Marvel has officially announced that Daniel Brühl has joined the cast of Captain America: Civil War in a mystery role. Shortly after that, Deadline claimed that the Rush actor is set to play the villain in the film. Now, Variety notes that the villain will actually be the main nemesis seen in the Doctor Strange film. Brühl is probably best known for his role as creepy-yet-charming Frederick Zoller in Inglourious Basterds.
Studio chief Kevin Feige says: "With Daniel's ability to deliver intense, nuanced performances, we knew we had found yet another great actor to share the screen with some of our biggest heroes".
The 3rd Cap film will be an adaptation of the Captain America: Civil War storyline that sees Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.) at odds with Captain America (Chris Evans) over the Superhero Registration Act - a law that forces anyone with superhuman abilities to reveal their identities to the U.S. government and agree to act as a police force for the authorities. Stark supports the program, Rogers does not because it threatens civil liberties. As a result Rogers and various others go on the run to avoid arrest. The life of Cap's girlfriend, Agent 13 (Revenge star Emily VanCamp), is torn apart as her superiors use her divided loyalties against her. Elsewhere, a new villain emerges; the Red Skull begins to make himself known; and The Winter Soldier (Sebastian Stan) again comes face-to-face with Cap....
Chadwick Boseman will also be playing Black Panther in the film before getting a solo flick all to himself. Samuel L. Jackson's Nick Fury and Scarlett Johansson's Black Widow are also due to return. Anthony Mackie is poised to reprise the role Harlem crime fighter Falcon
The adapted script comes from Cap vets Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely from which Captain America: The Winter Soldier directors Anthony and Joe Russo will call action.
Production on the next film is slated to begin next April in Atlanta, Georgia. The studio has targeted a May 6th 2016 release.
Yes!I love Daniel Bruhl.
