Learn Who Marvel Wants To Play The Red Skull In CAPTAIN AMERICA!!
I am – Hercules!!
Bad news perhaps for Christoph Waltz!
Marvel wants another foreigner, Hugo Weaving, to play Steve Rogers’ Nazi nemesis The Red Skull in its coming “Captain America” feature, according to the Los Angeles Times.
In the funnybooks the original Skull, created by Joe Simon and Jack Kirby in 1941's Captain America Comics #7, was ne'er-do-well orphan Johann Shmidt, personally trained by Adolf Hitler to head Nazi terrorist activities.
In Albert Pyun's straight-to-video 1990 version of "Captain America," the Skull was played by Scott Paulin ("The Accused," "Turner & Hooch").
The title character has not yet been cast in "First Avenger: Captain America," to be directed by Joe Johnston ("Hildago," "The Wolfman") from a screenplay by Christopher Markus & Stephen McFeely (the "Narnia" series). Johnson and Weaving worked together on "Wolfman."
“Matrix” vet Weaving is no stranger to great sci-fi villainy, but I’ll wait to hear his German accent before I fully endorse his casting.

Had me worried there for a minute!
-
Great casting!
-
I thought I read that somewhere...?
-
Christopher Walken! YEAHH!
-
Mutton chops? if not, count me out!
-
Let the guy build up his credentials without dressing up as a silly fucking Nazi supervillain. You fanboys are so selfish- the guy just won an Oscar. Let him do some classy work before he sells out.
-
Love Hugo Weaving. He would be a great Red Skull.
-
He is a charismatic dude.Sides, He did F.F.-he's already part of the comic-world. Plus,unlike Thor-I'm pretty sure they're hiring the lead and filming pretty soon (meaning to time to juice up!), and this dude is jacked up
-
And was fighting the Euro Invasion of America against the whitest whitey of all time, Cap America. He wasn't known as Red Skull among his own people though, just Skull. Stupid racist white people.

"I'd like to share a revelation that I've had during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species and I realized that you're not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment but you humans do not. You move to an area and you multiply and multiply until every natural resource is consumed and the only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet. You're a plague and we are the cure. "
EIther the logical choice or the god please would you "shutdafuckup" one. -
Weaving has the talent (and the VOICE!) to knock this one out of the park. I hope it happens. And I hope they get someone good for Cap, because it would be DAMN easy for Weaving to overpower a lesser talent on the big screen.
-
On every movie he has done after the Matrix.
-
but still Weaving is a good choice
-
Everytime they need a bad guy to get a shit beat out of him for a movies that everyone no's a heros will never die they get Agent Smiths and then when they need someone to dress up in a poop hanging from my ass hairs CGI suit they get Gollums. FUUUUCK!!!

...someone like Michael Fassbender would be perfect. Speaks the language, and has the physicality to match up against the good Captain.
-
"The hobbit has shown great resilencey to the rings power"
-
Sounds like about the right level...
-
because gary oldman is great.
-
Red Skull, welcome to Earff!
-
Thor movie. Captain America movie. Green Lantern movie. Surely judgement is on the march.

I always wanted Henry Silva as Red Skull
by beyondthunderdome2girls1cupbillcosby
-
Maria Schriver. Shave her bald, paint her face red: It's a Bingo! One Red Skull - think of the money they would save on make-up.
-
now hopefully he can get a better role..
-
Would be a good choice. he has the accent and has worked in genre movies. Hellboy 2, King Kong.
-
Christ, if there even is one to speak of...
-

