10 Upcoming Comic Book Villains Hollywood Will Probably Ruin

10. Baron Helmut Zemo - Captain America: Civil War

The Villain: Baron Zemo is an extremely intelligent antagonist, renowned for his superb battle strategy as well as his combat skills in both hand-to-hand and weapon-based assaults. The character has had two incarnations to date: the original Heinrich Zemo, and his son Helmut, who swore revenge against Cap for killing his father and will be the version appearing in Civil War (played by the talented Daniel Bruhl). Why He'll Be Ruined: It seems incredibly unlikely for one that Civil War is going to give fans Helmut's backstory, so it's probably best to expect a reigned-in version of the character. Also, considering that the movie already has so much drama as well as the Crossbones angle to deal with, it wouldn't be surprising if Zemo ended up being another Baron Wolfgang von Strucker, a minor baddie who gets maybe 10 minutes of screen time and then gets killed or captured without much fanfare. Given how iconic and loved Zemo is, this would be a major blow to many fans, so hopefully he'll live to endure in another movie as a villain in his own right, perhaps 2018's Black Panther.
