MovieCastingCall.orghas put out a new casting call forMarvel’s highly-anticipatedPhase ThreesequelCaptain America: Civil War, which not only reveals that production will begin this April in Atlanta, Georgia, but seemingly confirms the villainous identity ofDaniel Brühl’s character, after hesigned on to star in November. While it has always been suspected thatDaniel Brühlis playing the villain, this casting call claims to reveal that the actor is playing Baron Zemo, a nefarious Hydra villain from the Civil War comics. In addition, the casting notice also has the first synopsis forCaptain America: Civil War, which reads as follows.
“InCaptain America: Civil War, billionaire Tony Stark is pitted against Captain America aka Steve Rogers in an ethical face-off over the U.S government’s Superhuman Registration Act, which requires all super powered individuals to register their powers and report to S.H.I.E.L.D.”
What’s interesting is that, at the end of last year’sCaptain America: The Winter Soldier, the entire S.H.I.E.L.D. organization was disbanded, so its possible that eitherAvengers: Age of Ultron,Ant-Manor the TV seriesMarvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.may feature the agency being rebuilt in some manner, beforeCaptain America: Civil Warhits theaters in May 2016.Chris Evanswill return as Captain America, alongsideRobert Downey Jr.as Iron Man,Frank Grilloas Crossbones andChadwick Bosemanas Black Panther. The casting call also seemingly confirms thatScarlett JohanssonandSebastian Stanwill reprise their roles as Black Widow and The Winter Soldier, respectively.
