Deadline is reporting Robert Redford is currently in talks to appear in Marvel’s Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Redford’s character would be a high level S.H.I.E.L.D. honcho. Obviously with Marvel’s tradition of interconnecting films, we could see Redford in further comic book features.
According to Deadline:
“Redford is in talks to play a senior leadership role in S.H.I.E.L.D., the superhero collective run by Samuel L. Jackson’s Nick Fury character. Joe and Anthony Russo are directing the film from a script by Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely, whose Marvel script credits include Captain America: The First Avenger and the upcoming Thor: The Dark World. The sequel will be released by Disney on April 4, 2014.”
