Sebastian Stan is playing Bucky Barnes on Captain America: The First Avenger. His previous roles this past year were in Black Swan and Hot Tub Time Machine.
Here's a snippet from an interview he did with MTV about his role on the new Captain America movie.
MTV:" There have been many different iterations of Bucky over the years. What can you say about your Bucky?"
STAN:" I didn't know anything about the comic books. Even when I auditioned, I didn't. And I liked that, because I didn't want to have particular ideas. I wanted to find the characters and connections naturally. And I did. "
"Steve Rogers and Bucky are both orphans and kind of like brothers," Stan said, professing that he was unfamiliar with the comics before getting cast, "They kind of grow up together and look after each other. It's a very human, relatable thing. And growing up in the Army is a very specific thing. There's a certain way these guys carry themselves, there's a certain etiquette, a certain body posture, the way that they interact. So I went back and read the comics and watched a lot of documentaries on World War II. "Band of Brothers" was very helpful."
"I wanted to make sure I respected the themes in the comics that people related to about Bucky, but at the same time, in my head, we were shooting a movie that takes place in 1944 and it is about a bunch of guys going to war and how they're going to look out for each other. Bucky always protects and looks out for Steve Rogers. "
About the action scenes -
"There's a lot of CGI stuff and working with a green screen," Stan added of the effects work so far, "I hadn't done that too extensively before. That was very challenging, because you're just there surrounded by green walls, but there's explosions going off around you, so you have to factor that in and maintain that in your imagination."
