We're more than likely going to get a little tease of that buddy comedy while Bucky and Sam are on Wakanda, if there's enough time. During the film, Bucky loses his arm after a fight with Iron Man and he is later frozen. The next phase is going to show some pretty drastic changes in the MCU, so maybe there's room for a buddy comedy.įor now, we have Infinity War to look forward to, which is only a few weeks away now that Marvel Studios pushed the release date up one whole week. Civil War may be the most important film heading into The Falcon and the Winter Soldier because it introduces Baron Helmut Zemo into the MCU, flushes out Winter Soldier’s backstory, and shows hints of the relationship between Falcon and the Winter Soldier. We'll have to wait and see what happens after the dust settles in Infinity War and Avengers 4, since Bucky isn't even Winter Soldier anymore. Taika Waititi would probably be the best director for the job and it could end up as something unique and funny.
The reality of this spin-off movie with Winter Soldier and Falcon is a long shot, but stranger things have happened. It would end up with us beating the crap out of each other three or four times, I know it." So a spinoff would be great, but it would be like Nick Nolte and Eddie Murphy in 48 Hours, that would be our spin-off. "Sebastian is a damn good actor and he's a damn good friend, so I think our relationship - really, it's the three of us, he, ( Captain America actor) Chris Evans and I - our relationship kind of works really well because there's a mutual respect. Mackie also added that they might have to get physical a few times during the course of the movie, if it ends up becoming a reality. He too, mentioned the friendship between the two actors and mentioned that they have a "mutual respect" for each other. In a completely separate interview, Anthony Mackie expressed his interest in the Winter Soldier and Falcon Marvel spin-off movie. It's really just sort of in my head, like, 48 Hours or a buddy comedy from the '80s or the '90s. "To me, it's like Martin Brest film classic, Midnight Run, you know. He went on to compare the relationship to Midnight Run and iconic buddy comedy 48 Hours. I mean, the right people to make that happen are certainly within feet from us right now."īefore being asked about the possibility of the spin-off, Stan talked about the on-screen relationship between Bucky and Sam. He instantly said yes, and then mentioned that the people around the set are the ones who can make it happen. Sebastian Stan was interviewed on the set of Infinity War over the summer where he was asked about the possibility of a Falcon and Winter Soldier spin-off movie. However, there's no telling what the MCU is going to look like after the events of Infinity War and the still untitled Avengers 4, after Thanos gets finished. The two actors are close behind-the-scenes, and the idea of that style of movie being made in the Marvel Cinematic Universe would be pretty awesome. In two separate interviews, Captain America stars Anthony Mackie and Sebastian Stan said they'd love to make a Winter Soldier and Falcon spin-off movie in the style of 48 Hours.