Is it too soon to suggest Corey Haim?
by isleptwithkathybatesandallthatigotwasthi
Give him a few months and he won't need the make-up.I'm going to burn in Hell for that.
-
The Red Skull would have been the OTHER guy from Nip/Tuck. You know, The Stepfather.
-
FOX is thinking of rereleasing Avatar this Summer with additional footage?
Ridiculous. -
No way should Christolph Watlz play ANOTHER Nazi, and ruin the rest of his career!
-
No way should Christolph Watlz play ANOTHER Nazi, and ruin the rest of his career!
-
Damn that's some funny shit! But seriously, Weaving=Genius.
-
He's a good actor and should be able to do a German accent. It's not casting perfection like Mckellen as Magneto, but it beats the Eurotrash Dr. Doom from the FF movies, that's for sure.
-
Hey, as long as the Red Skull is German instead of Italian again, I'm down with it.
-
If they cast Chris Evans, i'm out.
-
they're missing an opportunity to use the ultimate american villain..9/11.(but who should they cast as 9/11?... my vote is for Christolph Watlz.)
-
though the person who said jason isaacs? thats genius!
-
Please Nolan make that so. He would be brilliant.
-
It is a voice performance. Weaving has a great voice for a villain.
-
YES!!!
-
two characters frozen from WWII to the modern day to resume their battle? sounds a little austin powers. Have him fight zemo or some other sick nazi scientists in one, and save red skull as a neo-nazi experiment gone wrong! he could even fight the avengers!
-
nice idea of Mark Valley as Cap. Human Target has grown on me something fierce (like syphillis, but without all the painful, puss-covered side-effects). Seriously, though, love Human Target and Valley is fun to watch.
-
Waltz said Morgan Freeman was one of his favorite actors on Leno (not that I approve of Leno) the chemistry would be jaw dropping.
-
seriously, is this the only site left without an edit button?
-
I don't think he should play a villian for his next role much less a nazi, lest he want to suffer the post oscar curse.
-
Surfin Steve Rogers!!!
-
He was a bitter bellboy in a hotel where Hitler was staying. Hitler took him and turned him into his main henchman. That's what makes the Skull so scary in that he represents the disenfranchised who are seduced by systems like Nazism. Under the mask, the Skull should be totally nondescript.
-
and he can still act in V for Vendetta. On that alone, regardess of accent, he has my vote. If he can hide his Aussie accent, which he does with flying colors, he can surely do a German accent.
-
So, far from being iconic, it will suck harder than a 5th "real estate scam" by some bald headed twat of an excuse for a super villain.
-
it was supposed to just be a training mission.i climbed into the cockpit of my F-15E strike eagle. My co-pilot, 'Wolverine' (aptly named because of his sideburns, and 'less-than-pleasant' disposition.) was annoyed at having to wake up so early for another quick flight. "Bullshit run, huh?" he spitted out."Maybe next time the big brass can have us pick them up some lunch while we're out..."We were required to fly over the ocean while testing a new fuel additive. It was supposed to provide better performance out of the jet, but I wasnt buying it.The take-off was routine, and i had almost been daydreaming when i heard screaming being radioed in from the tower. The lack of protocol surprised me for a second, until 'Wolverine' started frantically grabbing my shoulder.somehow it had gone unnoticed.somehow it had found me.somehow it was right behind me.we talked about it like ghost stories during boot camp. Most of us believed in it, but never thought it would actually come for us. On this day, i was wrong. i would soon be one of it's victims. 9/11 had finally caught me.
-
Lex was supposed to represent a brain to match Supermans brawn.
But when hack writers can't write a brainy character, they instead have something like "Lex invents a super suit, so it can be brawn versus brawn. And superman wins."
And that's stupid.
Cap is also physically perfect. It's pointless to match him brawn versus brawn against the Red Skull. It was always supposed to be about how the Skull has different goals, aims and means than Cap. Morals versus Amorals. And yet the good guys don't finish last.
Intelligence has to form a part of that. And I don't think anyone at Hollywood has 2 braincells to rub together. Certainly not enough to make a convincing Red Skull plot. -
but would defer to Waltz since he's an ACTUAL FUCKING GERMAN. Would be nice for H-Wood to cast characters based on their country of origin. Need a Russian character? Go hire a Russian, not Ben Affleck!
-
My name is LaserPants and I approve of this casting.
-
GUARANTEED to elevate whatever doodoo he's involved with!He hasn't let us down yet.
-
... and NOT an Italian one. If can even be a slight German accent. Would have preferred Waltz but Weaving's good.
-
You fucking idiot, it's called acting! You want to ruin Waltz's career by him playing a Nazi fuck every movie he's in??? Let's just put the Waltz as the a Nazi for every fucking time there's a Nazi Character! WTF????
-
It can sound like that old crotchety guy's living corpse from Creepshow w/ a German accent for all I care.
-
While Weaving is a great actor who is fun to watch, if I recall correctly it was James Purefoy behind the mask for most of the film. Purefoy was originally cast as V and Weaving was brought in as a late replacement when (don't remember why) Purefoy left, and Weaving just redubbed a lot of the scenes Purefoy had already filmed. There are a few scenes with Weaving in the suit, but from what I can remember, mostly it's Purefoy.
-
My pick would be Andy Serkis. He's pretty big (I think), he's got experience of acting with his body and behind a mask, doing weird voices and playing intense, deranged characters ... Not that Weaving hasn't, of course.
-
I am not a fucking idiot. I said if it's between Weaving and Waltz, I would defer to the fucking German. You sound like you want to blow Waltz!
-
This is actually the first time news has come out on who they want for the Red Skull. So how the fuck did you come up with Waltz as the choice?
-
(but you didn't hear it from me.)
-
What a curious way to start an article? Any paticular reason for that?
A news item that has been on other sites for nearly 24 hours! -
Weaving just knows his craft...
Plus, between Priscilla Queen of the Desert, The Matrix, and Lord of the Rings, he's had his face associated with a wide range of memorable/colorful characters, so he can do fun shit like this without any fears of typecasting--sorta like Roth in The Incredible Hulk. -
Either way, this should be pretty watchable.
-
He's a villain who expresses the brutality of the Nazi ideology. He's not a smug or moustache-twirling villain. He doesn't have a moustache - or skin, or even features. I wouldn't want to give the character any redeeming features or likeable qualities. There might be some humor in just how hate-filled and ruthless he is, but it'd be of the "Oh my God" variety. They should play him as stripped back and total as the blood red skull. Casting a big name like Weaving could get in the way of that. Would he really want to play a pure evil character, an unreconstructed Nazi fanatic? Remember, this is a villain who, even years after the death of Hitler and the collapse of Nazi Germany, still holds to his ideology and wants to create a Thousand Year Reich.
-
Agent Smith stood out from all the other agents and that wonderfull voice of his worked so well that it could work aganst his role of the red scull.
-
Will Red Skull be given the Green Goblin mask treatment or will they give him a "human face" mask that would cover his "deformity" during most of the movie? Certainly we can't expect him to actually look like The Red Scull can we?
-
"Stupid racist white people."......YOU are the racist!!!
-
Red Skull I liked. Matt Salinger (son of JD, factoid fans) looked like Mel Gibson crossed with Sam Jones. Or Garth Marenghi in rubber.
-
Perfect, keep the good news rolling bitches!
-
Sounds good to me.

