Captain America: The Winter Soldier remains to this day one of the most critically-acclaimed and beloved comic book films ever made.
The relationship was only further strengthened too in this year’s Captain America: Civil War, which literally saw Captain America fighting some of the other Avengers in order to protect Bucky.
This would, of course, keep in line with how things went down in the comics, and would allow the Captain America character to stay in the MCU, even after Evans’ run ended.
Right now, his fate in the MCU is still a mystery, with many speculating that he could show up at some point in the Black Panther film, and others believing he really won’t return until Infinity War.
