13 Last Minute Questions For Captain America: Civil War
12. Did Bucky Actually Kill The Starks?
The Question: We know that Tony Stark's parents Howard and Maria were killed by HYDRA, who made it look like a car accident, but there are still so many questions about that fateful day. Namely, was it The Winter Soldier who pulled the trigger?
The Likely Answer: This just sounds too dramatically potent not to be true. It would add so much gravity and weight to Tony's desired to bring Bucky down and widen the gap between Iron Man and Cap, while also making Cap's siding with him even more morally ambiguous.
If they don't go this admittedly fairly predictable route, it would feel like a majorly missed opportunity. Sometimes it's worth taking the obvious path when it has so much ripe potential for the actors, characters and overall narrative. It seems almost dead certain unless Marvel Studios are just playing another classic misdirect.
