I didn't realize that first video was just a first look 😭 HOLY SHIT, we got so many Easter eggs—WE EVEN HAVE HIM DANCING! Fresh Zemo content in the year of our Lord 2026 was not on my bingo card, but Christ, is it keeping me alive. Thank you for the fan service, Magic Cards!

German commercial for Magic the Gathering/Marvel Super Heroes starring Daniel Brühl

Happy ReBirthday Vergil!

(NOTE: article was auto-translated from German to English)

Over the past decade, Magic: The Gathering has produced some truly legendary promotional clips for its trading card game. Unforgettable moments include the War of the Spark trailer featuring a rendition of Linkin Park's hit song "In the End," the animated glimpse into the whimsical world of Bloomburrow, or most recently, the puppet theater for Lorwyn Eclipsed.

Now, a new one seems poised to join the ranks, as Wizards of the Coast managed to recruit German star actor Daniel Brühl for the perfect edition.

Shooting Preparations with Daniel Brühl

The 47-year-old arguably received his biggest international popularity boost playing the role of Zemo in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. However, as we were assured on set, he is not playing this villain in the commercial for the upcoming MtG set Marvel Super Heroes.

The reasons for this are likely legal in nature. That said, Brühl's look is very heavily inspired by the comic book Baron, complete with a leather coat and leather gloves.

Does Daniel Brühl normally leave the house dressed like this?

And story-wise, this version of Daniel also doesn't seem too far removed from his film and series role. In the video, we see him in a dark location. The lighting is dimmed, even flickering occasionally.

Evil Daniel in His Magic Hideout

With a massive stack of various booster packs and booster boxes—arranged, not by coincidence, to look like a city's concrete jungle—he builds himself a deck composed of villains, which are set to face off against the hero deck of influencer RvNxMango later in the clip. Any Magic fan would probably have started hyperventilating at the sheer volume of cards just casually lying around on set.

We will likely find out who gets the upper hand in said duel shortly before the release on June 26 via Wizards of the Coast's channels—or slightly earlier, exclusively right here on IGN Germany.

I remembered this from Undertale, I wanted to do it with Vergil. I've been having a lot of DMC drawing ideas lately :]

This is by far the worst thing I’ve ever made
