A set of behind the scenes photos from The Falcon and The Winter Soldier have given us a new look at major X-Men location.

Since The Falcon and the Winter Soldier was officially announced, many have wondered just what kind of story Marvel would tell with it. While exact details on the upcoming Disney+ series are hard to come by we do know that at least part of the show will take place in a major X-Men location. Specifically, in the city of Madripoor.

In the comics, Madripoor is something akin to a Marvel Universe version of Deadwood. The nation is one that generally keeps itself isolated from the laws and bindings of the rest of the Marvel world. As a result, it is often a haven for criminals with a massive gap between the rich and the poor and is subject to frequent takeovers by supervillains. The setting often used in X-Men stories and was first introduced in The New Mutants #32 in 1985. However, now the X-Men city will be used for the first time in the Marvel Cinematic Universe in The Falcon and The Winter Soldier.

While we still don’t know how big of a role Madripoor will play in The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, we know have an idea as to what the city may look like. Thanks to Murphy’s Multiverse we have a behind the scenes look at the X-Men city that shows something rather bleak. You can see the full image at the site.

What do you all make of these images? Are you excited to see that The Falcon and The Winter Soldier will feature the X-Men city? Let us know what you think in the comments below!

Here is the official synopsis for the Marvel Studios series:

Following the events of “Avengers: Endgame,” Sam Wilson/Falcon (Anthony Mackie) and Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier (Sebastian Stan) team up in a global adventure that tests their abilities—and their patience—in Marvel Studios’ “The Falcon and The Winter Soldier.”

Directed by Kari Skogland from scripts written by showrunner Malcolm Spellman and Derek Kolstad, the series stars Anthony Mackie as Sam Wilson / Falcon, Sebastian Stan as Bucky Barnes / The Winter Soldier, Emily VanCamp as Sharon Carter, Daniel Brühl as Baron Helmut Zemo, and Wyatt Russell as John Walker / U.S. Agent. Actors Desmond Chiam, Miki Ishikawa, Noah Mills, and Carl Lumbly have also been cast.

The Falcon and The Winter Soldier will premiere exclusively on Disney Plus in August 2020. Stay tuned for all the latest news regarding The Falcon and The Winter Soldier and be sure to subscribe to Heroic Hollywood’s YouTube channel for more great video content.
