take the role first, but the Marvel Cinematic Universe isn't going anywhere any time soon, so the Captain America mantle may well change hands more than once.
