Sam Wilson aka Loki (Tom Hiddleston) and Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen) in nabbing their own small screen shows, the series is expected to feature Anthony Mackie and Sebastian Stan reprising their big screen roles.
Captain America's best buds first met in Avengers: Infinity War. Both of them were part of the unfortunate half of the universe who were snuffed out of existence following the Mad Titan's catastrophic snap, but as it turns out, the two will return, and with an adventure of their own in an in-development TV series.

Variety reports that Marvel Studios has tapped Empire writer Malcolm Spellman to write the proposed limited series featuring Falcon and Winter Soldier, making it the first out of all the planned shows to get a significant development movement. Both Disney and Marvel have declined comment for now.
As previously mentioned, both heroes are currently a pile of dust following Thanos' galactic genocide, but considering the two's narrative arc so far in the MCU, it's safe to say that the show will take place after the events of the twin Avengers sequels have been resolved. That means like Spider-Man (Tom Holland), Black Panther (Chadwick Boseman), Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson), and Maria Hill (Colbie Smulders), the two will be brought back to life one way or another in who now goes by the name White Wolf) and Sam only ever came together because of him. In fact, they're not even that fond of each other as highlighted in their bickering in Civil War, and have never spent time together without Steve.
Unfortunately, this report further highlights the fact that Netflix's Marvel TV shows Jessica Jones are known for. Considering that neither character deals with mystical elements, it could even end up being a complex action thriller like The Winter Soldier.
