The loss of Peggy certainly made Bucky the last remaining part of his old self. He’s remembering home, who he is before this shield. Just who Steve was before he had this responsibility. When you lose Peggy, Bucky becomes so much more meaningful. That’s what motivates Steve to become selfish. You got the most selfless guy in comic books all of the sudden saying, ‘I care more about my relationship than what it means to you guys.’ The guy’s only looking for home and he’s found it with his current Avengers, but Bucky is that Achilles heel. It’s impossible– Pitting that against his current family, he chooses his old family. Which is, again, a little bit of selfish thing, but that’s something he’s never done before. It’s new territory. It’s a grey area that he hasn’t– He’s a very– Joe (Russo) uses this and I love it, that Steve’s a very binary guy. He’s this or that, and then with Bucky it becomes gray. And I think it’s tough for him. He chooses Bucky.
