Red Skull WILL Be The Villain For The First Avenger: Captain America

The First Avenger director Joe Johnston has confirmed that Captain America will go up against Red Skull in the upcoming Marvel movie.

“Virtually the entire story except the bookends are in World War II because we all recognize we have one chance to tell the origin story of how he became Captain America, you can’t tell a modern story and then go back and tell the origin story. If you’re going to do it, let’s do it. Let’s do it first. Everyone wanted to tell an origin story. There was a version where it was a modern story and it didn’t work.”

Johnston also added that he hopes to have cast the role of Captain America by the end of this month.

Yay!
