The latest development in the ongoing "Captain America" casting saga? According to The Hollywood Reporter, Chris Evans has officially been offered the much-coveted role.Though Marvel and CAA decline to comment, THR's source says that the offer includes up to three "Captain America" movies, in addition to appearances in several other Marvel films.
It seems that every young male actor in Hollywood went out for the role, including TV favorites Scott Porter, Jensen Ackles, and John Krasinski.
Of course, if Evans accepts the offer, it won't be his first time playing a Superhero. Evans is best known for his role as Johnny Storm in "Fantastic Four" and "4: Rise of the Silver Surfer."
So, comic book fans... what do you think of Evans as Captain America?

Terrible choice !!!
He's a great choice. I'm looking forward to this movie.
considering that there maby be a chance of rebooting The Fantastic Four I think Chris Evans may do the job. He did really good in Push and Cellular one of my favourites
On one hand, I think he could do well in the role...but I kinda have misgivings about someone playing 2 different major Marvel characters like this
Good Johnny Storm, bad Captain America.
bad choice should have been Will Smith
Ditto on the negatory. His brother, actually, would be a better fit than him. Do not want.
What happened to Ryan MCPARTLIN??????????
I don't get it!! Ackles had dropped down since the schedule conflicts! and now u tell us he tested?!
This guy seems like a first class prick! Why the hell are they RUINING the Avengers by having this DB as the greatest American comic hero EVER!?!?!
