'Captain America Civil War' News, Update: Frank Grillo's Crossbones Confirmed to Return

For Captain America movie fans, they might have already known that the next sequel "Captain America: Civil War" will tackle on the conflict between two big Marvel heroes, Iron Man and Captain America, as they both make their stand in the Superhero Registration Act set by the government.

They might also have known that this movie will be the kickstarter for Marvel's Civil War storyline as part of its Cinematic Universe's third phase initiative.

Cast member-wise, it was also reported that Daniel Bruhl will take on a role in the film, although it hasn't been fully revealed yet who will he be playing.

Now, recent rumors pointed out that CA: The Winter Soldier star Frank Grillo is rooted to reprise his part for the forthcoming sequel.

ScreenCrush cited a report from Entertainment Weekly suggesting that the actor will be involved in CA: Civil War.

"Winter Soldier was only a taste of what's to come with the next film, and I couldn't be more humbled and excited. They just kind of called and said, 'What kind of shape are you in? We're going to need a body scan,'" he said.

"They scan your body so that whatever you wear fits you like a glove … We all know what Crossbones represents in his world, so when they called me and said we gotta do the body scan, I was like 'Okay!' the 51-year-old actor went on to say.

Talking further about his beloved character, Crossbones, he notes that, "He's a badass. He is just vicious. I like the idea that it's no holds barred. I love the physicality. We all know what Crossbones represents in his world."

The actor also revealed during the talk that he is quite aware of the development of the Civil War movie.

"I hear Iron Man is in Captain America 3— he's got a big role— and the Black Panther. It sounds like this Civil War is going to be pretty interesting," he dished out.

"Captain America: Civil War" is slated to hit the big screens on May 6, 2016.