Why is it always Hugo Weaving? When is it ever Hugo Weaving?
by chewtoy
He played a villain in the "Matrix" movies.... that's pretty much it. Elrond isn't a villain, neither was V. I guess somewhere under the sound effects he's Megatron, but c'mon... that's not even a role. He probably records his lines from his car phone while driving down the freeway. The fact that V was so pleasantly different from his Matrix agent makes me interested to see what he might come up with here.
-
Reverse - Reverse - Racism? Do I really need to pull out the Triple Reverse Racism Card and throw it back at you? It's all about you, isn't it?
-
I knew Weaving was a replacement, but I always thought it was like Lord of the Rings where Stuart Townsend played Aragorn for about two days, then was let go, and replaced by a better actor.
-
Search your feelings...you know it to be true.
-
Mar 12, 2010 11:21:47 AM CST
If Waltz's agent even brings him another Nazi role, he should be
by chewtoy
Seriously, Waltz was never going to even consider the role. It was never going to be a possibility.
-
Terrible freaking casting. PJ made a great decision making the switch then.
-
Priscilla Queen of the Desert. I'd heard of it, but never seen it. So watching General Zod, Agent Smith, and Lt. Exley gay it up like that was surreal. As far at the latter two go I can't believe it's the same actors.
-
You're thinking Robert Townsend.
-
eh, why not? lol!

