In a recent interview with Vanity Fair, Sebastian Stan talked about playing Bucky Barnes in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In a piece on the actor, Stan was asked about his character’s connection to Wakanda and the possibility of seeing him in a future Black Panther project.
Here is part of that interview:
Because of Bucky’s connection to Wakanda, I think a lot of people are hoping to see you maybe in future Wakanda stories. I know you don’t know anything. I know they don’t tell you anything. I know, even if they did, you couldn’t tell me anything. But is that something you would want to do?
“Absolutely. I mean, just like thinking about it now with the whole Chadwick [Boseman] thing is just so crazy. With him, I was always really enamored because I remember on that Civil War movie we met and he had come in and he was new and it’s sort of the introduction of his character. And I was like, “Oh my God, this guy is going to blow everyone away.” You know what I mean? There was such a commitment and dedication to everything he was doing.
It was just so crazy. And we had a lot of these fight sequences and I remember being terrified of going into those scenes with him. And we went for it. We really went for it. Because I was like, “Okay, he’s really showing up. I got to stand tall. I got to show up.” And then afterwards we would just do these little fist bumps, like, “Cool, we’re good.”
Stan continued:
“Then after we shot, I spent some time, a little bit, when we would tease each other on these press tours and we would be laughing. It was really cool. And I just, in my head, I’d always hoped that there was just going to be more. So it’s just crazy to even wrap my mind around the idea of being in any world without him there. I just can’t even imagine it really in my mind. But obviously I always felt like, in my little scene at the end of Black Panther, I was always like, “Ah, I’m part of the war. I’m part of that movie.” I felt so good—that little scene.”
What’d you think of Stan’s connection to Wakanda and would you like to see him in Black Panther 2?
