‘Captain America 3’ Director Talks Gay Chris Evans Cap & Sebastian Stan Winter Soldier Rumors

It seems that two men can’t be close friends for eight and a half decades, wear spandex and eye liner and be considered gay anymore. Recently, Captain America 3: Civil War co-writer and director Joe Russo, spoke to reporters about the nature of Steve Rogers (Chris Evans) and The Winter Soldier/Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan) and if it is sexual or not. Because that is totaly a rumor and everything, apparently.

Writer/director Joe Russo recently spoke to reporters in Beijing, China, about if Captain America and Bucky’s relationship could be considered sexual, to which he answered (via Comicbookmovie):

"People can interpret the relationship however they want to interpret it.," said Joe Russo when oddly asked if Cap and Bucky's relationship is somewhat sexual in Civil War. "For us, we’ve always interpreted the relationship as two brothers. They’re very close characters, they have a relationship with each other that is very deep. The bond between them is very strong, [which is] what motivates the storytelling.

Russo went on to further explain the connection between Cap and Bucky, adding:

‘“These are both characters that came from nothing. Captain America was basically an orphan, and Bucky’s family took him in. When he was sleep for several years, he lost everything that was dear to him. And when he took the serum and became Captain America, he gave away a large part of himself for a patriotic cause. So, you have a character who is searching for the only thing that he has left from his past… and that’s Bucky. And people interpreted that relationship all kinds of ways and it’s great to see people argue about it what that relationship means to them."
