Annoyingly, though, critics only saw a couple of scenes. Peradventure this will aid prevent spoilers — we're still hoping this show will take some big MCU surprises like WandaVision.

One note upwards front: critics apparently only saw two scenes. Each focuses on i of the titular heroes, with Sam Wilson running a rescue mission in 1 and Bucky'southward scene mixing a therapy session and some action (likely interspliced).

So...#FalconAndWinterSoldier preview thoughts! (Critics got to come across 2 scenes!) Sam Wilson is getting the about brutal (and bloody!?) activity scenes we've seen in the MCU to appointment. Wouldn't call it Hard R, per se, but the activity does go Difficult. (i/2) #TCA21 pic.twitter.com/BL9xrdLeTfFebruary 24, 2021

2nd one was Bucky with a therapist where she was trying to go him to talk about his problems. Also featured some well shot activeness. Both scenes show that @MarvelStudios is spending serious $$$ on their @disneyplus stuff but you already know that after watching #WandaVision. 2/ii pic.twitter.com/2QBKKVJY8oFebruary 24, 2021

Curiosity showed me an activity-packed Falcon clip and a graphic symbol-driven Bucky clip from @falconandwinter. The stunts were jaw-dropping. Like, I can't believe what they pulled off. Bucky's story, meanwhile, digs into the drama. Clips made me VERY excited for this @disneyplus show! pic.twitter.com/imvNoJ2kntFebruary 24, 2021
