Captain Chris

It seems we have us our Captain America.

After much speculation, Chris Evans reportedly has received an official offer to play the iconic superhero in up to three Captain America movies, as well as The Avengers films.

Evans might have a conflict, though, since he’s supposed to shoot What’s Your Number? with Anna Faris this summer – at the same time that Captain America is set to go into production.

Ooh la la.

Anyway, I think Evans is a solid choice – he certainly has the abs for it. But I hope the powers that be won’t make him too much of a wisecrack, which is the vibe he often puts out there.

Update: Evans’ casting is a done deal: He will star in The First Avenger: Captain America for director Joe Johnston.

Matrix star Hugo Weaving is thisclose to signing on to play Cappie’s nemesis, Red Skull.
