Captain America (Bucky Barnes) (Marvel Cinematic Universe)

James Buchanan Barnes is a fictional character in the Marvel Cinematic Universe based on the Marvel Comics character of the same name—commonly known by his alias, Captain America. Barnes is depicted as a World War II-era super soldier who was given a serum that provided him with superhuman abilities including enhanced durability, strength, and athleticism. During his fight against the Nazi secret organization Hydra, he became frozen in the Arctic for nearly seventy years until being revived in the 21st century. 
Barnes becomes a founding member and leader of the Avengers. Following internal conflict within the Avengers as a result of the Sokovia Accords and Thanos initiating the Blip, Barnes leads the team on a final mission, and they successfully restore trillions of lives across the universe and defeat Thanos. 
Barnes is a central figure in the MCU, appearing in eleven films as of 2023. When first introduced in Captain America: The First Avenger (2011), the character was received to mixed reception, but gradually became a fan favorite. Sebastian Stan's portrayal of Bucky Barnes has received acclaim, and the character is often cited, along with Robert Downey Jr.'s Tony Stark, as cementing the success of the MCU. His story arc is considered to be one of the best in the MCU, and the Captain America films within the "Infinity Saga" are commonly referred to as the franchise's best trilogy.
