While the fans were thrilled to see one of their favorite actors Sebastian Stan, once again in the role of Bucky Barnes also known as Winter Soldier in the Marvel Cinematic Universe's superhero blockbuster television series The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, released on 19th March 2021, the actor's fans and followers have gotten another opportunity to be excited as Ed Brubaker, the comic book writer responsible for creating the fictional superhero character Winter Soldier alongside Steve Epting, is working on a live-action adaptation for a future comic project and he has announced that he will star Sebastian Stan as the lead actor in the film.
"We've had a bunch of movie interest, but nothing that's come to fruition yet," the 54-year-old comic writer Brubaker recently told The Hollywood Reporter. "Every time someone asks me who I want to play him, I'm like 'Sebastian Stan.' Not just because he was the Winter Soldier. Partly that. But because I think he'd be perfect for it. 'Come on! You could be in every scene instead of half of them.'"
During the discussion, Brubaker also talked about his ever-popular novel Reckless' third part which was released this week. "We were going to do the first three and take a break and do the other books and come back and do two or three more of the Reckless books," Brubaker told the trade. "But when [Robert] Kirkman read the first book, he was like, 'Why are you only doing three?' and I'm like, 'We're not stopping at three. I have an idea for a sequel to The Fade Out that I want to do. And I have this other slightly longer stand-alone graphic novel idea I want to do. And then after those we'll come back and do more.'"
He further added, "Kirkman was like, 'No! I want to see more of these guys. You've got to do at least five before you take a break.' So I was like, 'All right, fine, just for you. We'll do five.' Now I'm halfway through four and I'm plotting through five. I should listen to Kirkman more. I'm glad he convinced me to do that."
