Zemo wearing his coat

Helmut Zemo's Coat refers to certain fur coat that Helmut Zemo (portrayed by Daniel Brühl) wears in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier series. It was inspired by WWII Russian and Polish military overcoats. The coat was very popular among Zemo fans that it earned its own AO3 tag.

Fandom

Suitkovia

In behind the scene of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Daniel Brühl performed an infomercial for Suitkovia - a fictional clothing line based in Sokovia - while staying in character and showed that the coat was produced by said clothing line. Although it is purely parodical, many fans adopted it as headcanon.

Thunderbolts Potential

Daniel Brühl mentioned that he hadn't been given the permission to take the coat home after they had finished shooting, thus leading some fans to speculate that he was coming back as Baron Zemo for future MCU projects.

I mean look at this magic.. how could you not give him the coat? unless this means, it's going into a secret vault until Zemo's big return in Thunderbolts @Marvel @falconandwinter 💜😈🔥
