Sebastian Stan to Reprise Role as Winter Soldier in 'Avengers: Doomsday'

From Headtopics

Sebastian Stan, who has portrayed Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, will return to the role in the upcoming film 'Avengers: Doomsday'. Stan, who has played the character since 'Captain America: The First Avenger', shared his enthusiasm about reprising the role at the Cannes Film Festival. While superhero fatigue is not the biggest challenge facing the MCU post-'Avengers: Doomsday', Marvel has encountered a star problem, particularly in Phases Four and Five. The studio has struggled to create new stars with recent releases, relying instead on legacy characters. 'Avengers: Doomsday' is expected to set up the future of the MCU, but it remains to be seen how Marvel will address the issue of introducing new characters to lead the next phase.
