“The Falcon and [the] Winter Soldier, I really enjoyed doing that show. I was actually excited to do a second season, just so me and Sebastian [Stan] can get paid to hang out,” he told the Radio Times. “Because it’s like me, him and Daniel Brühl. It’s kind of like the perfect storm of happiness.”
If you weren’t aware, Sebastian and Daniel are not slated to return in Captain America: Brave New World, which will hit theaters in February 2025.
Sebastian has played Bucky Barnes aka the Winter Soldier in the MCU since 2011, while Daniel has portrayed Baron Helmut Zemo in the franchise since 2016.
“When they decided to go back to the movies, it is what it is, but I don’t have my friends anymore, so it kind of dampens it a little bit,” Anthony admitted.