Red Skull with a badass cobra tattoo, and knife skills
by grammaton cleric binks
Hell yeah.
-
awesome!
-
I understand shooting on location in Prague for the WWII scenes, but come on, not a single set is being built in AMERICA for a Captain AMERICA film.
-
Waltz is annoying but some of that is probably Tarantino's fault.
-
don't know if he could pull off the accent, but at least we know he can act & it could break the Locke typecast
-
Weaving was also a villain as the voice of Megatron in Transformers. He only had about 3 lines, but it was him (maybe he talked more in Transformers 2 - I didn't bother to watch it).
-
I hate to say it, but I am getting really tired of Hugo Weaving. He is pretty much a hack now. Sacriledge, I know...I really hate the way Hugo Weaving phones in his acting and voiceover duties.Christoph Waltz is perfect, bottomline.
-
make it so.
-
Christoph Waltz needs to play something totally different from Inglorious Basterds next, and that's not another Nazi. He's been introduced to Hollywood, now he needs to show his range, not allow himself to be typecast in Nazi/villain roles right off the bat.
-
hell, Eric Bana was a Star Trek villain
-
somewhere in the movie,perform this sketch he did years ago in Austria:
http://tinyurl.com/yar3u75 -
I know he's already playing Nick Fury but why not CA aswell? Seems a pretty good fit judging from this video...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZafzIDDhOU -
some unknown stage actor that looks like he would enjoy murdering many jews - hire that guy. unknowns are always the better choice. also waltz, he may have been a decent choice before being in that crapfest by tarantino but that ship has sailed, no way he'd do another Nazi after winning an oscar... it will never happen, so you kids out there with zero casting imagination, just let it go already.
-
Hugo Weaving would make a waaaaay better Sinesro in Green Lantern than a Red Skull.
-
Yeah, that pretty much confirms that I'll wait for the Blu-Ray to rent.
-
And he would be smart to turn them down.
-
I'm sure Mr. weaving will be on pins and needles waiting to see if Herc endorses his casting. God, how does he sleep at night!
-
Mike Vogel will be Captain America. He killed the audition and screen tests.
-
Weaving singuarly made The Matrix - putting him in 'Cap' should be just as good! V'Shael, I agree with your conclusions about the character - well said! Lookin' forward to this - not sure how I would feel about Chris Evans for Cap - not good in FF!
-
He was the best part of Fantastic Four
-
Then maybe Ryan Gosling will take the part. For the record the only things I liked about the Rocketeer was Jennifer Connelly's boobs and the jet pack stuff. Johnson's a hack. The only plus side is that at least with him directing I know they'll probably stay faithful to the costume, wings on the head and all. But seriously, WHY DON'T THEY JUST GET PATRICK WILSON. So what if he was already in Watchmen. If Joe Johnson can make a Captain America movie half as entertaining as Watchmen's opening credits I'd be stunned.

Everyone Wants Waltz Because He's The Only German Actor They Kno
by laserpants
and he happened to play a Nazi. He was great, btw, in that otherwise WAY overrated movie, but I don't think he's right for Red Skull either. I'd go with Weaving. He's got a good forehead and can act good and stuff.
-
Is too good for this soon to be piece of shit movie.
There's a thing called Typecasting that actors try to avoid.
Ever hear of it? -
Kenneth Branagh.
-
He even won an academy award for it!
-
He's a good pick. I look forward to watching him beat up Aaron Eckhart.
-
Everett McGill
Ain't seen that boy for awhile -
...I am really hoping that this new Red Skull looks better than the one in the clip....Although I'm not sure if having his head entirely CGI would be frowned upon by you guys or not...
-
It is physically impossible to hear Hugo Weaving speak without expecting him to end every sentence with "Mr. Anderson".
-
Your point?
-
I'm surprised no one's said Nathan Fillion and Jon Hamm for Red Skull. I'd trust hollywood over you scrubs any day.
-
for some reason. Not sure why anyone would want to be involved in that project. Christoph Waltz gotta eat I guess.
-
let a former Soprano play 'im then. fugeddaboutit
-
And I HATE the fucking Submariner.
-
It's Johnston, not Johnson.
-
in an arthouse movie,about a Circus owner or something.It has not been confirmed yet,but come on now,Holywood is all about the Anglo-Saxons,so do you think that a non-anglosaxon european,especially an Austrian has not been typecasted already?
When you see Waltz as a protagonist in a romantic movie ,playing the older cool American guy to whom a young white british girl falls in love,wake me up. -
waltz won't play a nazi anytime soon, it's already been confirmed by common_fucking_sense.com.
-
Also, Hugo Weaving is a far better choice for the Red Skull than Christoph Waltz. Waltz was great in Inglorious Basterds, but the character he played was quriky and eccentric. The Red Skull is not quirky and eccentric. He is your standard menacing evil supervillain. Weaving is an excellent choice. Just because Waltz recently played a Nazi and has a German accent does not mean he is a good choice to play the Red Skull.
-

