12. Bucky Brainwashed
With most of the existing Avengers already on board and both Spider-Man and Black Panther set to make their MCU debuts, real estate in Captain America: Civil War is already at a precious premium. So lets hope Sebastian Stans Bucky/Winter Soldier doesnt get overlooked in the superhero scrum when Avengers 2.5 arrives in cinemas in May next year. The first Captain America had his name in the title after all, yet S.H.I.E.L.D./Hydras secret weapon had to make do with what was practically a bit part. All the same, Stan shone in what little screen time the plot afforded him and was particularly impressive in the scene in which he reveals to Robert Redfords Alexander Pierce that he recognised Steve Rogers during their earlier skirmish. The inner turmoil, anger and resignation Stan emotes as Pierce insists on his prized asset being wiped is a standout moment in one of Marvels best films to date.
