So when Bucky shows upat a crucial pointin the new film its a surprise, but not really.
Everyone assumed hed show up at some point, it was just a question of when.
And, apparently, that question was something the team behind the movie struggled with too.

The question just became whats the most interesting and surprising way to see him?
At some points, he was there in the very beginning of the movie.
At some points, it was just at the very end of the movie.
I think that we landed on a place that was really fun and exciting and emotional.
One that, by the timeThunderboltscomes around, hell have won.
Seeing Sam and Bucky on screen together always makes a project better andBrave New Worldis no exception.
Heres hoping Sam can return the cameo favor in May inThunderbolts.
