Marvel EIC Says Captain America “Will Have Everyone on Their Feet Cheering”

I wanna see the costume.

how should cap fight when doing hand to hand?

like the bourne movies?

@Marvel. HAWK has that same dream all the time.

@Phoenix LOL. Marvel really doesn't know what they do to us. I remember in the 9th grade, I actually had the dream before, and woke up still believing it. It wasn't until hitting the shower that I realized I had to go to school.

"is stan lee marvel"

Pretty much yeah. He's the founder of the f*cking comics for Christ's sake. I would think that he knows what's up when it comes to the casting of Captain America, Marvel's golden boy.

Evans has been listed as Cap everywhere, not just Variety. IGN, THR, Deadline, etc. Weaving was in the Variety article. Variety is a trusted Hollywood source.

Marvel isn't "announcing" it because they are probably still going through the very final stages of negotiation. As in, dotting the i's and crossing the t's.

People seem to forget that Hemsworth wasn't officially announced as Thor for a long ass time after he was said to be cast.

"why would marvel advertise on site when iron man and thor casts are mae, yet their golden boy cap has been cast"

Because both films are further along in development than Cap. Or because Marvel is waiting to announce the whole cast. Or because they are finalizing the deal, which yes there's a tiny chance Evans could back out, but that far in, I highly, HIGHLY doubt it.

Why can't people just accept that Evans has been cast? Not only has it been EVERYWHERE, but people who work for Marvel (Brubaker, Favs) and people who created Marvel (Stan) have confirmed it. You say why hasn't Marvel confirmed it? Well, why haven't they debunked it? This news is seriously EVERYWHERE, on basically every single site imaginable.

Yeah, perhaps Evans is in the final stages of negotiation, but come on, face it, he won't back out. That's grasping at thin straws which are being slowly pulled away further and further from your arm reach.

And dude, you act like the Stan Lee article was nothing but rumor LMAO. It was from his own twitter! That he personally wrote! Laughing that off as nothing is what I consider ignorant and lame. You're kind of overreacting at my comment a bit. I said that there was an article devoted to Stan Lee's comments on Evans as Cap. And yes, there was, but it wasn't something that was pulled out of the author's ass, it was the REAL DEAL. It wasn't a fake Stan Lee twitter account, that was HIS account. And he confirmed that Evans was Cap on HIS account.

*4 most important

Chris Evans is Captain America. If it weren't true, Marvel would have been dismissed it, instead of not commenting.

i'm with tyler here, chill out dude...

I haven't changed my tune. My point still stands that Stan confirmed Evans. And I consider Stan's word to be just as good as Marvel's, which is why I said what I said in my first comment, which was what again? That Stan confirmed Evans. I consider Stan's word to be Marvel's word. Honestly, it's a matter of opinion actually, opinion on how much of Stan's word should be trusted. I feel that he should be trusted just as much as Feige would, you obviously don't.

I imagine that there aren't tweets about Weaving because the Red Skull casting isn't nearly as significant as the Cap casting.

This is getting tense i think we need some BOOB PICS so everyone can chill out

How he will fight should be like how Tim Roth fought in the best part of TIH.

But this time when Evans jumps over Nazi's and shoots them in the face they should be dead :)

Cap should fight the exact same way Emil Blonskey did when he was fighting the Hulk in IH. doing carwheels and flips. thats how i imagine it anyway.

"umm marvel's greater objective is to debunk rather than confirm?"

yeah, if someone is said to be Cap, it would be much better for them to NOT comment, IF he's really Cap. because if its true, what does it matter if they confirm it now or later? he's Cap no matter what.

But if someone is said to be Cap, when they really aren't, it COULD hurt their movie. if people think the wrong person is playing him, then it might turn people off. look what happened with Krazinski. he was said to have the role, and within 24 hours it was debunked because it pissed everyone off.

so yeah, the fact that this hasn't been debunked, even though its being reported by a LOT of news sources, AND on television. AND Stan Lee AND favreau both commented on it, its safe to say that Evans is Cap, lol.

@ wingpow

yeah! he should definately have a gun during the WWII. not when he's in modern times with the avengers, but in WWII? for sure! and thats not too crazy a change either. in Ultimates, he uses a Tommy Gun in the WWII scenes, and these movies are definately taking elements from both the regular MU and Ultimate universe. so it wouldn't be that crazy at all man :)

I wonder if because it is a PG-13 Marvel movie, they'll give him one though.

THIS IS AMAZING! I just want to post articles of no relevance but mention something about Captain, and see the arguments about Evans.

Ah. So Joe does know he sucks..
