He could have easly auditioned for 2 films. Pjsd123, next time you see Mike tell um 790's hoping he gets the role for Captain America !!! He would be great as the Super Soldier, and I'd love to see him move into films. Kortoso, casting companies often cast for many films. He could have easly auditioned for 2 films.

Sure, he isn't a main stream actor but he is one of the hardest working people I know. He is no Brad Pitt but he isn't half bad either! As for the steroids accusations - he is a 4x Mr. Natural Universe Champion! You guys have no idea how much he can bench and deadlift! He is all natural. But everyone is entitled to their own opinions, I'm just here to stand up for my friend. I’m a little torn after coming across this page as Mike is a personal friend of mind.

More so than Dwayne Johnson. Also,,,,,, about the steroid acusations. Mike O,Hearn prides himself on being steroid free...... He has openly come down on steroid use, and claims that he has never taken them. He also claims that ALL the American Gladiators are "Steroid free", and during casting that was a big issue for NBC.

If they do it will bomb just like Punisher, DD, the first Hulk and wasnt there some other Marvel movie that tanked? Not the last FF- it wasnt too bad. Huge No for Cap and Conan.

Dudes like that DON'T KNOW ANYTHING about Captain America. He is, perhaps, the most principled hero in all of comics. He is a Presidential-percieved leader, and the BEST FIGHTER IN MARVEL, including Wolvie (look it up). That pic is just corny. There's no way his acting is on the level of Downey or Norton or we would have seen him. NO. WAY. 2)For the streoid peddler who said that the SS is basically a steroid, I say, THATS WHY THEY FILTERED IT OUT OF HIS BLOOD IN THE EARLY 00's!! His blood metabolized the formula and reproduced it naturally. So, Captain America is NOT a 'roid freak. Trust me, I know. Also, when the original concept was created, it was more in the vain of sci-fi "secret formulas," not "Better living through drugs." Please do your homework before throwing out ridiculous comparisons. 3) On the other hand, I like the ideas of Aaron Eckhart, or Mark Wahlburg, or even Brad Pitt. Marvel WILL get an established actor to play this role. Watch. 4)CAPTAIN AMERICA WILL NOT BE PLAYED BY SOMEONE NOT FROM AMERICA!! Dangit, get a clue! This character is the EMBODIMENT OF AMERICAN SPIRIT--not some Brit faking a New England accent. OUT My list of responses to this thread:

Captain america doesn't have to be roid huge. Look at roth superman, storngest man in the universe and looks small. So Capt doesn't have to be that big, hes just human!

He is a big good looking guy-nice,great for him but can he embody the role of Captain America leader of the Avengers,WWII veteran,Super Patriot? No he can't he isn't trained enough. Mark Wahlberg is more Captain America than this guy. John Cena is more Captain America than this guy. I could go on...as for Conan- no. I have seen women more Conan than this guy- he may as well get on the radio and say he is also up for Shazam and the Superman sequal.
