‘The Falcon & The Winter Soldier’: Sebastian Stan Speaks On Tone Of The Series

The Falcon and the Winter Soldier actor Sebastian Stan has said that the tone of the series is thee same with that of Captain America: The Winter Soldier.

Stan’s role as Bucky Barnes was introduced to the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe) in Captain America: The First Avenger (2011).

Bucky was Steve Rogers’ only friend and was reincarnated as the deadly assassin, The Winter Soldier, when Hydra agents got hold of him after the events of the first movie.

As the Winter Soldier, Bucky fought Cap and came close to ending the life of his friend (the latter chose to stop fighting, hoping that his friend would find his way back).

Bucky managed to regain what was left of his humanity and stood with the Avengers in their epic fight against the Mad Titan, Thanos.

Now, Sebastian Stan has compared the tone of the series to that of the second Cap movie, saying that it was one of his favorite experiences.

“In a lot of ways, it felt like a movie. Again, we are not finished; we still have some stuff to do. What I loved about it was that, tonally, it was very much in the same world that Captain America: The Winter Soldier was, which was one of my favorite experiences that I’ve ever had. Period.

So, in a sense, it was grounded and very much in the world as we know it. But, it’s also really jam-packed with a lot of massive, massive action scenes mixed with deep focus on character. That what’s really exciting about this. We are getting to keep it in the world of the movies, so it’s recognizable that way. But at the same time, these characters are getting so much more mileage for all of us to explore them.

We can put them in situations that we’ve never been able to put them in before because you now have six hours as opposed to two. It’s always a discovery.”
