This cool piece of news comes courtesy of The Wrap, who confirmed that Kolstad will be part of the writing team of this six-part series that will be dropping on Disney Plus streaming service in August 2020. As always, Marvel Studios have declined to comment. Derek Kolstad is an interesting choice for a writer indeed. While the John Wick movies will, for the most part, be hailed for its groundbreaking action sequences, make no mistake, it’s Derek Kolstad’s unique worldbuilding that separates the franchise from the likes of The Equalizer, Taken and your other ‘one-man army’ action flicks. I’m curious to see what Kolstad brings to the table for Falcon and The Winter Soldier. Previously, Kevin Feige made it clear that the Marvel shows on Disney+ will be directly connected to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In other words, yes they will be part of the official canon.
