Sebastian Stan Recalls Being ‘Terrified’ While Performing Captain America: Civil War Fight Scenes With Chadwick Boseman

CinemaBlend participates in affiliate programs with various companies. We may earn a commission when you click on or make purchases via links. Having been a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe for a decade, Sebastian Stan has done just about everything when it comes to fight sequences. The actor has had to learn fight choreography for a number of big moments, such as Bucky Barnes and Black Panther’s tussles in Captain America: Civil War. The scenes are filled with tension and add plenty of drama to the emotionally heavy film. While Stan had already performed a number of fights by that point, it turns out he was actually “terrified” when it came to performing those scenes with late friend and co-star Chadwick Boseman.

Sebastian Stan Says He Hoped To Work With Chadwick Boseman Again On Black Panther

Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan) was one of the first characters to appear on-screen alongside Chadwick Boseman's Black Panther. The two first appeared together in Captain America: Civil War, and went on to star together in Black Panther, Avengers: Infinity War, and Avengers: Endgame. Though Black Panther wasn't involved, members of the Dora Milaje even popped up in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. Due to Barnes' relationship with the fictional country of Wakanda, Stan tells Vanity Fair he was hoping to appear in future Black Panther properties right alongside Boseman.

Sebastian Stan “Always Hoped” to Work with Chadwick Boseman Again in a Black Panther Project

Sebastian Stan is the first to admit his limited knowledge of Marvel prior to joining its cinematic universe. “I never even knew anything about James ‘Bucky’ Barnes,” he told Vanity Fair’s Joanna Robinson on this week’s Little Gold Men. “I never knew anything about Captain America. I never read the comics.” Stan even purposefully avoided the source material when originally auditioning for the role of Steve Rogers. (Of course, Chris Evans was eventually cast.)
