Fans were promised a huge cameo appearance in episode five of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, and it's safe to say it delivered. No one expected either Julia Louis-Dreyfus, or La Contessa Valentina Allegra De Fontaine to show up, and fans were stunned when she did.

Between nothing more than a scene in each of episodes five and six, she had a huge impact on John Walker, introducing fans to U.S. Agent, and may have started the ball rolling on the Thunderbolts. Not bad for less than five minutes of screen time.

She has also already established a real personality on screen, as a no nonsense, straight shooting, and wonderfully sarcastic authority figure that you would not want to get on the wrong side of.

It would seem that she will have a big role to play moving forward, something that will be similar to Nick Fury's in the early days of the MCU. Hopefully this will equate to her bringing together the franchise's long-overdue iteration of the Thunderbolts, and for the moment at least, it seems that she has made a great start.
