episode 5. Featured Video Hide
The Falcon and the Winter Soldier‘s showrunner already dropped hints that episode 5 would include a surprise Marvel cameo, but no one could have guessed who it was. Arriving with zero foreshadowing but plenty of panache, beloved comedy actress Julia Louis-Dreyfus made her MCU debut as… Contessa Valentina Allegra de la Fontaine? Well, OK! Advertisement Hide
Contessa Valentina or Val, as she calls herself here is a relatively obscure character, introduced as a seductive spy in the classic 1960s Nick Fury comics. In the show, we meet her as a mysterious figure who offers to help John Walker after he’s been fired as Captain America. She’s a wealthy, powerful villain who undoubtedly wants to use Walker for her own ends. And she only appears in one scene, suggesting she’ll be a major player in the final episode next week.
