Sharon Carter (middle) is here to help our heroes

Also returning to the series is Sharon Carter played by Emily VanCamp who will be giving our heroes some much needed help.

We last saw her in Captain America: Civil War, so we hope the series will fill us in on what she's been up to since!

Meet Zemo, but who is the man behind the mask?

Another character we haven't seen since Civil War will be making a return to our screens, that will be Daniel Brühl as Zemo!

Daniel Brühl's character was the villain who set up the big fall out in Captain America: Civil War. The villain is back on our screens with a new look, a mysterious purple mask - so what mayhem is he causing for our heroes this time?

When can we watch it?

The series will be available to watch for Disney+ subscribers, from 19 March. Episodes will be released on the streaming platform weekly.

Not long after, another Marvel TV show will drop, another fan favourite character, Loki, will be getting his own series which is expected to drop on 11 June 2021.
