It seems like the writers of the next Captain America movie are looking for a famous Marvel villain for the hero to take on, but what could that mean for S.H.I.E.L.D. moving forward?

In a recent interview with SFX, Captain America 3 writers Stephen McFeely and Christopher Markus teased the idea of the villain Modok showing up during the movie and causing problems for Cap at the rebuilding of S.H.I.E.L.D.

In the comics, average technician George Tarleton found his fate changed thanks to a random selection by his boss, the Scientist Supreme of A.I.M., who needed a unique, bio-engineered "living computer" in order to plumb the mysteries of the Cosmic Cube.

Tarleton was subjected to hideous experiments, mutating his body into a massive-headed being possessing superhuman intelligence and extraordinary psionic powers. Given the code-name MODOC ("Mobile Organism Designed Only for Computing"), Tarleton instead turned on his superiors, slaying them all and declaring himself Scientist Supreme. Moreover, he changed his name to MODOK, with the "K" standing now for "Killing."

Knowing only the barest of information, S.H.I.E.L.D. sent its Agent 13 to gather intelligence about A.I.M. and Modok, but she was captured and Captain America was then sent to the rescue. The two heroes were captured, but ultimately discovered Modok when he revealed himself and tried to kill them personally.

During the resultant clash, other A.I.M. agents, those opposed to Modok's leadership, turned on him and allowed Captain America and Agent 13 to escape. The submarine base destroyed, Modok was believed dead, although he used his psionic abilities to save himself and soon reasserted his leadership over A.I.M.

This is an interesting origin as Agent 13 (Emily VanCamp) was introduced in Winter Solider and could have an expanded role in the third movie. It also would allow Modok to be introduced and then be around for future Marvel movies.

Captain America 3 is open in theaters on May 6, 2016.
