WWE Star Seth Rollins Reportedly Cast as New Antagonist in Captain America 4

In an unexpected turn of events, it appears that WWE champion Seth Rollins has been sighted on the set of the upcoming Marvel film, “Captain America: New World Order.” While nothing is set in stone, the conjectures are rife about Rollins trading his wrestling ring for a movie set, potentially embodying a villainous character in the fourth installment of the Captain America series.

A Surprising Addition to the Cast

Seth Rollins, a celebrated personality in the world of WWE with numerous championships under his belt, seems to be following the path of fellow wrestlers like Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, John Cena, and Dave Bautista, who have successfully made their mark in the action movie industry​1​.

The fact that Rollins has been seen filming for the upcoming Captain America movie is generating a wave of speculation among fans. The most prevalent conjecture is that Rollins will be playing a villain, possibly a member of the notorious Serpent Society from the Marvel comics.

The Serpent Society Connection

The Serpent Society is a notorious group of villains that came into existence in response to the success of superhero teams like the Avengers and the Fantastic Four. Their ranks include formidable foes such as Black Mamba, Diamondback, King Cobra, and Viper​2​.

Images and videos from the set suggest that Rollins may be portraying a reimagined version of the character Anaconda, originally depicted as a female super-strong mercenary in the comic universe. This, if confirmed, would add a unique twist to the film and provide an intriguing new role for Rollins​3​.

The Bigger Picture in Captain America: New World Order

Intriguingly, it has been revealed that the character Valentina Allegra de Fontaine, portrayed by Julia Louis-Dreyfus, will be backing the Serpent Society in her quest to recover a powerful metal rivaling Wakanda’s vibranium. This development suggests that Rollins’ character, if indeed a part of the Serpent Society, would likely be serving the interests of the U.S. government rather than operating independently​4​.

It’s also worth noting that this wouldn’t be Val’s first association with a super-powered team. She is set to appear in “Thunderbolts,” a film featuring a group of anti-heroes. There’s a possibility that the events of “Captain America: New World Order” could be closely tied to “Thunderbolts,” given that both movies have Sam Wilson and Val as common characters. The global arms race theme could profoundly impact both films and potentially lead to a thrilling showdown between the two groups and the Serpent Society​5​.

Marvel fans can only wait with bated breath to see how these plot elements intertwine when “Captain America: New World Order” hits the theaters on May 3, 2024.
