Although Marvel Studios is looking forward to an exciting year of new content releases, it's been anything but easy getting back to the studio's current place of prominence. The worldwide pandemic caused difficulties for every studio in the business, but it happened to come at the most inopportune time considering where the MCU was going into 2020. Although Phase 3 and the Infinity Saga as a whole ended in 2019, the start of Phase 4 was delayed by more than six months from May 2020 to January 2021. This included starting the new slate of projects on Disney+ with WandaVision rather than in theaters with Black Widow , and  Black Widow  even had to debut with a dual theatrical/streaming release in July 2021.

His first appearance was all the way back in  Captain America: The First Avenger , and his latest was in  The Falcon and the Winter Soldier— not including his voice work in  What If...? . Starting as a friend to Chris Evan's famous hero, he then turns into a brain-washed villain, to a lost stranger, back to a close ally in the last two  Avengers  films. Now the character has co-starred in his own show, sharing the spotlight with Anthony Mackie's Captain America. Bucky Barnes has no doubt been through a lot. He's had a rough go of it, given his many decades under HYDRA's control; it feels like some of his most significant contributions to the MCU have been as a villain. He was the lead antagonist in  Captain America: The Winter Soldier  and went on to be the catalyst to breaking the Avengers apart, which led to them subsequently losing in  Infinity War .
