Romanian Actor, Sebastian Stan Now Up For Captain America Too?

In a recent Captain America update from Entertainment Weekly, they had a name that has never been mentioned before. Sebastian Stan.

Cloverfield’s Mike Vogel, Gossip Girl’s Sebastian Stan; and the unknown, Young and the Restless’s Wilson Bethel. The studio held lengthy screen tests last weekend for at least four of those actors (Hedlund has not yet screen-tested, though sources believe he is the studio’s first choice), and Marvel is expected to have a decision soon.

Sebastian is best-known for playing Prince Jack Benjamin on the television drama Kings and Carter Baizen on Gossip Girl. I'm pretty sure if he is indeed on the list, it's for another character.

Gotta be reading for another part, Marvel confirmed they are only looking for American actors to play Cap.

He's the best kind of American. He's an immigrant!

He is a fantastic actor to be completely honest, but he is not Steve Rogers. Whatever other role he gets, I'm sure he'll do great, but not for Steve.

P.S. Kings was a brilliant show. It should have never been canceled.

Another wimpy, scrawny actor being thrown out there. Thank the stars we know that Johnston has said American only for CAP. There better be a good unknown out there that has some muscle to him.

Did we ever determine if Namor would be included in the Invaders? I'd heard that FOX (douches) had the rights along with the Fantastic Four properties...

I can see them changing a character's ethnicity only to say they have an international cast. Hugo Weaving is British-Australian, and it was said they want a British actress for the female lead.

@Freshman- so are you saying that Hugo Weaving is playing the female lead?

@multi- Well that's good news. I hope they include him then. That'd be tits!

OH BS! BS! BS!!

Your willing to take this Romanian, short, Non steve looking guy from the sucking movie THE COVENANT, and yet you wont have SAM WORTHINGTON who's a great actor, loves the character, wants the role, and is a hard ass. THIS IS BULL!

@multi I don't mean changing Cap's background, but the supporting characters.

His girl friend has a stronger looking figure than than he does. :-)




...and Worthington is a big "NO". He can't maintain an American accent, even if they were looking outside an American for the role.

I wash my hands of all news of Captain America until they cast him. I am so sick of this crap. The non-casting news has made me really not care about this movie anymore.

@Multi If he's Namor, I'm blowing up the set. Namor isn't always drawn well, but I've got a Michael Turner poster of him hanging on my wall that deems him sexy. You guys can have your fantasy female characters with their big boobs or whatever, but we women need our impeccable abs and the arrogant sexy authority. He's no Namor and neither is Vin Diesel or David Boreanaz.

@Ecksmanfan His girlfriend, Leighton Meester, is actually a natural blonde. She dyes it brown for Gossip Girls. She's look better for the role than him.

I'm certain that Sebastian isn't being considered for Cap. Maybe someone else.

Tell me about it.

I'm still trying to get in for a reading, of course I got trashed on here when it was reported that I had auditioned already (which I didn't). I actually have blond hair now, guess I should post a picture.

Maybe I'm not such a bad prospect now?

I'm just not going to bother looking at another nonsensical Captain America article until it's official because, honestly, it's all just hot air and a waste of time. Every other day someone's adding more worthless information that means jack because within a week that's obsolete and it's something else. Forget it. Seriously.

wh0311@ Well, you have the right build and size for Cap and you ARE a Marine (never former or ex...always a Marine) ;-) Not sure how blonde would look for you... Nice photos and keep pursuing the dream!

Allow me to say zzzzzzzzzzzz!

Who cares. Just announce a name so we can all move on.

As long as it isn't Baking Soda I don't really care anymore. I have totally lost all interest in this movie for now.

"Not sure how blonde would look for you"

Well, my hair was already light to medium brown to begin with, and complexion is light enough that blonde looks natural on me.

Two of my pics, my hair looks dark and two looks lighter, so think a little more lighter and we're getting there.

@poni I know its a rumor, what I'M riled up about is that people are so accepting of HIM, and yet detest the notion of Sam Worthington portraying Cap.

This casting for Cap is the biggest c**k tease with the ugliest girl you could find. Marvel needs to cement this f**king cast already, and stop f**king about. Everyday there is some new bullshit Cap actor on this site and it's making me sick.

I think this movie is in serious trouble, they're so desperately looking for the perfect lead, they really should've invested more time in finding a better director.
At least Johnston isn't in for the Avengers

This is getting beyond a joke now! This guy has no redeeming features for this role at all! Still, he's probably a step up from Casper Van-I have the acting skills of a door knob! But then you could stick a mask on a pile of fertilizer and it would be better than him!

I've lost all interest in this rumour mongering. I no longer care who may be up for the role, I only care about who has the role. That's not a dig at you MarvelFreshman, you just posting up the news as it comes out. I just wish all involved would shut up until someone lands this gig!
