Easter Eggs You Missed In The Falcon And The Winter Soldier Episode 2

The Falcon and the Winter Soldier is full of everything that makes the MCU special: action, superpowers, witty jokes, and, of course, a ton of Easter eggs for the attentive fan. Here are a few you might've missed in Episode 2, "The Star-Spangled Man."

Just before Bucky Barnes and Sam attempt to jump the Flag Smashers, the two have one of many hilarious exchanges in an abandoned warehouse. Bucky's stealthy behavior prompts Sam to call him the White Panther as a joke, referencing the time Bucky spent in Wakanda after the events of Captain America: Civil War. Bucky quickly corrects him,

This confuses Sam for a moment, but the scene moves on without further discussion.

We first see Bucky referred to as the White Wolf in the second post-credits scene from Black Panther. Some village children refer to Bucky by this name while he is residing in Wakanda under the watch of Shuri. T'Challa later calls Bucky this name during Avengers: Infinity War, before giving him a new vibranium arm for the impending battle against Thanos' army. The Falcon and the Winter Soldier marks the first time we've heard Bucky refer to himself as the White Wolf.

In the comics, the Winter Soldier and the White Wolf aren't the same character. Instead, the White Wolf is Hunter, T'Challa's adopted white brother. King T'Chaka takes Hunter in as an infant after he crash-lands in Wakanda with his parents, who don't make it out of the wreckage alive. He eventually becomes the leader of the Wakandan secret police, and takes on the White Wolf moniker.
