Looking all the way back to The First Avenger in 2011, Sebastian Stan’s portrayal of Bucky Barnes and subsequently the Winter Soldier over the years has been nothing short of impressive. Bucky continues to cry, bringing a fist to his mouth as he’s overcome with emotions. The Winter Soldier deprogramming was successful. As Ayo says the final word, “Freight car,” Bucky is shaking and tears begin to roll down his face. She then begins to recite the Russian trigger words for the Winter Soldier, “Longing, rusted, seventeen … ” Bucky interrupts her and tells her that it’s not going to work, and his face contorts with heavy emotions as flashbacks to his time as the Winter Soldier plague his mind. Sitting by a fire in the night, Ayo tells Bucky that “it is time.” Bucky stares into the flames and asks, “You sure about this?” and Ayo assures him that she won’t let him hurt anyone. Though Bucky did not react, Zemo noted that “something is still in there.” Later in the episode, Bucky had to slip back into the role of the Winter Soldier and pretend he was under Zemo’s control in Madripoor, which further exacerbated the issue.Ĭontinuing upon this, episode 4 (“The Whole World Is Watching”) opened with an incredibly emotional scene set in Wakanda six years prior. In episode 3, “Power Bower,” when Bucky approached Baron Zemo in his jail cell, the other man immediately began to recite the Winter Soldier trigger words in order to see how he would react.

#Next episode of falcon and winter soldier series#
Thus far, the series has revealed quite a few things about where Bucky’s at right now: he’s attending mandatory therapy sessions with Dr. So rather than a backstory when it comes to Bucky, The Falcon and The Winter Soldier is taking a careful and meaningful approach to his mental healing process while he sheds his past as a brainwashed assassin and reclaims his identity as James “Bucky” Barnes. Whereas we’re finally getting the long-awaited backstory for Anthony Mackie’s Sam Wilson, we’ve already seen much of the progression of Sebastian Stan’s Bucky Barnes starting with Captain America: The First Avenger.
As promised, Marvel’s hit new miniseries The Falcon and The Winter Soldier not only bolsters an action-packed story that feels consistent with the films, but the longer, episodic structure has also allowed the show to take a deep dive into character development.
