Although we never got any kind of official announcement from Marvel, several reliable reports did indicate that The Falcon and the Winter Solider was set to premiere on Disney+ next month. But if that was the plan, it doesn't look like it's still on the cards.

The streaming service has now released its August 2020 schedule, confirming premiere dates for X-Men, Ant-Man and the Wasp, Beauty and the Beast and 2005's Fantastic Four. However, the Captain America: Civil War spinoff series is nowhere to be seen.

There's still a chance it will debut on Disney+ next month and Marvel is planning to announce the news closer to the time, but that seems like wishful thinking. Like pretty much every other major TV and film production, shooting was delayed thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic, and filming only just resumed in Prague earlier this month.

We'll keep you guys updated, but with no announcement, teaser trailer or so much as an official promo still, we wouldn't be holding our breath!

The Falcon and the Winter Soldier is directed by Kari Skogland and stars Anthony Mackie as Sam Wilson and Sebastian Stan as Bucky Barnes. Emily VanCamp and Daniel Brühl will also reprise their roles as Sharon Carter and Baron Zemo.

This all makes perfect sense to me. Delay a show that was reportedly one episode from being completed while a lot of people are at home, but open the theme parks when everyone should be at home.

This is an obvious problem of having the Disney+ Shows interconnected with the movies. If the TV show relies on any form of continuity or referencing back to the Black Widow movie, then clearly it's going to be delayed for as long as that is delayed.

@528491 - I was thinking that. If no movies come out this year I can’t see the shows coming out either.

If The Mandalorian can possibly be ready by August, just swap it's October release date with Falcon and the Winter Soldier.

@WackyBantha - highly doubt Disney will drop the Mandolorian within the next month

Not surprised since I doubt they would start a new phase with a tv show instead of a movie
