Marvel Still Looking For Captain America
By Mike Fleming | Tuesday March 9, 2010
Marvel Studios and director Joe Johnston want to be really sure they’ve found the right actor to star in The First Avenger: Captain America. Marvel has slightly expanded its search — adding actors that I’m told include Chris Evans, who already logged Marvel Comics superhero time as Johnny Storm/Human Torch in two Fantastic Four films. Of the original contenders, two are still in serious contention: Mike Vogel (Cloverfield) and Garrett Hedlund (Tron: Legacy). Hedlund was on Marvel’s original wish list but didn’t test at first. Scheduling was th reason, but I also heard his reps balked when Marvel informed them that the job would include options for 9 future films and a salary of only around $300,000. It’s not going to work out for the other actors who tested: Chace Crawford (CW’s Gossip Girl), John Krasinski (NBC’s The Office), Scott Porter (NBC’s Friday Night Lights), Michael Cassidy (CW’s Privileged) or Patrick Flueger (Brothers). Paramount Pictures will release the film July 22, 2011.

That’s disapointing…I was hoping he’d get the part.
I really wanted Chace to get that role. Poor, bb. Footloose got shelved and now this?
He deserves so much better!
@15.11: So did I, but it seems that Marvel/Paramount and the director are changing minds every two seconds, as far as I know John was going to be and then he was out, so in a good side is good that Chace is out is like M/P are just playing
@Chelsea: I know so did I, but Footloose is still a go, is just on hold until next year but they have a new director so is still one
