    Captain America

    Character » Captain America appears in 11752 issues.

    During World War II, Steve Rogers volunteered to receive the experimental Super-Soldier Serum. Enhanced to the pinnacle of human physical potential and armed with an unbreakable shield, he became Captain America. After a failed mission left him encased in ice for decades, he was found and revived by the Avengers, later joining their ranks and eventually becoming the team's leader.

    If the best actor to play the part is Christian Bale (or any british actor) who did a fantastic job as Batman, Why not? Bale is American, Anyone who lives in America, Are'nt they an American?

    Once they touch US soil, there a US citizen.

    Regardless....

    I have no idea who should play Cap.

    Just being in America doesn't grant you citizenship..ask immigration....

    Okay when you say something like that...u should give ur view on WHO WOULD MAKE A GOOD CAP.....
    not just rag on other peoples thought...cause the last two Batman movies have have zero to none martial arts and he's suppose to the one of the best!
    Point is they can work around  the fighting part"

    I alreay said I think Paul Walker would be a good Cap.He has the whole look.He may not be the best actor in the world..but maybe it's the parts he plays.There are alot of actors I think are really good but just can't play certain parts.For Instance.I think Halle Berry is a great actress...but she cannot play a superhero.Storm & Catwoman were failures.Paul Walker has the blonde hair,the blue eyes and the stubble on the chin.Her is also an American unlike Christian Bale.

    Now that you bring up the last two Batman movies...the lack of martial arts in both those movies pissed me off.In the first one..when he was Batman..most of his fights were overshadowed by his cape..you could just see people getting hit..not what he was actually doing...HOW LAME.
    "

    COOL i totally agree with u now...thanks for explaining

    Paul Walker would be a good pick for Cap.. as long as he doesn't say dude every other line. :)
    I think Mark Wahlberg would make a good Cap.. but would definately have to do some camera angles cause I think he might be a little to short for the role. But hey they make Tom Cruise look over 6 feet tall in his movies :)

    John Cena as Cap. good lord no. you guys must be the type that loved elektra, ghost rider, and catwoman. that is what cap movie would be like if that horrible actor plays cap. looks doesnt mean everything. i mean yes, get a blonde blue eyed guy, but all i care about is them getting a GOOD actor. marvel is doing good so far with their movies, jsut please dont screw cap up. or im gonna go crazy and shoot some shit up. =cough=

    Paul Walker looks good. but i dunno... he was pretty shitty in fast and furious. i actually have no idea on who should be cap... someone not that popular and that can act good. come on there has to be like 1000's of actors out there to pick from.

    I liked Elektra..but Cena as Cap is a dumb ass idea.If you think Hollywood cares if a good actor plays Cap..your mistaken.

    I'll have to agree with you about today's actors. Also about the CG, although like I said for Thor if you just do it for the character it won't look so fake. Hulk looked "realistic" with a real background behind him. I mean look at Beowulf, if that wasn't done in total CG it would have looked more realistic.

    paul walker would be a great choice....if we could only implement that whole "good actor" thing inside him.  has the look and the build, but when you give sylvester stallone and keanu reeves a run for their money in the bad acting department, that's saying something.  personal requirements:  blonde, huge, blue eyes, can speak in an authoratative manner without sounding TOO cheesy (i know, it's a stretch), someone over 6'1'', and the guy who plays him can't have some drunkard, im-an-idiot-celebrity rep.  leave that to iron man.  this is freaking captain america.  if they don't put everything they've got into making this film amazing, it doesn't say much for the country.  the man's an icon.

    No Jessica Alba looks great period.That wasn't Sue Storm..it was Jessica Alba playing dress up.

    I don't think he needs to be american......ut's not about the country he comes from, as long as he's a good actor and looks like him enough, they should be able to do it
