Daniel Br\u00fchl has suggested that the door is still open for his comeback to the Marvel Cinematic Universe<\/a>, with the villainous Baron Zemo still unaccounted for since 2021\u2019s The Falcon and the Winter Soldier<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The character made his debut five years earlier in Captain America: Civil War, where he orchestrated a sinister plot to tear the Avengers apart from the inside \u2013 and succeeded, killing King T\u2019Chaka (John Kani) of Wakanda in the process.<\/p>\n

In The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, his skills were temporarily enlisted by the titular duo, but he was sent back to prison at the end of the series, where he continued to use his considerable resources to manipulate the world outside.<\/p>\n

Marvel fans have long expected this thread to continue, with the upcoming antihero flick Thunderbolts*<\/a> being the obvious choice due to Zemo\u2019s historic link with that team, but alas, Br\u00fchl is not mentioned<\/a> in the announced cast list.<\/p>

Speaking to RadioTimes.com<\/a> as his biographical drama series Becoming Karl Lagerfeld<\/a> lands on Disney Plus<\/a>, Br\u00fchl didn\u2019t have any concrete information to give \u2013 but reiterated that Zemo is alive and well in the MCU, and so could reappear at any moment.<\/p>\n

\u201cI can only repeat and say, I\u2019m not dead,\u201d he teased.<\/p>\n

Br\u00fchl elaborated that he has been enjoying the variety of his non-Marvel work, naming The Franchise \u2013 a satirical collaboration between Armando Iannucci (The Thick of It), Sam Mendes (Skyfall) and Jon Brown (Succession) \u2013 as a hotly anticipated release.<\/p>\n

He explained: \u201cI\u2019ve been blessed with a lot of different projects that I\u2019ve really enjoyed doing [since 2021], including a very fun show for HBO, which is called The Franchise, which is a satire about superhero movies, and I had so much fun, I cannot tell you.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo that was a very different experience, kind of going back into a similar world, but from a different angle.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Franchise is still awaiting a confirmed release date, but Becoming Karl Lagerfeld is available to stream right now, telling the story of the controversial fashion designer\u2019s rise to prominence in 1970s Paris.<\/p>\n

Becoming Karl Lagerfeld is available to stream on Disney Plus. <\/strong>Sign up to Disney Plus from \u00a34.99 a month<\/a>. <\/strong><\/p>\n
