EW'S FIRST LOOK-Chris Evans as Captain America

[suzanne78.livejournal.com]

*Mods: I hope this works! It's been awhile since I inserted anything on LJ...*





Quote from article, out tomorrow on newsstands

“At the time, I remember telling a buddy of mine, ‘If the movie bombs, I’m f—-ed. If the movie hits, I’m f—-ed!’” After declining the part three times, Evans took a meeting with Marvel execs and Johnston and was dazzled by their plans for the movie. He still felt wary about suiting up for Captain America — but then he had an epiphany. “I was just scared,” he says. “I realized my whole decision making process was fear based, and you never want to make a decision out of fear.’” Evans signed a six-picture deal with Marvel to play the character, and he has no regrets: “I can’t believe was almost too chicken to play Captain America.”

-does dance of unparalleled glee-

The jaw! The shoulders! The hair!

Hi, Cap!

[suzanne78.livejournal.com]

I know, right? I pulled something, squeeing as hard as I was!!

Chris is TOTALLY Cap. The hair is just... perfect! And he's all red white and blue steel looking at the camera!

I really, really think they're gonna do justice to Steve Rogers. Can't wait until next year.

I'm quite certain I just made a sound only dogs can hear.

[suzanne78.livejournal.com]

I admit I made a rather inhuman sound myself. This is just... UNF!!

He. Is. Steve Rogers. I need this movie to do a bazillion dollars so everyone will finally get why I love Cap so much.

Now... article needs to give us Bucky. Like yesterday.

[marinarusalka.livejournal.com]

Why, helloooo there, handsome!

Damn, Evans is looking good. I mean, he looked good at ComicCon, but he's looking really fantastic here.

[suzanne78.livejournal.com]

Heh, for me, Chris always looks fantastic. But, him being all "Steve Rogers: SRS BSNS!!" here is so... *EPIC FLAIL*

I'm not saying I'm gonna camp out at B&N tonight to get the first copies that hit the newsstands tomorrow... but I'm VERY!! sort of a little tempted.

[valtyr]

Oh my God, yes, he looks perfect.

(Also, six picture deal! :DDD)

[suzanne78.livejournal.com]

I need that article with all the deets like yesterday! LOL!!

A lot of pro-Cap boards had been starving for news, so this is like a gorgeously sexy rain shower after a very long drought or something.

Now, we need text-free pics for our artists on this comm. Mmmm.... movieverse manips NOM NOM NOM!!

I SAW THIS A COUPLE OF HOURS AGO AND I CAN'T STOP SQUEALING!

[tsukinofaerii.livejournal.com]

*wolf whistle*

Crossing DW lines to ogle. I'm going to have to get a copy of this baby. Omnomnom.

[dieewigenacht.livejournal.com]

I'm going to have to go and kidnap that baby.

[cookinguptales.livejournal.com]

I've had a tab open with this all day. I may or may not keep coming back to it to squeal.

I had my reservations with Evans at the very beginning, but oh my goddd. I am so crazy excited for this movie now.

[silver-autumn.livejournal.com]

My ovaries just exploded. :D

(I'd post them, but my lunch break is almost up.)

*THUD*

[cygna-hime.livejournal.com]

Somehow, in all that I zeroed in on the words "six-picture deal".

I would pay for six movies of that. Oh yes. I'm not entirely sure they could script so badly I wouldn't call it worth it, as long as he grinned like he does in the photo at least once per film.

Best of Marvel's recent marketing decisions. No contest.

[muccamukk]

Well, that will include other franchise films he's in, like Avengers. I don't know what the other four will be though.

Your icon is exactly how I feel about this picture.

[truthiness-aura.livejournal.com]

My pants just exploded. FOR AMERICA.

From the article:

[truthiness-aura.livejournal.com]

Another great quote about Evans' reluctance to accept the role, from Kevin Feige (the chief of Marvel Studios) and director Joe Johnston.

"Feige says he was actually impressed by Evans' reluctance; he believed it reflected a maturity befitting Steve Rogers. Adds Johnston, "He has really brought a whole different level to the character that I didn't know existed- more real, more complicated, more vulnerable."

STEEEEEEEEEEEEVE.

[mirai-gohan.livejournal.com]

Oh my goodness that quote. I can't believe he turned them down three times, but I CAN believe that they STILL wanted him to do it--he's too perfect. The more I see of him AS Steve, the more I realise that no one else could play the part.

Also: SIX PICTURES?! Oh my god. *dies from joy at all the stuff we're gonna see him in*

...so d'you think he'll have a major/minor/whatever part in Iron Man 3? :D

[muccamukk]

Please take a moment to review previous opinions on this matter.

[tsukinofaerii.livejournal.com]

I will gladly eat my words, without ketchup if it gets me more shirtless scenes.

[13-lucky-charms.livejournal.com]

I AM SO EXCITE FOR BUCKY NOW 8D

[vulpesvortex.livejournal.com]

Look at him being all serious and adorable! <3

[ewanspotter.livejournal.com]

... is that Balto?

[illuminatius.livejournal.com]

Mmmm. Hel-looo.

Even if the movie were to bomb (which I hope it won't), there will be eye candy.

Its cool!!

[dantechick.livejournal.com]

I still think Channing tatum (spelling?) whold have made a beter Cap but I love Chris.they just should have bleachd his hair more.too brown for me.
Yes I am picky. :)
