Helmer of Thunderbolts*, Jake Schreier, has spoken about Bucky Barnes' introduction to the MCU supervillain story in an interview with ScreenRant.
In the interview, Schreier mentions Barnes' introduction to the film by saying:
"..there's a kind of meta angle to it"
Portrayed by Sebastian Stan, Bucky Barnes is an iconic character of the Marvel Universe that has experienced a plethora of transitions in the due course of his storyline. His positioning and stance have witnessed major shifts due to Hydra's manipulation, which has compelled him to become the nefarious Winter Soldier.
He used to serve in the US Army and has been a close confidante to Steve Rogers, a.k.a. Captain America. After coming out of the shackles of Hydra's influence, Barnes gets together with the team of Avengers for the downfall of Thanos. He later also joins forces with Sam Wilson as he seeks to redeem himself for his earlier actions..
Let us find out what more helmer Jake Schreier talks about Bucky Barnes' introduction to the upcoming Marvel movie Thunderbolts*.
"To have Sebastian Stan in your movie is such a privilege", says Jake Schreier, helmer of Thunderbolts*
In an interview with GamesRadar, Jake Schreier mentioned that all the characters in Thunderbolts* shall have a new beginning.
While speaking to ScreenRant, Jake Schreier was asked about Bucky Barnes' introduction to the film, referring to his intent to give a fresh start to the characters. Schreier has been all praises for Sebastian Stan, as well as mentioning his interest to explore a new growth to Barnes' character, as he explains:
"First off, just to have Sebastian Stan in your movie is such a privilege. But also, he's been through a lot of what they've been through, and he's resolved a lot of those arcs that they have not yet resolved. And so the challenge there was really like, "What is a new arc that we can take Bucky on?"
He further talked about Bucky Barnes' challenges as he embarks on a new journey with the squad in the film, as he navigates his discomfort. Schreier continues:
"This idea of watching him try to uncomfortably fit and embracing a new path, and wondering if there's some new path to helping the world. Having done all of this stuff and having been in so many of these movies, there's a kind of meta angle to it also. And then finding, I think as anyone would find, their frustrations in that - it's not as immediate as you would want it to be."
Jake Schreier then sheds light on the impact Barnes could have in the group, with the amount of wisdom that he can impart to them due to his experiences, as he adds:
"Maybe in the end, even though it seems so unexpected, this group of misfits could be exactly the right home for him because he has so much wisdom to offer them, having gone through what they have not yet processed."
