THR is reporting that Chris Evans (The Human Torch from the Fantastic Four) has accepted the role of Captain America in the upcoming The First Avenger: Captain America movie.
What is it with all these superhero movies casting the same actors to play different superheroes? First Ryan Reynolds playing both Deadpool and the Green Lantern, now Evans playing the Human Torch and Captain America. You would think studios would want a unique face for their leading role, not someone who is already playing a superhero in another current franchise.
