The Winter Soldier Georges St-Pierre is Batroc the Leaper

[DarthSkywalker]

I am betting he gets a line or two. That is why they probably cast GSP. His accent.

Capitaine Amerik I am not very him-pressed wiz your performance

 

[Stringer]

I'm loving the vibe of Caps opening mission basically being an old school, side scrolling beat em up, complete with a boss fight at the end.

 

[The Caped Knight]

GSP's got the classic look of Batroc nice.

Why do you think I have this outrageous accent, you silly king? I don't want to talk to you no more, you empty-headed animal food trough wiper. I fart in your general direction. Your mother was a hamster, and your father smelled of elderberries.

GSP looks great! Love that they gave him colors and not just cop out and go all black. Can't wait for the new trailer Sunday!

 

[Mr. Dent]

love the translation. They kept the base comic design of a purple and yellow jumpsuit and made it work in a movie without having to completely forgo the comics. And they actually hired a French martial artist for the role. Bless you Marvel Studios.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

He is actually a Canadian. French Canadian, but still Canadian.

 

[Mr. Dent]

dammit close enough

 

[Gr0oT]

lol @ holy grail reference.

Also, he isn't French from France but they did incorporate Savate into the fight choreography which I find awesome.

it's pretty much the same outfit that Batroc wore during Brubaker's Cap run.

He then slammed Nick Fury and SHIELD on Fox for allowing the use of PEDs.

 

[Dark Raven]

The costume looks good but I do wish he had a cowl of some sort.

Hi res, click view image to see it in all its glory.

I just hope they remember that MCU Cap is superhuman, which means either Batroc is enhanced in some way, or else its going to be a very one-sided fight. Or at least a fight where Batroc is doing his best to dodge, strike, trip, and otherwise disorient and distract, moreso than actually *injure*.

Well reading the Evans interview from today he certainly makes it sound like there was a conscious effort to step up his super abilities in order to keep up with the Avengers.

So perhaps they've souped up Batroc as well with another Extremis and or SSS derivative?

In any case the powers will likely feel more balanced then they ever do in AoS.

Marvel Movies > Fox & Sony by a mile

Batroc costume > Fox's Quicksilver

 

[BullMcGiveny]

Batroc the Leaper. Porn parody version.

The Collector's costume > Fox's Quicksilver

 

[DebkoX]

FOX's Quicksilver is awful.

 

[Dasher10]

Why did it take so long for Marvel Studios to release a single pic of him?

 

[Raiden]

FOX's Quicksilver is awful.

It looks like it was made for a kid's show on Nick.

 

[Ms. Marvel]

FOX's Quicksilver is awful.

Understatement.

Seems to a be a small role. They probably don't think many care.
