Frank Grillo is Crossbones in "Captain America" Sequel

[maskedmanissue1]

Yeah.Good point about Magneto in the x-men movies.
Even so i would prefer that the next Captain America movie would have another villain besides Red Skull,especially now that not even Hugo Weaving does not want to repeat that role.
Besides Red Skull there are tons of options to use as villains in the movies,as Baron Zemo,Arnin Zola,Serpent Society,Hydra,Batroc...
If the sequel gets to have the same villain it does not will have that new tone as it would have if the sequel have a new villain.

I think they will be most definitely using Zola, no way you bring Toby Jones in for just a cameo on the first movie. He's just too perfect. And a perfect candidate to have had involvement in the creation of the Winter Soldier.

I guess they'll do some camera trick like they did with Hardy for Bane, making him look bigger. I would see Grillo more as Wolverine than the huge Crossbones.

Jones' role in the first movie was far from a cameo. It was a pretty sizable supporting role.

I liked the first Cap movie but it kind of felt like the movie was rushing to get to the end.

Which is understandable since it had to lead up to the Avengers movie.

It's just hard for me to swallow that this Cap is relatively less experienced than the comic book one.

Cool. If Frank can make me hate Crossbones as much as Brubaker did, great.

Yes! Make Crossbones completely badass. Give him mucho swagger.

Agreed. LOVED him in Thunderbolts; and I really enjoy his odd standards of "honour."

Agreed. I don't know Frank Grillo (the only thing I've seen with him in is Minority Report (2002); where he was merely one of many pre-crime cop, so I wouldn't remember him); but I'm THRILLED they are using Crossbones!

My first exposure to him was in Brubakers first Cap run and i didn't know he had standards except for when it comes to Sin.

Brubaker did a good job adding depth to his villains (LOVED his Zemo in No Escape). Remember, he wouldn't fight Cap when he could tell he was drugged up, and he got angry that Cap accussed him of desecrating a grave. Same in Thunderbolts, he loves killing, but actually shows a surprising amount of loyalty to the team.
