Actor Wyatt Russell made his Marvel Cinematic Universe debut last week in the final moments of the series premiere of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, which marked a surprising reflection of his own acting career, as he recently noted that his very first acting audition was for Steve Rogers in Captain America: The First Avenger. Russell did admit, however, that he didn’t assume he was actually in consideration for the role, more that it was an opportunity to see if he had what it took to go out for any further acting opportunities, with his current MCU ironically being the successor to Rogers with the Captain America mantle.
