I stand with most other Marvel fans in seeking more solo movies,  namely for Bucky Barnes aka the Winter Soldier.

There are already several solo films in the Marvel franchise, including Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, the Hulk, Ant Man, Spider Man, etc. There are also a few in development, including Black Panther, Captain Marvel, Doctor Strange, and it is expected that Black Widow will also have her own spinoff.

But we want more. First and foremost, Bucky Barnes deserves a solo film. He has arguably made one of the greatest influences in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and on fans. That is in part due to the magnificent human known as actor Sebastian Stan, but other than that Bucky is a pretty incredible guy. Fans are so passionate about having a Winter Soldier stand alone movie, that they have taken to the internet to make it be known loud and clear how much they want it to happen.

Other than Bucky, it would be absolutely great if we could have solo films for iconic characters such as Hawkeye, Loki, Quicksilver, etc.

Hopefully, Marvel acknowledges what its audience wants, but it is understandable that we have no news on an upcoming Winter Soldier film. Marvel has it’s hands full up until 2020. The movies that are set to be released in the next four years include  Doctor Strange, Guardians of the Galaxy 2, Thor: Ragnarok, Avengers: Infinity War Part 1, Black Panther, Captain Marvel, and Avengers: Infinity War Part 2.

But aside from that, Marvel has three “Untitled” movies to be released in 2020. The Winter Soldier has to be among them. It has to.
