So just where does Martin Freeman fit into the new Captain America movie? He's dropped a few hints...
NewsProduction continues on Marvel's next movie, the jam-packed sounding Captain America: Civil War. Captain America: The Winter Soldier helmers Joe and Anthony Russo are returning to direct, and there's a who's who of modern Marvel Cinematic Universe characters. We've got Chris Evans' Captain America and Robert Downey Jr.'s Tony Stark at the head of the pile, and the film will also introduce Black Panther and the brand new Spider-Man, played by Chadwick Boseman and Tom Holland respectively.
Also in the mix is Martin Freeman, in a thus-far undisclosed role. But he's been chatting about his mysterious character in a new interview with Bad Taste.
"He works for the American government," Freeman revealed.
"He works in conjunction with the superheroes, and certain agencies that help to tame the superheroes’ power, I suppose. So you’re not quite sure which side he’s on. It looks a little bit like he’s playing one game when actually he’s playing another."
He added that "it’s the kind of character I like because it’s ambiguous, and because you don’t know whether he’s good or bad. I like that area that isn’t black or white, I like the grays because I think there’s just more fun to be had in not playing one obvious line."
Which all tells us a little more. The full interview with Bad Taste is here, and Captain America: Civil War arrives in the UK in April 2016...
