The story follows the acclaimed comic storyline The Winter Soldier by author Ed Brubaker, who along with artist Steve Epting, in which Captain America's (Chris Evans) sidekick Bucky (Sebastian Stan) is resurrected as a brainwashed super-assassin known as the Winter Solider. The tale also follows that Peggy's (played by Hayley Atwell in Captain America: The First Avenger) niece Sharon (Revenge star Emily VanCamp) meets Cap.
Evans thinks that the main arc of this film is seeing how this good very moral guy comes to grips with the much more complicated reality of modern politics:
"For Steve, it's about what is right. He's relatively acclimated to the modern day — it's not tech shock anymore, he's not just like, ‘What's a cellphone?' It's more about, given his situation, given the company he works for, what are we doing that's the right thing? How much privacy, civil liberties are we willing to compromise for security? It's pretty crazy how relevant it is right now."
The actor also talked about why Steve Rogers and Anthony Mackie's Sam Wilson (aka Harlem crime fighter Falcon) decide to work together:
"Meeting Mackie's character, he used to serve, now he works at the VA counseling guys who come home with PTSD— they connect on that level. I think they're both wounded warriors who don't bleed on other people. Cap has no one to bleed on. I think Mackie knows how to handle people like that. … Sometimes when things are bad, trusting a stranger is the way to go."