The Red Skull is a 'standard menacing supervillian'?
by chuck_chuckwalla
Hardly, he has more baggage than your standard supervillian. Doctor Octopus, Stiltman, Toyman, Annihilus and Solomon Grundy are all pretty standard supervillians but the Red Skull is a FUCKING NAZI! A living, breathing representation of the evil that is fascism. And I would hope that the actor that plays him gives us more than what we expect to see. I want to see Red Skull done as good as Ledger did the Joker. The bar has been raised, let's not lower it.
-
nice one.....
-
Yes, Im sure Waltz would be great... but as many have said before me, he won't take another Nazi role right away. Its the same part. I did like the idea of Michael Fassbender... but Hugo Weaving? great choice... Good thing about him is that he isnt one of those stars who wants face time, he'll be happy playing behind a mask or makeup the whole movie. Get over it nerds, this is good
-
Not all of Capt. America is being shot overseas.
They are shooting at:
Raleigh Manhattan Beach Studios -
chris evans would be okay i guess
-
*This post dedicated to Dreadlock Holmes
-
is still brillant casting. He has presence and that's a big plus. Nevertheless, let me mourn just one thing: Captain America should put unknowns into its star roles so as to take the focus off the stars and put more focus on the characters.
-
Meant to be. All he needs are ankle wings. And some kind of wig.
-
He has committed enough attrocities after all, so why not?
-
..that curly Blonde guy from Spartacus.
-
He was the only good thing in the Matrix (except for Laurence Fishbourne getting his head bounced off a toilet). That clip looks more like Roger Corman made it ( I know he didn't but yeesh...)
-
..was for that scene above.And it shows!
-
I subscribe to every DC comic, for better or worse, but i don't find one damn interesting character i'd want to read every month. Iron Man was a great movie, but 1st) i'm not sure i'll appreciate a second Iron Man, because the origin was what I loved, and had great rewatchabilty (unlike the Xmen movies which are impossible to enjoy again) but i started to yawn once he settled into being iron man and the action scenes were mediocre but had no heart.
-
Will all the whiners and the wannabe comedians
trying out their material on this awesome casting, kindly stfu.
Sounds like a conference of Stewie Griffin wannabes...
This is UBER casting.
Now:
Cast Chris Evans. CLEARLY the best of the short list.
(I was leaning towards that Krasinsky guy, but since he's out...)
Other casting wish lists:
Harvey Keitel as Doc Erskine.
http://tinyurl.com/ylea4na
Keitel would ensure a solid actor on a Hopkins level w Thor.
Probably not that expensive either, considering the cheapskate tactics at Marvel with Rourke.
(Hey, he looks the part too)
and:
Jason Statham in a quick cameo as Union Jack:
http://tinyurl.com/yg6lp59
Casting him would draw in the action crowd
and since he wants to play a superhero and has showed interest
in being in the DAREDEVIL reboot...
I say thee NAY.
Make Statham cameo as Union Jack, then give him a couple of
kickass, R-rated( in good old europe of course)spin off movies where he fights vampires during world war 1.
Produced by Luc Besson.
(Please, dear god yes)
They could be like the Blade movies!
If anyone is unfamiliar with this character,
check him out on Vikipedia.
Unreal.
Make it happen Marvel. -
I knew they'd do this shit and cast an Englishman for a German. Fuck, nearly ANYONE German works. Richard Sammel., Til Schweiger, Matthias Schweighoefer, Franka fuckin Potente etc. MARVEL, QUIT RAPING MY CHILDHOOD!!! GERMAN BONESTRUCTURE IS REQUIRED FOR THIS ROLE!
-
(Awesome actor btw)
Will play the Baddie in The upcoming Green hornet flick.
Anyone whining about him not being typecast here, can enjoy him in that movie. -
Christoph Waltz would've been so much better. MARVEL's casting has been sucking again as of late.
-
Weaving is Australian. As Australian as Paul Hogan getting buggered by a kangaroo on the Sydney Harbour Bridge while having a bbq.
-
Ryan McPartlin for Captain America. If you watch Chuck, you know I'm right.
-
is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to old too play cap
And looks it
Dewd is old and beat looking -
I didn't know Namor was ghey
/swish
wouldn't work
Namor is pretty taciturn and Zane can never shut up -
Namor enters the room with a swish
-
Without having seen Chuck, i'd agree on your Ryan McPartlin pick.
However, he's not on "the incredible shrinking list."
He was. Not anymore though.
Right now it's down to: The Human Torch, Flynn Jr, and 2 other guys i have no clue about.
Evans seems best. -
He already plays a character nicknamed Captain Awesome, so he wouldn't even have to change his stationery. For those of you who have never seen Chuck, I give you Exhibit A: http://tinyurl.com/mzgcs7
-
... when they failed to go with Ryan McPartlin as Cap.
-
He was great in Inglourous Basterds. Makes more sense than casting him as Red Skull. If not Cap, I want to see him cast as some other super-hero soon. He might even be an interesting candidate to play Superman.
-
McPartlin. But Evans is also a pretty acceptable choice. This isn't the type of role that facilitates some kind of left field Tim Burton style casting. They need someone with the classic square-jawed hero look and Evans is the only one out of the current list that's got it.
-
was great in Sunshine, and the best part of FF4. He's just too boyish for Cap. I still like Office Jim as Cap if they work him out. He was great as the golden-boy quarterback in Leatherheads. Vogel just comes across as an LA surfer. I personally wouldn't mind an older Cap (Valley, Eckhardt, Fillion). T'would bring some gravitas to the screen, to play off Downey. But please, continue with the 90210 casting choices please.
-
Would be a KKBB reunion. MI3 girl as, Cap's girl...?
-

