Now Ryan Phillippe As CAPTAIN AMERICA?
The search for the perfect Captain America continues, just days after Hugo Weaving's casting as Red Skull. In the latest news, Ryan Phillippe is the next actor seriously being considered for the role of Steve Rogers, a sick young man transformed by a serum into the indestructible superhero. I doubt if many Captain America fans would like that casting choice, but I don't think they'd be happy at this point if Captain America rose from the pages of the comic book to portray himself. I personally love the idea of Phillippe playing the character, if only from a physical perspective. Phillippe has the all-American, apple-pie looks and is in terrific shape. While looks are a fairly superficial reason to cast someone, an actor playing a character like Superman or Captain America needs to have a certain instant eye appeal. Phillippe has that in spades. Out of all of the nominees for the role thus far considered, I like Phillippe, Chris Evans, and Mike Vogel for the role. Here are all of the actors currently aligned for the role. Which one do you prefer?
