Bucky Barnes, Captain America's best friend, is also known as The Winter Soldier. While he had the capability of rising to the position of main protagonist in standalone films, Marvel reduced him to being a simple side character with limited exploration of his backstory. If his storyline were better integrated, he could have been a testament to the profound themes of redemption and guilt and could have also become a symbol of friendship and freedom.
