Villain from 'Breaking Bad' joins Marvel's universe.
Purportedly, the new Captain America might have discovered his foe. Asterisks Giancarlo Esposito, the baddie of "Breaking Bad," is currently a part of "Captain America 4's" remarkable ensemble, albeit the specifics are still under wraps.
In the brilliant show "Breaking Bad" and its continuation "Better Call Saul," the authoritative Giancarlo Esposito left a palpable fear among spectators. Today, enthusiasts of Marvel films can revel in this too, as relayed by the US website "Variety." Conclusively, the Gustavo Fring performer has been confirmed to be an element of "Captain America: Brave New World's" roster.
Considering his remarkable skill for portraying wicked characters - not only in "Breaking Bad" and the spin-off, but also in the superhero show "The Boys" - it's probable that Esposito will embody the opposing side once more in "Captain America 4." Nevertheless, the exact function the 66-year-old will serve in the Marvel film hasn't been sanctioned yet.
Not long ago, Esposito debunked a rumor - he shall not depict the ethically upstanding superhero Charles "Professor X" Xavier, the head of the "X-Men." Patrick Stewart and James McAvoy had previously traversed this path. The thespian explained at a "Variety" gathering that he's not going to take their places.
Everything Is New in "Brave New World"
Probably, Esposito's character will not be a revamped rendition of a former foe, but rather a figure from the comic pantheon that has not yet surfaced on the big screen.
Additionally, the personification of Steve Rogers, erecting the world-saving icon, will undergo a change too. Chris Evans, a mainstay across all "Avengers" films and solo outings, will no longer shoulder the responsibility. Instead, Sam Wilson (Anthony Mackie) assumes the mantle, to the relief of many fans.
"Captain America: Brave New World" is scheduled for a cinematic release next year with Esposito and 80-year-old Harrison Ford, who will assume the mantle of Thaddeus "Thunderbolt" Ross, formerly portrayed by the late William Hurt.
