Talking to Chicago Sun-Times about his new movie, The Devil's Double, the Captain America: The First Avenger star talked about what it was like to work on the Marvel Studios movie as well as the chances of a sequel. However, he failed to mention whether or not he's signed up for more than just the one film, but here's hoping we do indeed get to see Howard Stark again in future. Cooper also comments on his role in Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, letting slip a few new details in the process. Here are a couple of excerpts from their interview, but be sure to check it out in full by clicking the link below.

You also play inventor Howard Stark in "Captain America: The First Avenger." Any word on a sequel?

You never have a clue if a film will strike a chord, but this movie has such a unique vision of the past and the future. It takes you back in a simple way with style where you don’t feel bombarded by special effects. For me, it was such a different experience than "The Devil’s Double." "Captain America" had a vast size to it. These guys from Marvel set the tone in that they were so passionate about the characters. I’m sure there will be sequel.

Can you give us a little scoop about your upcoming film "Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter?"

We have Tim Burton’s incredible mind producing it and Lincoln at the center of it. There is this fantastical idea of vampires operating in a time of slavery. I play Henry, who is a guide. It’s unclear exactly who I am and where my interests lie. Basically, the idea is to rid the world of vampires. … It’s a very clever concept with some historical background. You have the history of America and vampires. But I can tell you that I’m not a vampire. Or two vampires. Or a vampire double.

In Captain America: The First Avenger, there's a scene where Mr. Stark was messing with the Cosmic Cube for the first time. They should've pointed out that his assistant was Ivan Vanko's dad, even though he wasn't lol I thought it would've been a nice easter egg if he said "Mr. Vanko, write that down." Haha just a thought....

I loved him as Tony's dad. He just felt so much like Tony. I can't wait and see where next they'll take this franchise!

He says Marvel are so focused on characters - if only they could focus a little more on the stories in future.

As for Cooper, he looked the part but man, that terrible american accent. I thought Slattery was more than capable as a 1960's Howard Stark.

Yep, mentioning Vanko would have been neat.

@Jazzywazzy- My bad I should've said a sample of the Cosmic Cube, the one Rogers gets from the HYDRA facility. Would've been cool to have him in the that scene where they actually find the Cosmic Cube towards the end and the guy speaks to him in Russian telling the found it too.

@weneedrevelation agree 100%, he was awesome as Howard Stark.
I saw Cap for the first time today and it's tied with Iron Man as my favourite Marvel Studios film. Completely amazing film, blew my expectations out the window
