Toby Jones will play evil scientist Arnim Zola in the Captain America movie.

The Infamous star is to provide opposition for Chris Evans's titular superhero alongside Hugo Weaving's classic Marvel supervillain the Red Skull, says The Hollywood Reporter.

In the original comics, Zola is a biochemist who created clones for Adolf Hitler and survived World War II by imprinting his own brain pattern into a robot. The character frequently faced off against The Avengers in the Marvel universe.

Sebastian Stan and Hayley Atwell are also confirmed for Captain America, which will shoot in the UK this summer under the direction of Joe Johnston (The Wolfman).
