That sounds good to me. I'd even like it more if it was Baron Zemo.
See one of my favorite aspects about the Red Skull is that for most of his appearance he lived in the cloned body of Steve Rogers. I'd like for the Red Skull to die during WWII and maybe have the Masters of Evil trying to get their hands on the Cosmic Cube (I'd say that's a pretty big reason to bring together The Avengers). This is something that they could not only use to bring back The Red Skull better than ever (using Steve Rogers' DNA) but it's a threat big enough for a god like Thor to get involved.
Just my idea though. I think the Masters of Evil being lead by these big heads would be great. Baron Von Strucker, Baron Zemo, The Red Skull, The Leader, and maybe Loki and the Mandarin. Not necessarily all physical threats but they're a group of the most dangerous minds on the planet. Plus you just know a guy like The Red Skull will want to lead and the rest of the group will resent him. Their own hubris would be their downfall and the cosmic cube certainly would not be helping since it warps your head anyway.
Actually the cube's a good way to keep Loki on a short leash now that I think about it. Not to mention bringing guys like Abomination and a new Iron Monger into the mix. Really make it a meeting of minds that S.H.I.E.L.D. can't handle.
Sound cluttered? Hell yeah. I'm just throwing thoughts out there.![]()
That'd work well for an Avengers movie. If they don't do that right off the bat they could in a sequel or a trilogy like IM is doing with Mandarin once all the villains are set up in the solo hero films.
I can see RS dying in Cap's first film if they were doing something like that. They could have Steve killing him in the finale during a WW II flashback, if it takes place in the present. RS would definitely make sense showing up in a Cap film before Avengers. The audience will know his history and connection to Steve with that. I've always liked the idea of him using a Roger's clone as a body. That way he's much more physically dangerous.
