Possibly the villainous role Andre Holland was up for. I've seen some people speculate it's Taskmaster, but with all of the possible spy characters I wouldn't be surprised if it's an obscure one, like The Actor. There were those rumors that Marvel's planning something with Deathlok.

It's honestly about time Taskmaster came to the MCU, so I'd be all for him. As for Deathlok, I wonder if him being in the film will contradict AOS in any way. Something I found out on the SHIELD subreddit was that Garrett was Deathlok 1.0 while Mike Peterson was Deathlok 5.0.

So as long as they keep to AoS' canon that Deathlok was a joint HYDRA/Cybertek venture, they can introduce whoever they want as Deathlok.

However, judging by Iron Monger, Red Skull, Loki, Abomination, Yellowjacket, Kaecilius and Killmonger, we're going to get a power clone of Black Widow as her first solo villain, which Deathlok wouldn't be.

And since they're casting for male villains, that would seemingly rule out Yelena Belova, so I'm betting all of my money on Wolf Spider, since he is literally the male counterpart of the Black Widow.
