Dalan Musson

Biography

Dalan Musson is an American screenwriter who has quickly risen from cult genre films to becoming a primary architect of major Hollywood blockbusters. He first gained industry attention for his work on the sci-fi comedy sequel "Iron Sky: The Coming Race", but his career breakthrough came within the Marvel Cinematic Universe. He served as a staff writer on the Disney+ series "The Falcon and the Winter Soldier" (2021), where he wrote the critically acclaimed fifth episode, "Truth". The episode's exploration of racial history and Sam Wilson's internal conflict was so well-received that Marvel Studios tapped him to co-write the feature film follow-up. In 2026, Musson is pivoting to video game adaptations. He is the screenwriter behind the massive live-action reboot of "Street Fighter" (October 16, 2026), directed by Kitao Sakurai. His script is reportedly a faithful adaptation of the "World Warrior" tournament arc, balancing the franchise's campy roots with the grounded character work he displayed in his Marvel projects. This major release follows his success with "Captain America: Brave New World", which was released in February 2025 and solidified Sam Wilson's place as the new Captain America.
