If a recent casting call is anything to go by, supervillain Baron Zemo will be appearing in Captain America: Civil War , and what's more, he'll be played by Inglorious Basterds' Daniel Brühl.

The revelation comes via a Disney casting sheet found on moviecastingcall.org , which lists Brühl among the rest of the cast.For those unfamiliar with Baron Zemo, he was first introduced in Marvel comics as Heinrich Zemo, a supervillan who took up the 'Baron Zemo' legacy title in 1964. Heinrich was an evil Nazi scientist who caused great trouble for Cap during the WW2 era; after his death, his son son Helmut became the new Baron Zemo, and eventually grew into one of Cap's most feared villains in the modern day. It's unclear which Zemo Brühl will be playing (if this casting call is to be believed, of course), but an argument can be made for both characters - whether it's Heinrich in flashbacks or Helmut in the present.Brühl is best known for his role as Frederick Zoller in Quentin Tarantino's 2009 Inglorious Basterds, and more recently as Niki Lauda in the 2013 car flick Rush.Captain America: Civil War hits theatres May 16, 2016.
