Avengers: Endgame star Sebastian Stan has revealed that he once gained too much muscle to fit into his Winter Soldier prosthetic arm.
While Sebastian’s Stan’s Bucky Barnes seemingly perished in the first Captain America movie, the character returned in the form of the Winter Soldier for the sequel. For his role as the Winter Soldier, Sebastian Stan had to wear prosthetics in order to bring the character’s robotic arm on the big screen.
However, a rumor circulated alleging Sebastian Stan had gained too much muscle to fit into his Winter Soldier prosthetic for Captain America: Civil War. During an interview with Men’s Health, Sebastian Stan admitted that he was in fact unable to fit into his Winter Soldier arm for the third Captain America film after building to much muscle. Here’s what he told the site:
“I was so insecure being around these massive fucking guys, so I started lifting really heavy and ate a lot. I remember I showed up, and I was a little bit bigger than I had been in The Winter Soldier. The arm was a bit tight. I was losing circulation.”
Sebastian Stan is set to reprise his role as Bucky Barnes in the Marvel Studios series The Falcon and the Winter Soldier for the Disney Plus streaming service.
The Falcon and Winter Soldier is currently set to be the first Marvel Studios series to debut on Disney Plus. Set after the events of Avengers: Endgame, the series is rumored to center on Sam Wilson and Sebastian Stan’s Bucky Barnes as the former finds himself facing resistance from the United States government and its opposition to him taking on the Captain America mantle.
Directed by Kari Skogland from scripts written by showrunner Malcolm Spellman and Derek Kolstad, The Falcon and Winter Soldier stars Anthony Mackie as Sam Wilson / Falcon, Sebastian Stan as Bucky Barnes / The Winter Soldier, Emily VanCamp as Sharon Carter, Daniel Brühl as Baron Helmut Zemo, and Wyatt Russell as John Walker / U.S. Agent.
The Falcon and Winter Soldier will debut on Disney Plus in late 2020. Stay tuned for the latest news regarding Sebastian Stan and the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
