After “WandaVision” took Wanda Maximoff through the five stages of grief, Marvel’s next Disney+ series “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier” will force Bucky Barnes to unpack his decades of being a brainwashed assassin. Marvel heroes need therapy too.
“If you just take the reality of Marvel Cinematic Universe, Bucky is 106-year-old-man. People have messed with his brain over all those decades, and he’s gone from one fight to the next,” Malcolm Spellman, head writer for “Falcon and the Winter Soldier,” told TheWrap. “But now that we had the breadth of six episodes, we were like: ‘We’re gonna make him confront that and we’re going to make him deal with it.'”
Even though Marvel’s first two Disney+ series feature villains like Agatha Harkness (Kathryn Hahn) and Zemo (Daniel Bruhl), the real adversary their heroes have to defeat is the one inside their own heads.
