I’m going to go ahead with a big fat YES on this one.
After you get to know the dynmic between the three main characters, a wolf pack of super heroes if you will, then you’ll need to know why this show matters.
If rumors are true, we’re picking up the series with the funeral of Captain America, aka Steve Rogers and you know that’s going to pack a wallop.
Sam is shown using the shield in the trailer and we find out in this movie just how he scored Cap’s legacy.
So grab your tissues (you WILL need it) and settle down for this Marvel movie before watching The Falcon and The Winter Soldier.
