10 Questions We Still Have About Avengers: Infinity War
7. Will Bucky Become Captain America?
Surely it's going to happen at some point, but is Infinity War the time or the place?
Bucky Barnes is one of a handful of characters to take on the Captain America mantel and wield the shield in the comics, and the stage is almost set for it ahead of the battle with Thanos.
Steve Rogers, of course, threw down the shield at the end of Captain America: Civil War and has been tipped to take on his Nomad identity in the next Avengers movie, which opens up a vacancy in the Cap department.
Bucky is the stand-out candidate for the job, providing they find a solution for his brainwashing, with the Falcon a rank outsider - but will Marvel Studios make the change now, or save it for the aftermath of Infinity War, when its shared cinematic universe will likely be a very different place?
