Sebastian Stan Reveals Why He Would Not Allow Bucky’s Arm to be CGI
In a world of CGI, Sebastian Stan insists on shouldering the weight of Bucky’s arm in real life.
It’s amazing, it’s also like, right now, yeah, you feel a cool breeze on the back of your neck. It’s not too bad. Um, I just finished a movie in Norway called Fjord, and I did it for that. Yeah. So I just got, literally, here two days ago. So my jet lag is pretty interesting right now. It makes this experience even more trippy.
Sebastian Stan is on the move, literally.Between promotingThunderbolts*, wrapping up filming for a new movie, and preparing to filmAvengers: Doomsday, maybe the haircut really will save him time in the mornings.

One thing he is looking forward to is working with Robert Downey Jr.
No, I haven’t done anything yet. I think I’m hearing, maybe at some point in May, I’ll be going over there. But today apparently is day one, according to Kevin Feige, so, [it] should be interesting. Uh, Robert Downey Jr…I mean, who wouldn’t? Who doesn’t? I just think he’s one of our greatest actors, you know, that we have right now. I mean, just watching him kind of consistently reinvent himself and then, you know, reinvent these characters and this new take and what he’s gonna do here it’s gonna be quite interesting, so yeah, it’ll be fun.
