We still don’t know who’s going to be Captain America in the upcoming Captain America movie directed by Joe Johnston. But it’s been at least revealed that Hugo Weaving would play the role of the Villain as the Red Skull.

Captain America Hugo Weaving as Red Skull

The Red Skull is Captain America’s greatest foe, a nazi minion who worships the forces of evil…

Have you ever wondered why Captain America is wearing a flag costume? Well, Joe Johnston wants to answer this unraised question in his upcoming Captain America movie:

It’s been confirmed (understand “reliable hearsay”) that Red Skull will be the main villain in the upcoming Captain America movie directed by Joe Johnston.

Director Joe Johnston gave an a short update regarding the upcoming Captain America movie:

Captain America Movie Trailer

Director Joe Johnston should fast-track this Captain America movie so we can move to the Avengers movie. Because with global warming under way Captain America can’t remain frozen in the ice forever (Captain America at some point get indeed stuck in the ice and spends decades frozen in a block of ice in a state of suspended animation, until the Avengers manage to locate and save him.):

If nobody comes to unfroze him asap for the Avengers movie, it’s gonna be really hard to bring Captain America back to life (picture courtesy That’s My Skull)!

Thanks to the Box Office Magazine we may learn a bit more about Director Joe Johnston’s take on Captain America, the upcoming live-action movie that will be released in July 2011:

Captain America directed by Joe Johnston

A new live-action Captain America movie is set to be released in July 2011. The film will directed by Joe Johnston (who helmed Jurassic Park 3, the upcoming Wolfman movie) based on a script written by Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely. Filming of Captain America should start in June 2010. So I guess the movie cast of Captain America will be officially announced in the coming months.

Captain America Movie

Plot:
“After being deemed unfit for military service, Steve Rogers volunteers for a top secret research project that turns him into Captain America, a superhero dedicated to defending America’s ideals.”

Marvel has been slowly building up the buzz around Captain America with Easter-eggs hidden in the previous Marvel movies (like the Super-Soldier serum seen in Hulk, or Captain America’s shield briefly seen in Iron Man). So the movie Captain America, the first Avenger, has to be awesome otherwise the fans would be quite disappointed…

Anyway, who do you think would be the best fit to wield the shield of Captain America? Sam Worthington maybe?

Thanks to WorstPreviews we may have a look to the alternate opening of the Incredible Hulk that will on the DVD released at the end of this month.

Here below the Incredible Hulk alternate opening:

Incredible Hulk Alternate Opening

I’m striving to see Captain America, but so far no convincing proof for me… It is said that he -actually his shield- appears at 2:22 mark of this alternate opening of the Incredible Hulk.

Well, I’ll have faith until I can buy a DVD so I can make my mind. For now the screen cap of Captain America frozen in the ice will be enough:

More Easter eggs at: Captain America Crossover, Easter Eggs and Clues

Someone should hurry to deliver Captain America from the ice though: I’m worrying for his health!

Update: Captain America is indeed in this opening, at the 2:22 mark you may spot his shield in the bottom left corner, youtube user kingmanshh has a better version and made some captures:

you’ll see Captain America under his shield, frozen in the ice!

The chaps from FilmschoolRejects have been analyzing their promotional copy of the upcoming DVD of the Incredible Hulk and they spotted an Easter egg: it is the cameo of Captain America once promised by Director Louis Leterrier. Indeed you may remember his words:

So here is the appearance of Captain America in the Incredible Hulk:

I am sure you are craving for you own DVD of the Incredible Hulk by now. Cannot miss the occasion to catch a glimpse of Captain America!

Update: Watch the alternate opening of teh Incredible Hulk that is said showing Captain America frozen in the ice at: Incredible Hulk Alternate Opening With Captain America?

You have probably heard of the Captain America movie set to be released in 2011. But do you know that it won’t be the first Captain America movie? There was indeed a movie featuring the hero in 1990, it was starring at Salinger as Captain America:

The First Avenger: Captain America Is A Reboot Movie!

It may not have been a real box-office success but I did honestly enjoy this first Captain America movie. But Captain America deserves much more. So I don’t mind a reboot Captain America movie.
