Captain America: Civil War - 13 Big Questions From Super Bowl Spot
11. Is Baron Zemo The Mastermind Behind It All?
Another trailer, and still no sign of Daniel Brühl's villainous Baron Zemo. The man NOT in the purple mask is set up as one of the major antagonists of Civil War, but so far we don't really have any idea of what he'll be doing, or even what he will look like. The only real hint we've had so far comes at the airport explosion scene, with Black Widow watching on, as there's a truck that reads Leipzig-Halle, which is a nod to the birthplace of Zemo. Could that be an indication that he is responsible for the chaos we're seeing unfold? The other interesting point to do with Zemo, in particular after this latest trailer, is that he could well be someone controlling things in the background, specifically in relation to Bucky. Look at that shot of The Winter Soldier hooked up in the chamber, which is very dark and ominous; could the Baron be behind it?
NCTJ-qualified journalist. Most definitely not a racing driver. Drink too much tea; eat too much peanut butter; watch too much TV. Sadly only the latter paying off so far.
A mix of wise-old man in a young man's body with a child-like wonder about him and a great otherworldly sensibility.
