'Captain America: The Winter Soldier' Casting Update

Crossbones? Sweet.

Soooo pumped.

Dunno who Crossbones is (I don't follow Captain America comic), however I cannot wait to see the movie! :)

Oh man this sounds brilliant!

Oh interesting this is where there introducing the Falcon, he's going to be in the new Avengers cartoon because of this. Still don't get why there not going with Black Panther instead.

Loved Crossbones in both Cap and Thunderbolts. Here's hoping this guy delivers.

I'm not thrilled about Hollywood using the Winter Soldier arc, I never wanted Bucky to come back among other reasons, but I'll see what happens when it happens. Maybe the script will fix some of the problems I have.

Falcon will be in it? YAHOO!

Sounds like a major spy type thriller. Glad Scarlett Johansson, Sam Jackson, and Aunt Robin signed back on to play their characters in the movie.

Marvel rocks the movie department. I'm a huge DC fan but they just can't compete. Marvel brings out, at most, three films every year, DC brings out one. And it's not even that, it's always Batman or Superman. They have some really amazing characters and do they ever get the spotlight? Sadly no. Only in the cartoons.

Although, they did have Green Lantern and Jonah Hex recently. But lets be honest, they could have been way better. They had the potential.

Crossbones is awesome in the comics. I'm glad he's going to be in the film.

I pray to god Marvel uses Falcon's look from the Ultimate universe. I've always found his regular costume to be super corny.

lovin this update, its such a tease to how amazing this films gonna be, surprised about the falcon being in it, wasn't expecting him :D

Agreed!

This sounds awesome, especially since I didn't really find the first Captain America very impressive at all.

I know. :)

maybe bucky will replace rodgers as cap for captain america 3. maybe cap dies in avengers 2. it doesnt seem like chris evans likes the character

Im not a reader of Captain America but i have loved his character in the movies so far, i know about Winter Solider/Bucky but have no idea beyond Red Skull who any of Cap's enemies are. Can anyone recommend a few trades i can use to catch up a bit? I really dont want to be sitting on Wiki, id rather experiance the events as intended.

Black Panther has NONE business being in this movie.. its the same as putting Daredevil instead of Falcon as Captain America's sidekick just for the sake of introducing him in the movie universe

@kagato: captain america civil war tie in, the death of captain america vol 1 2 and 3, catain america the man with no face, the trial of captain america. most of them are with bucky as cap but it helps show how important cap is in the marvel universe.

Too many characters. I mean they are almost turning this into a Team movie, Bucky, Cap, Window, Fury & Falcon Vs. Crossbones. Hopefully the others are only in cameo roles and you dont' see them throughout the movie.

I'm supahdupah excited! :D

thats pretty cool that Crossbones is in it, he's one of my fave Cap villains. and im totally down for the falcon, hoping they go the Ultimates route, because i really dont want to see a grown man in red and white spandex talking to birds

OK. Who has had the same idea as me that they are going to have Crossbones "kill" Captain America and Bucky becomes

A tribute to him in the 3RD film? Like the comics.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSS

Anthony Mackie as Falcon!!!!!!!

@wmwadeii: During Brubaker's run it was almost a team book. Sharon Hill, Bucky, Falcon, Black Widow, Nick Fury all made almost continuous appearances. Cap wasn't even in the book for the better part of two years!

Captain America 3:

Crossbones returns.

First appearance of Diamondback.

The Earth and Heavens tremble beneath a million fanboys saying NO!

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet. Can't wait until we get the Bucky/Widow/Hawkeye love triangle and the slashers all pair up Bucky/Hawkeye.

Crossbones is going to be great!!! Maybe they can lead up to a Thunderbolts movie too!!! I mean... they are doing Galactic Guardians after all... Why not T-Bolts?!?

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet. Can't wait until we get the Bucky/Widow/Hawkeye love triangle and the slashers all pair up Bucky/Hawkeye.

damn ! 45 years old and 30 years of dreaming for superhero movies... it is a great life ..lol..now if Marvel could only fix the economy

Cant wait. They are really building up an entire movie universe the likes of which I never imagined. Even if some of the actors from phase one start to leave, it wont matter. They have started something bigger, so when new actors take up the part of say Iron Man, Cap or Thor it will just be like when a new artist or writer takes over a character in the comics. Marvel thought big with the whole Avengers thing, and it worked big.

Wouldn't it be nice if you had pictures of the actors you named?

Just saying.

Why Must I wait another year and a half for this? WHY!? ;_;

@wmwadeii: Bucky is a bad guy

Crossbones? Sweet.

@Kriminal - Thanks for the heads up, i think i actually have the cival war one through a marvel sub, ill dig it out and pick up the trades from my local comic book store.

(Waiting for Batman devotees to claim that Crossbones is a Bane knock-off, even though Crossbones came before Bane)

i think most of yall are forgetting that Winter Soldier in the beggining was a brainwashed villain not hero

Dang. Great characters slated for this, a total surprise. Actors and actresses, don't care too much but the characters...yes, I am impressed.

@Green ankh: Here,Here...(raises glass)!

I wonder who the main villain is going to be. Winter Soldier is brainwashed and controlled by Lukin/Red Skull in the book and Crossbones is one of tge Skulls henchmen. Hugo Weaving said that he would prefer to not reprise his role as the Red Skull. I'm hoping that they bring in Zemo to be the main bad guy. Have an awesome fight scene between Cap and Zemo as well as a great one between A freshly released from brainwashing Bucky versus Crossbones.

YAY! That's amazing!

AWESOME!!! CAN'T WAIT!!! !! ^__^

Yeah, I didn't care for the Captain America or Thor movies, but I'm very excited about the direction that both movie's sequels seem to be taking.

@Jonny_Anonymous that makes sense I was having a moment. Forgot when he came back he was still Winter Soldier.

I was referring to the overall avengers franchise. But Black Panther would make a lot more sense then Daredevil as a long time Avenger.

Well this males since since in the first waves of Captain America figures they included both Winter Soldier and Crossbones.

Yeah well those imaginary devotees never showed up,mostly cause a good deal of these guys here dont even know who he is.

I hope Red Skull shows up or maybe Zemo,Crossbones is cool for combat scenes but he has next to no personality or depth in him.

Oh I'm DEFINITELY psyched for this now that we are going to see Crossbones! And soooo great we get to see Agent Robin Scherbatsky reprise her role as Hill once again!
