Daniel Brühl finding depth in something as silly as "fish people" has a subtle parallel in the MCU.. Daniel Brühl played Helmut Zemo in two MCU projects: Captain America: Civil War And The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. Brühl's version of the character is a deceptively tragic figure, driven by a grief-filled rage to destroy the Avengers system, which he believes is inherently broken. Brühl's performance brought real complexity to a compelling villain. Franchise might make a joke by having his character get a lesson about fracking in his superhero movie with a jackhammer.
