Marvel Announces Sebastian Stan's Bucky's Surprising Role In Next Movie*

Marvel Studios confirmed that Sebastian Stan"s Bucky Barnes will be filling a new role in an upcoming MCU film, and it"s one that may take fans by surprise. 
While Sam Wilson"s Falcon became the new Captain America at the end of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier on Disney+, Bucky"s future was left unknown.
It wasn"t until the 2022 D23 Expo that Bucky was confirmed to be joining the cast of 2024"s Thunderbolts, a government-commissioned team of anti-heroes. 
Now that Phase 5 of the MCU is officially underway, Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige has revealed just what the Winter Soldier"s position within this ragtag team will be, and it"s not one that was expected. 
Bucky Barnes" Phase 5 Role MarvelIn talking about Thunderbolts with Entertainment Weekly, Kevin Feige confirmed that Bucky Barnes is the "de facto leader" of the Thunderbolts team:

"That"s another one. We"ve got a lot of things that start shooting relatively soon. What"s fun about that, and I sort of said this at D23, is that they are barely heroes. None of them would consider themselves heroes. When your de facto leader is Bucky Barnes, that"s sort of all you need to know. That"s the trickle down."

In the concept art shown at the 2022 D23, Florence Pugh"s Yelena Belova was at the center of this team of "barely heroes," leading some to believe that she was at the helm with Julia Louis-Dreyfus" Val working in the background. 
But even though Bucky is the Thunderbolts point man, Feige still took time to discuss Yelena, as well as David Harbour"s Red Guardian, saying:

"But again, it goes to the amazing work that [casting director] Sarah Finn has done across the whole MCU. You"ve got David Harbour and Florence Pugh and these people who are at the top of their game and popping in everything they"re doing. They"re already here and established in the MCU, and we get to build the movie around them."

Thunderbolts arrives in theaters on July 26, 2024.
