Chris Evans offered Captain America?

Looks like former Fantastic Four actor Chris Evans has been formally offered the 3 film role of Steve Rogers in Captain America: The First Avenger.

If the source is correct (and Evans reschedules his Romcom with Anna Faris set to shoot at the same time as Cap) we could be seeing Evans in the red white and blue this summer.

THR reports

Sources tell us the actor, who once donned superhero garb in two “Fantastic Four” movies, has been offered the role of Captain America.

Marvel has not confirmed the development and CAA, which reps the actor, declined to comment.

Evans’ offer would include starring in up to three “America” movies plus “The Avengers” movies and appearances in several other Marvel movies.

As much as I would prefer Chris Pine or Ryan (Captain Awesome) McPartlin, I think I am ok with Chris Evans in the role.

He has the sharp good looks, the physique, and is a pretty good actor.

And while some sites have their underoos in a twist over this, I don’t mind that he once played the Human Torch since Marvel is already planning to reboot that franchise with someone who looks good as a blonde as Sue Storm. So he wont be playing a double role (because that never happens in superhero films) since the Fantastic Four franchise is done for now.

What do you think of Evans if he does take the job?

I like this a hell of a lot more than John Krasinski.
