Frank Grillo To Reprise Crossbones Role In Marvel's THE AVENGERS Sequel?
Before we received confirmation that actor Frank Grillo is joining Marvel's anticipated sequel, Captain America: The Winter Soldier, comedian and radio host Matthew Aaron had first revealed a week earlier that the End of Watch actor was testing for the villain Brock Rumlow, Crossbones. Well, during a recent episode of Matthew Aaron's radio show, the host personally called up Frank Grillo, who was in the middle of filming Homefront, to congratulate him on landing the villainous role. And attempting to verify his sources, Aaron asked Grillo was he making more Crossbones appearances after Captain America: The Winter Soldier, to which Frank modestly confirmed.
Yeah, it's a good run, Frank Grillo said. But that's not all. After Grillo left the chat to finish beating Jason Statham's ass, for the Homefront filming, Matthew Aaron said that one of the upcoming films that Crossbones will appear in, is Joss Whedon's anticipated Marvel's The Avengers sequel. And that is according to Matthew Aaron's same Marvel rat that told him about Frank Grillo testing for the role. Aaron added that Grillo will apparently portray Crossbones in three films total, with the third Captain America movie presumably being his final one.
