Toby Jones, last seen in Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll and Frost/Nixon, has signed on to play another of Captain America’s villains: mad scientist Arnim Zola.

Zola is an expert biochemist and genetic tinkerer who works for the Nazis creating clones and monstrous creatures. He also perfects a method of transferring brain patterns between bodies, most notably using it to put his own mind into a robot, thereby surviving World War Two and living into modern times.

The crazed genius happens to be one of the biggest thorns in the side of the Avengers, so chances are we could see him in more than one movie.
