Anyway, just thought you guys might like to know that Paramount and Marvel are pretty close to closing a deal on casting Steve Rogers/Captain America and fans might be excited to learn that the short list includes somebody a lot of fans speculated about, Chris Pine. From what I'm hearing, he's the frontrunner right now, though that could change. Can't tell you who the other couple of choices are, cause that'll work against me for reasons I don't want to get into.
 
Anyway, hope this is helpful, feel free to do what you want with it.     

I hope it'll be somebody that we discover and has never been, has probably been in something, but you won't know who he is. You won't recognize him. And we'll surround him with more prominent names. That's who we're looking for. Will we find him? I don't know. It's tough.   

I like Chris Pine but he's not Captain America material

They should go with an unknown. Hopefully that happens and the movie is good, I'd really hate a crappy Cap movie.

Does anyone have a bigger image of that facepalm? I didn't want to spend too much time looking for one. That was the only one I had in my arsenal.

meh, again

Too young!

lol funny if this is actually true (don't think so)
 
Then we would have Kirk and Kirk Sr. in the Avengers

He could be Bucky, but not Cap...

Sounds like some people think Chris could pull off Cap and others don't...

" Too young! "

I would be happy enough, as long as it didn't get in the way of any Trek films.

...Cap Facepalm + "YAAAH" Cap = Beauty.

He did a pretty good job as Kirk but Kirk and Cap are polar opposites. Sure they are both leaders but they have completely different views on how it should be done. Plus Kirk only led for the last half hour of that movie. I think Cap should be done by a young guy since he was 17 I think when he enlisted.

I love chris pine that would be amazing

Meh, looks like a douche. Too tiny as well.

" chris pine is the guy i think should play the flash( wally west ) i have said it for like a year now i could also see him as another super hero some where down the road just not cap "

" RYAN MCPARTLIN for Captain America, he's perfect for the part.  I like Chris Pine but Ryan McPartlin is flawless for this one. "

..... THOR WOULD BE CAP'S DADDY!!!!!!!!

I don't know why but I want to see Matt Damon as Cap

I'd say either Josh Duhamel or Channing Tatum...even though both are pretty known especially right now thanks to their recent valentine films....

" They should go with an unknown. Hopefully that happens and the movie is good, I'd really hate a crappy Cap movie. "

It all depends on what age range their shooting for with the casting.
 
If they are going for a younger cap then I think Chris Pine could pull it off (providing he bulks up for the role) - the same goes for Ryan McPartlin.
 
If they are going for an older Cap - I totally agree on the Mark Valley idea. He's pretty awesome with the action/fighting on Human Target. He's a great actor as well.

Interesting well I suspect that he wouldnt be good for the role but at the same time who would have guessed that Heath Ledger could have made such a splendid Joker. So Im wont rule his ability to act out. By looks he looks more like Bucky then Cap.

you know, now that I think about it, he could be a good choice. 
 
But keep looking just in case

I'm just happy there going to try and make a decent Cap movie in my lifetime for starters- second as far as who plays him, I'm fine with Capt Awesome or Chris Pine or even Jensen Ackles if need be. But if I had my choice I'd prefer Mark Valley just for the maturity value he brings and he is someone I can see others respecting and following when Cap gives the order 'Avengers Assemble!!!!'.

" @Marshal Victory:  If McPartlin bulks up a bit, he'd look exactly like a young Cap. He's not super well-known so that might be an advantage to him as well if that's what the director is looking for. As for Supernatural, it's one of my favorite shows on TV right now - you should definitely check it out. I wouldn't complain either if Jensen Ackles got the part. I know he's somewhere around the 6-foot mark, so he might have a decent enough physicality for Cap. "

 

andy whitfield or sam worthington thats all im saying

Jensen is 6'1",  Jared the actor who plays Sam is 6'4". As much as I love Jensen Ackles I don't see him as Captain America at all. He's a great actor but not right for that role.
