At the Comic-Con panel for the third season of Dr Who spin off, "Torchwood" Barrowman expressed his desire to play the first Avenger himself!
MTV is reporting that the onscreen Captain Jack told the audience that he'd like to play another popular Captain -- namely, Steve Rogers.
"You know what I want to play? Captain America," Barrowman proclaimed to the wildly receptive crowd, before adding that it "so won't happen."
Still, Barrowman's appeal has at least one supporter. An audience member later went to the microphone to tell the actor, "I think you're the only one who could play Captain America."
God loves a chancer! Barrowman certainly has the looks and build for Cap, and he's a solid actor. I'm not a big fan of Torchwood. However, he has gained a legion of fans with both that, and appearing in Dr Who previously.
Look at it this way, I'v heard worse suggestions!(Ahem Jason Lewis)
