11 Most Exciting Captain America: Civil War Rumours

3. HYDRA Want To Bring Red Skull Back In The Movie

Red Skull was generally believed to have died in the first Captain America movie back in 2011. Having touched the powerful Tesseract, he seemed to be eviscerated by its energies - but that might not actually have been the case at all. The Tesseract is the Marvel Cinematic Universe version of the Space Gem and, as such, creates portals - just like the one seen in the Avengers movie. The Red Skull might simply have been sent to the other end of the universe and may be stranded on a distant planet as a result of making contact with it (or he could simply be imprisoned within the item itself). It is believed, therefore, that HYDRA may get their hands on it in the Civil War movie and attempt to bring the Red Skull back using it. Having learned more about the capabilities of Infinity Stones through Baron Von Strucker's research with Loki's staff, this makes a lot of sense (though the likelihood of Hugo Weaving reprising the role is probably very slim). After all, it is a Captain America movie.