Joe Johnston is a hack and will ruin this movie.
by helveticaconspiracy
I wish it weren't so, but just look at his track record. He ruined 'Wolfman', even with the solid base laid down by Romanek and an excellent cast, Joe Johnston just failed. I really want to like this movie, but in Johnston's hands I can't help but feel pessimistic.
-
Mar 13, 2010 11:18:56 AM CST
Hugo weaving should play Namor instead.
by johndillingers20inchseveredcock
Just look at him.
-
dwayne johnson. n hes bulkin up insane 4 it.
-
is too puny to play cap
-
CAPS like 6"2
-
TPTB better reconsider McPartlin for the role. Screw Office Jim and the rest of the Teen Beat candidates they had. TPTB need to worry about getting the RIGHT PERSON FOR THE ROLE instead of going cheap with the lowball pay and the nine picture deal (you guys are owned by Disney now).Thor isn't the character that they need to get right in order for the Avengers movie to work, it's Captain America. This movie is starting to have a Superman Returns vibe to it (and yes, the wooden Routh was A HORRIBLE CHOICE FOR SUPERMAN).Chris Hemsworth was first passed on Thor until he got called back and changed their minds. They need to reconsider Ryan McPartlin. I don't see Marvel worrying about RDJ being too old to play Tony Stark/Iron Man.
-
While the Rock could physically pull it off, Billy Zane could do the nuance thing that a royal avenging son needs to be
-
but he looks more like Cap than Kakinskywhatsisname. Still wish they would go for Alexander Skaarsgard
-
having Evans play multiple heroes kills any remote chance of crossover appearances. Dont do some stupid shit like that
-
Somewhere around 6 Feet.
Captain America is taller than Iron Man. Downey Jr is 5' 8.
(According to the fountain of truth that is IMDB)
And of course, there is always MovieMagicTM. -
Look, out of the minor shortlist McPartlin's clearly the best
choice. Krasinski's essentially a sitcom actor while Evans, as has been said further up, is already in the Marvel universe filmwise. Also they're both too scrawny. In all seriousness however, the stars in this case are less important than the director, and Joe Johnston is not the man.
-
Did Rocketeer. Nuff said.
-
Puny Chris Evans
-
The Incredible Hulk movie successfully tied Cap's story with Hulks. I'm hoping that Ed Norton and whoever else is involved can square out whatever they need to in order to bring to film an epic Marvel story played out through these series of movies. Bring Hulk back soon! If not in Cap. A then in the Avengers please!
-
Dwayne is bulkin up for his role as Black Adam in the Shazam! movie. Fact.
-

I still think Nathan Fillion would be a good Captain America
by goatherdingclownhunter
Firefly haters can eat a steaming, creamy deuce.
-
I didn't mean to imply that the Red Skull wasn't a great or exceptional character. I was trying to indicate that he wasn't quirky and humorous like Waltz's Nazi character in Inglorious Basterds. What I was trying to indicate is that he is not an unconventional or odd villain.
