14180Still no word on who is going to play Captain America yet, but I don’t think anyone will complain at director Joe Johnston’s choice of arch-enemy: Hugo Weaving.

Hugo Weaving, who is most famous for his roles in The Matrix and Lord of the Rings trilogies, is presently signed on to play the Red Skull, who is no doubt Captain America’s greatest enemy. The Red Skull was apparently Hitler’s right-hand man and I’m not really certain what his backstory is behind the evil red mask. I’m sure that the movie will give a better explanation than that terrible Captain America movie that is on Hulu for free.

I’m sure Weaving is planning on giving his best “Agent Smith” voice for the Big Red Skull, and is probably the actor to call for your “evil voice”. He was the bad guy in Babe after all.

39360We have already discussed about director Joe Johnston’s working on the Captain America movie, but very little has been said about the villain.

It is going to be the Red Skull, who is probably the Captain’s arch-enemy, like Superman’s Lex Luthor. Hopefully, it will be nothing like that awful Captain America movie that you can watch on Hulu now if you wish.

There is no news on who will fill the suit of Captain America, but the story gives a reason why Captain America wears the flag. It’s like some weird plot where he is in a USO show, or something.

Oh, man, this better not be the old Captain America movie all over again. Especially with the Red Skull wearing make-up, so no one would see that he is the Red Skull. Man, that was dumb.
