Hurrah! It’s official! Chris Evans has signed on the dotted line, and is now going to be playing Captain America in the upcoming Marvel flicks.

Well done Chris, you fought off a lot of stiff competition, with other actors considered including Michael Cassidy, Patrick Flueger, Mike Vogel, John Krasinski, Chace Crawford and Ryan Phillippe. The only problem now is that we have seen Evans in a super-flick before, as Johnny Storm in Fantastic Four. Does it matter? Some hard-core fans will probably be non too pleased about the clash, but frankly, we’re just happy that a decision has finally been made. Word is that the Captain is in line to star in nine movies, so it’s by no means a choice to be made lightly.
