Marvel Studios filming in downtown Griffin

Between Dec. 16-20, 2019 Marvel Studios will be filming a new limited-series “Tag Team” for the Disney+ streaming platform.

GRIFFIN, Ga. — One of the next major productions coming from Marvel is heading to the streets of Griffin.

Between Dec. 16 and 20, Marvel Studios will be filming a new limited-series for the Disney+ streaming platform.

In a memo sent by the City of Griffin, officials noted  “the areas of high impact are Downtown Griffin on State Alley between Taylor St and Solomon St”.

Motorists should expect some delays throughout the area.

 "Tag Team" is the working title for "The Falcon & The Winter Soldier."

The projects  includes some of the characters from the Marvel Cinematic Universe in their own adventure, following on from the events of the blockbuster "Avengers: Endgame". 

Last month, we told you about “The Falcon and The Winter Soldier" beginning production.

Actors Sebastian Stan and Anthony Mackie, who star as Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier and Sam Wilson/Falcon, did an Instagram video documenting their first day on set.

“Marvel has asked me to take over this account so I’m shutting it down. Marvel Style – VIP status. It’s Falcon all day," Mackie said.

Sebastian chimed in and announced his takeover to the account.

“Well, I don’t know what he’s talking about. I’m the one who's really been around for a long time. He’s wrong and I’m right so there’s that,” Stan added.

After posting solo video clips, the two finally came together to make the official announcement.

“The Falcon and The Winter Soldier is now in production,” the duo attempted to say in unison.

Mackie then solidified day one on-set by posting photos of the actors' chairs on Twitter with the caption, “ And so it begins! Welcome back guys... #TheFalconandtheWinterSoldier #PlayBoys #Legdaysaveslives #setlife #Marvel."

According to Marvel, Emily VanCamp will reprise her role as Sharon Carter, and Wyatt Russell will be playing John Walker, a character fans of the franchise are familiar with.

Fans will be able to start streaming on Disney+ beginning Nov. 12.

You can expect to see "The Falcon and The Winter Soldier" when it launches in 2020.
