THE FALCON AND THE WINTER SOLDIER: [SPOILER] Reveals How They Were Snuck Onto Set By Marvel Studios

The Falcon and The Winter Soldier featured a major surprise cameo in the penultimate episode, and the actor who played that character has now revealed how they were snuck onto set each day. Check it out!

We were promised a big cameo in The Falcon and The Winter Soldier's fifth episode, and while it might not have been as major as some fans hoped, it was still pretty damn cool. 

Emmy winner Julia Louis-Dreyfus was cast, in secret, to play Contessa Valentina Allegra de Fontaine, a character from the comic books who has ties to S.H.I.E.L.D, HYDRA, and Leviathan. Her plans in the Marvel Cinematic Universe remain unclear for now, but she's a powerful woman, and a character many fans are convinced will ultimately assemble either the Thunderbolts or Dark Avengers.

Now, Dreyfus has taken to Twitter to reveal how Marvel Studios kept her presence in the Disney+ series a secret. A black cloak was involved, which would explain why she was never spotted by the paparazzi. "Val" returned in the finale, and is clearly plotting something major for U.S. Agent. 

In our review of Friday's episode, we concluded by saying, "The Falcon and The Winter Soldier's finale ushers in a bold new era of storytelling for the Marvel Cinematic Universe in an episode that sees Anthony Mackie firmly establish himself as the deserving new face of this shared world."

Check out Dreyfus' video from The Falcon and The Winter Soldier set below:

The “Cool Palpatine” look with the sunglasses.

I'm guessing it's the thunderbolts she's assembling. I really don't see her picking someone like walker after he was dishonorably discharged as part of a new avengers team.

Nowadays it's getting harder to determine whether the guys with dark suits and sunglasses that put a bag on my head and take me to an unknown location are from the government or if I just finally got a role in a marvel movie.

That looks like a graduation gown, if only they were cooler.

@DoubleD - mediocre news. Show was at its best with Zemo in the fold. Kind of stumbled to a close IMO but damn sam was amazing

I was hoping Sharon was actually Contessa with that face-changing mask she has because the "my boyfriend broke-up with me so I'm a supervillain now" twist that everyone saw coming was butt. Cool show, though

I was really underwhelmed when that turned out to be the big cameo.

@Razorface1 - As much as I still appreciate them overall, in terms of cameo and surprise, thinking about what Mandalorian did in either season, the enjoyment level is not even comparable with these first two MCU shows.

@Razorface1 - That's because we're (fans) creating our own big hype for these shows. I don't think you can compare WandaVision to FATWS. We've probably had unrealistic expectations of Marvel for a while, not a bad problem for them to have though if they continue to the do what got them here in the first place.

Interesting dynamic between Walker and Contessa. Looking forward to it being explored further in the future.
