In a recent chat with
Female First, leading
Captain America: The First Avenger star Chris Evans briefly discussed his director, Joe Johnston, and potentially getting behind the camera someday.
"This was one of the best experiences I've had working with a director to date. I felt like my opinion mattered. Joe's not crazy into giving actors too many notes, but that's great. I want to know the technical stuff and he loves to five it."
"We had conversations about script, character, content. It was a really healthy dialogue and made me want to direct even more. Doing this movie could, should, get me a step closer.
The goal is that, even in the last frame of the film, you want the audience to still see him as skinny Steve."
Captain America: The First Avenger focuses on the early days of the Marvel Universe when Steve Rogers volunteers to participate in an experimental program that turns him into the Super Soldier known as Captain America. As Captain America, Rogers joins forces with Bucky Barnes and Peggy Carter to wage war on the evil HYDRA organization, led by the villainous Red Skull. Starring Chris Evans, Sebastian Stan, Tommy Lee Jones, Hayley Atwell, Samuel L. Jackson, Stanley Tucci and Hugo Weaving, the film releases July 22, 2011.
