Remember when the world was treated to an early Thanksgiving present when the first Captain America: Civil War trailer was released? The lengthy teaser offered a glimpse at what Sebastian Stan might consider his favorite fight scene starring Bucky Barnes, Captain America (Chris Evans) and Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.)!
Stan recently spoke to USA Today, where he shared how he reacted to seeing that particular sequence in Civil War.
"It's one of those days where the equivalent would be that scene in Apollo 13 when the astronauts come back and they've survived reentry to Earth and you cut to mission control and everyone's like 'Yeah!'" Stan said of the scene.
The fight sequence is more than just a three-way brawl between superheroes. As awesome as it looks, it also shows two friends who have finally been reunited and have to defeat a relatively good guy who is trying to get to the one who used to be a bad guy. Stan has an interesting way of seeing the situation.
"This is how I would look at it: It's three people and they're on a boat in the middle of the ocean, the boat is sinking and the boat may stay afloat with one less person on it," he said.
But who will have to get thrown overboard? Stan is quick to point out that Tony Stark doesn't stand a chance against the childhood friendship of Steve and Bucky.
"It's inevitable at that point because blood will always win in the end, and [Steve and Bucky] are really like blood brothers," he said.
In addition to the emotional level of the scene, Stan revealed that the sequence was so exciting to film because it all had to be done in just one take. He admitted that it took them 15 takes before they finally got it right and at one point, he and Evans had to go through the choreography on their own to make way for the CGI effects on Iron Man.
"You're just fighting air, which makes things more difficult," Stan admitted.
