Sebastian Stan in 'The Falcon & The Winter Solide
Marvel Studios/Disney

Well, now that Robert Downey Jr.’s Iron Man is dead, Chris Evans’ Captain America is old and retired for good, and Chris Hemsworth’s Thor is still out of shape, the Marvel Cinematic Universe is suffering a serious lack of beefcake.  But it seems that Sebastian Stan is ready to step in to quench any thirst.  Bucky Barnes is stepping up to the A-list in the upcoming Disney+ series ‘The Falcon and the Winter Soldier’ and… I’m gonna go out on a limb here and assume that he has some shirtless scenes lined up.  (If not, what a waste!)

Check out this thirst trap proud proof of hard work that Stan shared on Instagram (because that’s 98% of what the ‘Gram is for):

If you have any doubt of Stan’s progress, here is a screencap of his shirtless torso from ‘Captain America: The Winter Soldier’, roughly six years ago.

Still in great shape, but definitely not as cut as in his most recent pic.  (Then again, he probably posted that after doing 500 crunches.)

But as buff as he is, he didn’t land the most recent cover of Men’s Health.  That honor went to his co-star Anthony Mackie, a.k.a. Sam Wilson, The Falcon:

Well, take your pick!

Stan and Mackie will be on full display when ‘The Falcon and the Winter Soldier’ arrives on Disney+ in Fall 2020.
