10 Characters Who Will Probably Die In 2016's Biggest Movies

8. Captain Rom - The Legend Of Tarzan

In The Legend of Tarzan, Christoph Waltz's character - one Captain Rom - is described as a "corrupt merciless Belgian." Is there any way this guy is going to live to the end? If you said "No freakin' way," you're certainly on the right lines. Tarzan villains always seem to get their comeuppance, and that goes especially so for a super slimy Tarzan villain played by Christoph Waltz, the de facto King of Hollywood Bad Guys. From the trailer for The Legend of Tarzan, then, which is directed by Harry Potter's own David Yates, Waltz seems to have gone down an appropriately hammy path. Which is definitely what you want in a movie like this - a delicious slimeball whose death you yearn to see. Waltz might not be pushing the boat out with such a role, but you can be sure that he'll deliver another memorable antagonist here. R.I.P., Captain Rom - you are doomed.
