The Falcon and The Winter Soldier executive producer Nate Moore recently called episode five the strongest in the Marvel series.

Two more episodes remain for The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, and its creators are hyping up the penultimate episode coming later this week to Disney Plus. Not only has showrunner Malcolm Spellman teased episode five will make audiences cry, but he later teased a major Marvel character will also make their debut.

On a recent episode of Vanity Fair’s Still Watching podcast, The Falcon and The Winter Soldier executive producer Nate More added to the hype by saying he believes episode five is the Marvel show’s strongest episode:

“I think episode four is going to be a lot of people’s favorite episodes for some action reasons and some big character turns, but five I think really gets to be the culmination of the theme. And I do think it’s both from an acting standpoint, from a filmmaking standpoint, I think is our strongest episode. Episode five I think gets to bring a lot of the threads that maybe felt disparate or not fully formed together. So you sort of get to see again the conversation the show is going to try to have with the audience.”

Here is the official synopsis for the Marvel Studios series:

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.
