The pair continued the fun banter, with Stan comparing Mackie to a fly that
“just won’t go away”
but still pointing out that they have a
“very good dynamic.”
Mackie quickly intervened by hilariously saying
“absolutely not:”
Stan: “He’s like, you know, when you have a fly in your house, and it just won’t go away. [Laughs] But we have a very good dynamic.”
Mackie: “Uh, absolutely not.”
Stan: “Come on, I’m telling you we got it.”

Based on the featurette, it’s clear that Anthony Mackie and Sebastian Stan are both enjoying their newfound dynamic that will be explored in
The Falcon and the Winter Soldier
. The pair’s banter in the airport battle in 2016’s
Captain America: Civil War
was an instant classic, and it’s safe to say that the upcoming series will provide a much-needed avenue for the duo to showcase it in an extended manner.
After starting off as enemies in 2014’s
Captain America: The Winter Soldier,
the duo’s friendship has evolved throughout the Infinity Saga, and it will be pushed further to the forefront in their very own Marvel series. Given that, it will be interesting to find out how the “co-worker-type” relationship will be transformed into a full-blown friendship, and it seems that this is one core story element that
The Falcon and the Winter Soldier
will resolve in the finale.

Meanwhile, the featurette pretty much confirmed that Daniel Bruhl’s Baron Zemo will temporarily team-up with Sam and Bucky at some point in the show. It remains to be seen why the two Avengers decided to trust Zemo, and it will be interesting to find out how this unusual get-together will pan out in the series.
Overall,
The Falcon and the Winter Soldier
presents a lot of interesting story possibilities, and some of them could evolve in surprising ways.
