Avengers: Secret Wars
Summary
TheMCUhas its official Steve Rogers substitution lay out in stone , butAvengers : Secret Warscould still make my Bucky Barnes Captain America dream make out dependable . Sebastian Stan ’s Bucky see the attention of many fan when he was introduced as Steve ’s serious friend inCaptain America : The First Avenger . Bucky ’s MCU storyhas come a long way since then , from escaping decease to becoming a impermanent villain . One thing that was always expected was that Bucky would take over as Captain America when Steve ’s time was up , but the MCU has strayed from that possibility .
While I am lamentable that we ’ve yet to see Bucky as Captain America on the big projection screen , Sam Wilson taking over the mantlemakes terminated sense for the tale that ’s unfolded in the MCU . Sam was just as loyal a partner to Steve as Bucky was , andBucky ’s path of atonement inThe Falcon & The Winter Soldierwas a much better direction for himthan rush into the Captain America function . Even thoughBucky ’s MCU future is set forThunderbolts * , there ’s still one last chance for Bucky to take up the Captain America blanket in the MCU .
Introduced in Captain America : The Winter Soldier , Sam Wilson has become a long - tenured Heron of the MCU and the Avenger ’s fresh de - facto leader .

Bucky’s Captain America Could Appear In Avengers 5 Or 6 Thanks To The MCU Multiverse
Bucky Barnes Became Captain America For A Time In Marvel Comics
I , along with many Marvel fans , like to conceive that there ’s an alternate timeline where Bucky did become Captain America . What sound like aspiring intellection could in reality become a realness thanks to the Multiverse Saga . The epoch has already allow us with Hayley Atwell ’s Peggy Carter acting as a Captain America variant , and the concept of the multiverse makes any cameo possible , such as John Krasinski ’s Reed Richards and Channing Tatum ’s Gambit . By this logic , it would n’t be too difficult of a task for Marvel to have a variance of Captain America played by Sebastian Stan cameo in the MCU .
The perfect project for Stan to make this cameo would be the upcomingAvengersfilms , asboth are certain to be heavily multiverse - focused . DoomsdayandSecret Warswill likely be thebiggest battle that the MCU heroes have ever struggle , so they will need all the help they can get . Having Stan ’s Captain America version appear for a few scenes would actually make sense in the linguistic context of the twoAvengersfilms , so the cameo could work without being drive into another project .
Why The MCU Has To Give Us Bucky Barnes' Captain America At Least Once
The MCU Has Teased Bucky’s Cap A Few Times
The reason so many fans expected Bucky to take up the Captain America mantle is because he does so in the comics . Before Anthony Mackie ’s Sam was cast , many visualise Stan in the Captain America role after Chris Evans . However , Sam was the right choice for the MCU ’s next Captain America , and Bucky seems satisfied aim a backseat . A Bucky Barnes Captain America cameo is n’t necessary to the MCU ’s story , but incorporating it would be a nice nod to the comics and the devotee . It would also deliver on all the teases in preceding MCU movies , where Bucky pick up Steve ’s carapace .
Sam Wilson thespian Anthony Mackie confirmed Sebastian Stan ’s Bucky Barnes wo n’t be in Captain America : Brave New World , which is a upright affair .
The Multiverse Saga is the salutary time for Stan to make a cameo as Captain America , as it’densure he gets to roleplay the character at least once before his Marvel contract run out . Having his cameo strictly be a multiversal variant would also ensure that none of Sam ’s limelight is taken forth from his Captain America role in the main MCU . It may be a stretching to keep hope live for a Bucky Barnes Captain America cameo , but I ’m trust that eitherAvengers : DoomsdayorAvengers : Secret Warscan deliver on this ambition casting .
