Well this is some very good news. Aside from the intricately shared universe that Marvel has created the next best thing about their films are the great talent they get to star in it. And it’s just been announced that Daniel Bruhl will be starring as a villain, perhaps a secondary villain, in the third Captain America film, Captain America: Civil War. He’s been terrific in Good Bye Lenin!, The Bourne Ultimatum, Inglorious Basterds, Rush, The Fifth Estate and A Most Wanted Man. In my opinion this is just as big a get for the film as the reveal that Iron Man and Captain America will be adversaries in the movie. The Civil War is one of the only comics I’ve actually read all the way through. It’s a great story about surveillance and government registration of superheroes.
Captain America: Civil War hits screens on May 6, 2016 to begin Marvel’s Phase Three of their superhero movies. Captain America: The Winter Soldier was the best standalone Marvel film since Iron Man in 2008 and I have high hopes for this concluding film to Captain America’s trilogy. It is also rumored that Bruhl’s character could be a villain in Doctor Strange which will be coming later in 2016. Marvel’s firing on all cylinders right now and they’ve basically planned out the next few years of my blockbuster film going life. Thanks Marvel!
