Chris Evans Stayed Away From Captain America Rumors

Chris Evans was at WonderCon today in San Francisco to promote his upcoming film The Losers. HITFIX was lucky enough to speak with him.

This directly from HITFIX...

'Evans was a late entry into the casting process, but he beat out a slew of other candidates including Channing Tatum, Ryan Philippe, John Krasinski, Chace Crawford and Mike Vogel. It was not a situation Evans seemed to enjoy.

"I try and stay away from all that. That's almost none of my business," Evans says. "It's a slippery slope when you start reading that stuff. I have enough trouble doing press. You end up living in your own head a lot more than you'd like to and you start reading that stuff and it's a dangerous game to play. So, for the most part, I tried to stay out of it."

Fans are often curious about what may appear to be the most mundane things. In Evans' case, that means hair color (really). More specifically, whether or not Evans will dye his hair blond like Rogers' in the comics. A scenario Evans got out of when he played the fair haired Johnny Storm in the "Fantastic Four" films.

"I don't know it's up to them. I have no idea," Evans says. "It's just happened. I haven't talked to anybody, so I have no idea."'


"The Losers" opens nationwide on April 23.

Multi: Isn't his hair more blonde than usual in The Losers?

Why's he so pessimistic about talking to the press, I wonder?

Thanks Hawksblueyes.

Like I've said before we are going to get a weak looking Thor, and a Cap who looks like he worships keg parties. Thank God for C.G.I so at least the Hulk can look right. Hemsworth still kooks like a track runner with no size on him, and Evens lloks like Steve Rogers before he became Cap.

@Wadey: Agreed. I'm trying hard to see Evans as Cap.

@Assassin: DON'T JINX THE MOVIES!!!

I thought I remembered it blonde. Yeah, thats weird, he would for the Losers but he isn't sure for Cap.

IF MARVEL THINKS HE'S THE ONE...I WILL GIVE HIM THE BENIFIT OF THE DOUBT..YOU NEVER KNOW, THE GUY JUST MIGHT SURPRISE US...REMEMBER HEATH? KEATON?

GUNSMITH: I think he is going to knock it out of the park. I just find the hair phobia thingy a little strange.

He was sort of dirty blondish in The Nanny Diaries, and is blonde in The Losers, so I don't see why he wouldn't do it here. Plus, if it's not his decision, and it's up to Marvel like he says, that seems like it points to Cap being blonde.

Isn't it difficult to impossible to die crew cut hair? (Multi would know. He works very closely with Nick Furry.)

He could dye his hair before he gets the crew cut.

"REALLY?"

With that list of candidates he saved the day....The Hair color is up to marvel anyway..

SHHH: I agree completely.

If you really think marvel will throw all this ca$h at these these ppl and there not physically ready???

Btw The worst Hair in a movie was Ghost rider..

The Only movies marvel made was Iron Man and The Incredible Hulk..I think..

They could have picked someone much worse to play Cap.

But then again, they could have picked someone much better.

Ah well. We're stuck with Evans, so we might as well get used to the idea of him playing Cap.

Multi: You may be on to something bud. That could be the magic Marvel casting sweatshirt.

If there is a part to be cast and we see someone on the shortlist sporting the magic sweats, BAM! Thats the man for the part.

Add some more blonde highlights to this and he will be fine.



Hemsworth looks like a triathlete? Huh? Look at his biceps. Triathletes are skinny.

Lee@ Learn to separate actors and movies. When you watched Sherlock Holmes did you see Ironman? If you watch Clash of the Titans did you see Avatar. Really...you have to get over it. They're actors.

@ASSASSIN666: You've gotta get over the whole size thing and look at it as them making a good piece of cinema. Also, everything points to Thor donning the chainmail, so he'll look bulkier anyway. This guy was up for the part but couldn't act for shite:

@Upupandaway: How does he sit or take a piss??

@Hawksblueyes: The list is a DoucheBag Lineup...You know i'm glad they stayed away from CW NBC, ABC, and the sci-fi channel and taters "tatum"..

@SHHH: There's an elaborate system of tubes and wires installed in his home. On the road, he uses maxi pads in his man-thong.

@MPP: I have a sweatshirt like that. Does that mean that I've been cast by Marvel and don't know it? : )

WASN'T THAT SEBASTIAN DUDE ALSO IN THE RUNNING FOR CAP,BUT DROPPED OUT AND NOW HE'S BUCKY?NICE FIND THOUGH
Ranger14
Ranger14 - 4/3/2010, 10:37 PM
I agree that he shouldn't be a pure blonde. Just blonde highlights and it will be fine.

Antonio@ Sebastian tested for Cap and ended up with Bucky. Nice find if you like a wimpy looking Winter Soldier. Hopefully he is on a 1-5 year muscle building plan. I doubt they will have just Bucky in 5-6 movies.
