Same here. I don't think there's a single person up there who i think could fully capture cap

Jensen Ackles or Patrick Wilson should play Captain America and Mads Mikkelson was made to play The Red Skull!

Cool article 6of13! :)

@ Joshw24...it's such a tough one for me when it comes to villainy because he did such a good job in Bond, but after watching Waltz in Inglorious Basterds, that guy comes off more sinister than i assumed. And with Daniel, the guy is simply Daniel...his presence on screen regardless of his role, comes off as someone everyone on set tries to stay away from

@multi, based on looks alone ( by no means do I want this guy for cap, want to make that clear) I would go with Lewis. Again just looks alone.

Based on talent and looks Ackles all the way

MULTI: well, im not sure if you know but im a huge supporter of Jensen Ackles playing Captain America but now that you've posed that question to me based only on looks and how I imagine both the regular and ultimate Cap, then I would say Patrick Wilson would be my choice!

@multi...I totally agree, you can't cast this role purely on looks.
Also, whoever is cast in the part will have to look like Steve Rogers before and after transforming into Cap.

@josh, funny how we all have different opinions. I can't see Wilson as Cap at all. I would have picked Casper on looks alone but I find Lewis has more of a chisled look

6of13: I'd like to take credit but it was InTylerWeTrust who came up with the brilliant idea for Mads to play Red Skull! I came up with Bret Harrison for Bucky and Patrick Wilson for Cap though, lol! :) If you get chance check out my Captain America fan cast (a few articles below this one as well as my other fan casts!)

spideysweb: yeah,there is definitely no general consensus over who should play Cap - a lot of people want Ackles, a lot of people want Worthington and a few groups of users want others like Pitt etc! Oh and LEE wants Jason Lewis! ;D

MULTI: Well, after seeing Blood Diamond and The Departed, I have to agree that DiCaprio could play quite a good Cap!

I was just watching Die Hard 3 and got to thinking...Jeremy Irons for Red Skull.

Leo will take his childhood voice to the grave. He's a brilliant actor but can't pull off "Manly Super Soldier" if it meant saving his life. His acting chops while stellar do not in any way inspire leadership, let alone a super powered team's leadership. It would be like Tim Drake leading the entire Justice League. Acting skills alone does not equal natural commanding presence. Jensen Ackles has all that is required.
