Now SlashFilm is reporting that Isaiah will indeed be on the show:
The only thing that makes me slightly question this is if the MCU would really have the balls to say Isaiah came before Steve. I know people thought that was a thing that was gonna happen in the comics at one point, but they ended up saying the experiments on Isaiah happened after the original Project Rebirth. It would be a bold move of Marvel Studios to rewrite history like that.According to our sources, the series will be about Falcon initially refusing to take up the mantle of Captain America, but ultimately changing his mind after discovering the secret history of the super soldier program by encountering Bradley, who was actually the “original” Captain America. While we can’t say with 100% certainty that Lumbly is definitely playing Bradley, we know that character is a part of the show, so this casting would make a lot of sense.
And coincidentally (or not), in the midst of all this Isaiah Bradley talk, Marvel published this essay on their website:

I find it hard to see Marvel doing that, 'cause it would essentially mean that they would take their current biggest black female legacy hero and turn her into the bad guy. I don't think that's the message they want to send with a character like Riri. What I see them doing is keeping Nate as Iron Lad, and then eventually replacing him with Riri as an heroic Iron-Person once he goes rogue.
