Confirmed: Chris Evans is Captain America

The casting search for Steve Rogers aka the title role in The First Avenger: Captain America has finally come to the end. Marvel Studios and director Joe Johnston have hired Chris Evans for the role.

A few weeks ago a short list was leaked, containing the actors that Joe Johnston was considering for Steve Rogers, aka Captain America, in The First Avenger: Captain America. The list included John Krasinski (The Office), Scott Porter (Speed Racer, Friday Night Lights, Caprica), Mike Vogel (She’s Out of My League, Cloverfield) Michael Cassidy (Smallville) and Patrick Flueger (Brothers, The 4400), Chace Crawford (Gossip Girl) and Garret Hedlund (Tron Legacy). The list narrowed down to Mike Vogel (Cloverfield) and Garrett Hedlund (Tron: Legacy), as well as Chris Evans (Fantastic Four) and Wilson Bethel (Generation Kill). Ryan Phillippe also joined the party, as well as Channing Tatum (GI Joe: Rise of Cobra).

Last week it was reported that Evans was offered the role, but no one knew if he would accept the 9-picture option and low-ball $300,000 salary.  Heatvision now confirms that a deal is done, and they are almost done finishing up the contract — Chris Evans is Captain America.

Filming is set to begin at the end of June in the UK.

Interesting.

Question: Were the Fantastic Four in the Avengers, because if so they'll have to dual screen this guy as Johnny Storm and Captain America, if both are in the movie... If not, nvm... I'm not too good when it comes to knowing who was in the Avengers... lmao...

That's a bad play having one actor plays two roles in the same universe.

I can understand Ryan Renolds playing DP and GL cause they don't exist in the same space.

So far, not liking the direction this movie's going in. >.>

Also, hope he fired his manager (or whoever the hell helped him settle on that low-ball offer).

not as bad as it seems. He's gonna be frigging Captain America. The royalties he's gonna get on merch alone I suspect will be through the roof.

The rights to the Fantastic Four Movie dont belong to marvel at the moment, if marvel gets the rights back, i imagine they would reboot with differnt actors.

@Batzarro: They said A deal was done. He probably asked for a little more than that. I know I would've.

ugh, reboots, reboots, everywhere reboots.

Hulk, Punisher, now Spider-Man, might as well reboot X-Men while we're at it.

I agree, they should reboot a lot of stuff they've done. F4, Elektra, and, most importantly, Daredevil.

I really hope that marvel would get the licenses back form the other stuidos that hold these already. None of them will have a good movie untill marvel gets the rights back.

I havent been too impressed with anything Marvel has done lately. Iron Man is the exception, but it has a director thats a personal fanboy. I think Thor is going to be a hard sell, and the new Spiderman reboot seems like a huge mistake. Having a douchebag Cap that looks like he should be partying at MTV's springbreak doesnt cut it.

Think about it, Bale is Batman, and this guy is Cap. Not even in the same league.

I agree that I dont like this Cap choice right now. Its just too bad the only people who could fit the super solder body type are probably not good enough actors to fill the roll.

I kind hope they let X-Men rest in peace.  After they killed Cyclops, I almost shouted.

Chris Evan as Captain America is frightning.  He doesn't even have the voice.  "Flame On" isn't as hard as shouting "Good Work Soldier".

@Nilakantha: It's like when they killed Johnny Cage in the 2nd Mortal Kombat movie.. everyone just lost interest. It's only one character though... come on... They're doing the origins movies for the X-Men now though, so I don't think they'll reboot the X-Men series any time soon....

The Captain America choice.. in my opinion... eh... Could've done better. They should've had a lot more choices to work with...

This was my choice. Trevor Donovan who my wife watches on 90210. He's a decent actor, and has that annoying all American, blonde haired, blue eyed look to him.

That's the same for Halle Berry as Catwoman and Storm. Jennifer Garner will have one hell of a amalgam fight.

As for the Chris Evans being Cap, I called this awhile ago. I even called that Ben Affleck wouldn't be doing this movie because of the superhero suit. Unlike some females I can't stand the blonde dude on the new 90210, but I like me some silver too. She has rockin eyes.
