VIDEO : Directors Explain Why Captain America Chose Sam Over Bucky

As of Monday morning, the directors of Endgame have confirmed that spoilers are now fair game.
With that in mind, Anthony and Joe Russo are diving into all of the most spoiler-filled topics from the movie.
They were asked about Cap passing his shield and mantle to Sam Wilson rather than Bucky Barnes.
While Bucky has long been Steve Rogers' best friend, the creative team behind Endgame felt...
...Sam's story and character were much more closely aligned with Captain America.
When it came time for a new Captain America to be named, there really wasn't any debate about it.
