A past contender for the role and fan of the comic serise, Abasom, has these parting words for those in CBMF.
"I'm dissapointed, I wont deny it, I mean i really wanted it you know? Ever since my master who you know as SoulEater read me epic stories of Steven Rogers the Captain of Freedom and Justice and the American way and all that....I dont know it just got to me. I would have loved to see him portrayed to his penerth. I hope that doesn't come accross as pios, i certainly dont think myself the ONLY person to play him, in fact i'm very happy for Chris Evans, he's been given a big honor in my book, i hope he lives up to it. I would have just loved to have been given the shot to portray him to his highest."
When i asked him if now that he's had a sweet taste of auditioning for a SUPERHERO role if he'd decide on taking any more offers should they come his way, this was to be said:
Absalom:"Certainly, I mean just the fact that i was considered was enough to psych me out on any scale (No pun intended)"
TheSoulEater: "So do you think you have anyone in mind at this time of who you'd want to play after this captain america news?"
Absalom:"I really dont know....I'm still kind of healing from the turn down ya know? Still I guess if bucky is open i'd give it a shot, I wouldn't get to carry the shield but hey, bucky does eventualy right? *laughs*"
TheSoulEater:"In closing you just said that you wished Chris Evans well. Do you have any parting words for those on CBMF and him?"
Absalom:"I really thank you for all your support, it meant more to me then you'll know...you beleived in me and backed me...and um....I really really hope this ISNT a perminant good bye, hopefully you'll get to see me on the big screen some time in actuality. As for you mr. Evans, You treat Captains Character right you hear? I dont wanna see you saying flame on by mistake when you assemble the avengers. But in all honesty, good luck and knock em dead, you are the Captain." *Salutes*
