Chris Evans Reiterates His Initial Reluctance To Play Captain America!

i think he will do fine and with people like us i can see why he would be reluctant to take the role i mean his last superhero movie was bashed to pieces by fanboys(he was the good part).

The thing that some people criticize him for, I find to be a great character trait. He didn't jump right into taking the part. He thought about it and weighed out what it would mean to his life and how it would impact him as well as how he would need to impact the fans and movie-goers. Can't have anything but respect for that.

damn man the video does not work for ppl in the UK

He'll do Cap justice.

jazzman: Same here unfortunately! Most of their videos seem to work here in the UK but I always make sure to put the transcription below just in case!

invictus22: It's three weeks old but unless you watched the live feed on MTV back then, it's not old news if you've not seen it before. I cant help when they decide to distribute these but if you can do better, stop whining and start posting articles. :)

Reluctance To Play Captain America! why does every article on CBM.com have to have an exclamatino at the end of it? Like really, its not that serious lol...
Chris Evans talks about his tights!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

im pretty confident he will do a fine job!

@JoshW

cool... whats funny all the other videos you posted up works alright here in the UK expect this one, DAMN MTV

What has Chris Evans done or shown to you people to give you any idea that he wouldn't be able to give a great Steve Rogers/Cap?

weneedrevelation - Chris Pines cocky, brash Captain Kirk showed you he would be a great Cap A? You make as much sense as the Evans haters!

invictus@ Umm...not all of us go to the MTV site for our CBM news, nor do we search the internet for news all the time. This is the first time it has been posted here, so it is new news for many of us. So....quit your bitchin'!

MTL@ So...much of your problem is with a lot of information that we were given that may or may not be speculation and rumor?

1. Who cares if they said they were going to go with an unknown and then decided not to? It happens all the time in Hollywood. I don't see how that could bother someone.

2. Funny, I don't ever recall see a confirmed final three candidate list. Speculative at best.

3. Once again, speculation and rumor.

4. Rinse and repeat.

5. Have you seen the long list of Hollywood Actors/Actresses who have played multiple superheroes? Irrelevant, as far as I am concerned.

6. It's not uncommon in the film/television industry at all. Back when I was casting talent, we would have advertisers and companies calling us requesting specific talent for the job based on their prior work...without scheduling an audition. I just had a friend who lost his job and has three other companies offering him a job based on their knowledge of the work he did in his prior position. No interview needed. There is nothing wrong with getting hired based on a solid reputation.

7. I would say it is his whole body of work and not just the job he did with the Human Torch. Many haven't seen him in movies like Sunshine and Street Kings, yet they want to associate him solely with smart-ass comedy roles. I would think Marvel checked out all his film work. Refer to last comment.

So, I see nothing unprofessional about the way it was handled.

Right on Ranger14.

I think he's perfect for Cap.
Seriously, Sunshine is one of my favorite movies - I think so many more people would embrace him had he not played the Human Torch...

*Thumbs Up* I'm with the yay sayers! This guy will rock that part OUT!!

There's lots of things to worry about with this movie, but Evans isn't one of them.
I'm way more concerned about the slack ass director, lame costume, and what they are going to do with The Invaders. And what's with the villians?? Red Skull, Baron Zemo, AND Arnim Zola??? lol wtf?

I really don't think he's good for Cap he's more of a comedic actor his face just isnt right for Cap plus he played human torch it just isnt right but I know it really doesnt matter I guess they saw something i don't....

Kapoleon - They obviously saw him in his non comedic roles that you didn't. And saying his face isn't right? Seriously? I can't even comment about that. And were you bitching when you found out Harrison Ford was Indy after being Han? There are so many instances out there where an actor plays more than one super hero in their career. Besides it's a different [frick]ing universe!

about the invaders in the movie there hasn't been any news about there casting huh...there already shooting so i really wonder if they'll be in this movie unless there a really small part of the movie or in the movie at all
