One of the biggest no brainers when the casting was announced for Joe Johnston's "Captain America: The First Avenger" was Hugo Weaving as the notoriously evil Red Skull. The only question was whether Mr. Smith from "The Matrix Trilogy" really wanted to play a bad guy again. Much to fans' delight, Weaving came on board and Cap has quite the adversary on his hands.
We'll update this post when Paramount and Marvel provide a clean version for all outlets.

March 4, 2011 at 7:43AM EST Reply to CommentUh - I read EW weekly - so do my sons- maybe they have articles about Glee and Idol but I don't watch the shows so I don't read them.- (both of those seem to be primarily female shows though you have males writing about them).
Your snarkiness sounds a bit catty if you ask me.
