    What's the story

    Sebastian Stan turns 39 today!

    Many know the Romanian-American actor for his role as Bucky Barnes aka Winter Soldier from Marvel films, after he appeared in Captain America: The First Avenger, a 2011 release.

    Stan, in his recurring role as Carter Baizen, an old and troublesome acquaintance of the Upper East Side, in Gossip Girl is noteworthy.

    Greg Berlanti's mini-series Political Animals spun around the Hammond family and their political involvement.

    And, Stan charmed the viewers by playing the role of TJ Hammond.

    In the show, he is lovable, vulnerable, and has a struggling personality, who continuously makes an effort to make his family as proud as they are of his twin brother Douglas Hammond, played by James Wolk.

    Stan's character dazzled when Ricki and the Flash released.

    He played Joshua Brummel, the estranged son of Linda Brummel, essayed by veteran actor and three-time Oscar winner Meryl Streep.

    Streep was the focus, but Stan made an impact too.

    Based on Andy Weir's novel, The Martian premiered at TIFF on September 11, 2015, and became the 10th highest-grossing movie of 2015.
