Chris Evans Casted As Captain America

It is being rumored that the studio wants either Channing Tatum or Ryan Phillippe to play Steve Rogers in the title role. Today it also broke that Keira Knightley is up for the role of Betsy Ross.

Whatever Marvel studios decide, I have faith in their decisions as both Iron Man and The Incredible Hulk have been 2 of the better Marvel movies released.

Interesting. It isn't real clear though if Bucky will be in the film or not. Hmmmm. Later movies would be cool if they brought in The Falcon.

Chris Evans has been offered the role of Steve Rogers, but he is hesitant to take the role. You would think playing the lead role in your own movie would be an easy choice.
