The Winter Soldier Captain America 2: News and Speculation - Part 1

[BullMcGiveny]

You can't link directly to CBM.com here. SHH is a-feudin' with 'em. But what Toby says there is that he hasn't been contacted yet to play Zola again, but the script is still being reworked, and he'd be happy to reprise his role.

So, still up in the air.

They're two and a half months away from shooting, though.

At this stage, they most definitely have a shooting script. They're well past the point of deciding which characters to include and into the concept/design phase. Anthony Mackie has read the script, and has even seen his costume for the movie.

likely if he's in it it's only a scene or two, and not something crucial. I hope he is, I like him (the actor, and wouldn't mind seeing the character again either)

....Who, Falcon? He's a MAJOR player in this movie. He's Cap's right hand man.

More news about Cap keeps coming in, over at The Site Which Cannot Be Named. It features recent interviews with Sebastian Stan and ScarJo, who are very excited about reprising their roles in CATWS. ScarJo sounds especially happy about getting back into the catsuit.

I'm talking about Toby Jones /Arnim Zola there.

Okay.
Yeah, I'm just not feeling Zola. Hopefully, they'll go with a better Main Boss, like Zemo or Faustus or Lukin.

Don't know if anyone else has seen images or the show, but I just saw Sebastian Stan in Picnic on Broadway last week. The guy has lost a lot of body fat and is in damn good shape. Does a great job in the show too.

 

[chamber-music]

They still haven't announced who the second villain is have they?

Nikolaj Coster-Waldau and Josh Holloway's names came up in the casting rumors for villains but besides Frank Grillo landing Crossbones we haven't heard nothing on who the other villain might be and who is playing him.

I could see Czech actor Karel Roden (Hellboy, The Borne Supremacy, Blade 2) playing a Cap villain. Perhaps he could play Baron Heinrich Zemo.

Bruno Ganz from Downfall and The Unknown would make a great Baron Zon Strucker too.

 

[TheVileOne]

Just too bad Hugo Weaving was so sour on being Red Skull. Would've liked to see him come back.

 

[Webfoot Hero]

Casting news seems to have completely stopped since we last found out that Frank Grillo and Anthony Mackie were added. With filming starting in about 2.5 months, it's kind of odd that they wouldn't give whoever they are going to hire some heads-up so they could do whatever type of training they need for their role.

They probably have; they just haven't released that info to the public yet.

 

[Crimson King]

Where's Roger Wardell when you need him? He's probably set to announce that "fans will go crazy" when they learn who the villain is in Cap 2.

We posted photos of Stan in Picnic on one of these threads a few days ago. He definitely has gotten himself into terrific shape.

So Joe Cunningham of HeyUGuys just talked to Toby Jones on the red carpet Critics Circle Awards and Jones confirmed he got the call from Marvel that his back for Cap 2.

Completely agree - I loved Weaving's Skull.


Dang, I didn't realize Stan was that ripped.

Cool, now begs the question-- flashback or robot form? Probably flashback (showing those experiments he did on Bucky that allowed him to survive the fall from the train), but it's pretty open at this point.

Think you hit the nail on the head with that, mate.

Probably both.
I still hope that Zola isn't the "mastermind" villain, though....just a secondary one.

But Zola probably *is* the mastermind villain.

Crap.

Why not both? That's what I think it'll be.

 

[Son of Coul]

It certainly could be. I wouldn't doubt that either.

 

[marvel_freshman]

Here's the video of HeyUGuys' interview with Jones. Skip to the very end.

I hope he isn't. But maybe we'll get an unknown for Zemo so that he keeps his mask on the whole time like Darth Vader did in the original trilogy.

 

[R_Hythlodeus]

cool. hoped so. that certainly helps to bind the films together.

 

[Christopher_M]

the rumor was Marvel was looking to fill a role of a foreign villain as well...that went alongside that Crossbones was the American villain they were casting..Frank Grillo took that role but seems like that other villain hasn't been cast just yet.. perhaps Strucker or Zemo..

good to hear Toby is back.. they kept hinting a couple of times about his robot body let's hope ends up with one in the sequel..

I'd prefer Zemo, although if I am honest, I wouldn't mind seeing them both. Strucker could have more of a supporting role this time round with Zemo in the lead. Should they be Barons though?

THANK YOU for posting those Sebastian Stan gifs. I knew he was in shape (from Political Animals), but... MRWOAR!! Between Mackie, Stan, Evans, Grillo and the possibility of Holloway or Coster-Waldau joining this cast, I demand shirtlessness. Much shirtlessness. Clothing optional for this flick.

Kidding. Kinda.

Great news about Toby Jones. I love him as an actor, even though the thought of Zola onscreen kind of scares me.
