9. Baron Zemo
Who's Playing Him? Daniel Brühl. Who's Daniel Brühl? A German actor who's had a successful career in his own country, but most recognizable to the mainstream thanks to appearances in films such as The Bourne Ultimatum, Inglourious Basterds, A Most Wanted Man, and alongside Chris Hemsworth in Ron Howard's Rush back in 2013. What's He Appearing In? Captain America: Civil War. Why You Should Be Excited: By all accounts, Zemo - long requested to make the leap from the comics to the big screen by fans - is going to be the ultimate villain of Civil War, likely pulling the strings that force the conflict to bubble over until everyone has to put aside their differences to beat him. With Red Skull still seemingly out of the picture for the foreseeable future and Baron von Strucker being wasted in Age of Ultron, the longtime Cap villain will hopefully make it out the other end of Civil War alive to give the film side of the MCU another much-needed recurring villain beyond Loki and Thanos.
