Chris Evans is an extremely famous actor recognized for his role as Captain America, since he was one of the first Marvel superhero movies we know today, alongside characters such as Hulk, Iron Man, etc.

As the years go by, more and more information is being revealed about things we didn’t really know about the movies and the characters, and it seems that Captain America would not be played by Chris Evans, since he didn’t want to play him.

Actors who play the Avengers are usually friends also off-stage, not only because they spend a lot of time in the recordings, but also because they live in the same world of show business, making them advise each other and decide to take the best options for their career and this would have happened with the famous actor Robert Downey Jr.

When casting began for Captain America, Halley Finn quickly thought of Chris Evans.

“He was American. We have chosen many British, but we wanted to choose an American. And a great actor, funny, charming, affable and all that. But beyond the obvious qualities, I think there were others that were a little harder to discern: his humility, the sense that he had a moral compass, that he was very identifiable. He has this vulnerability as well as strength, so we could take him from Skinny Steve to Captain America,” Halley Finn said at the time.

Chris Evans, wasn’t too sure about accepting the role: “I like my privacy. The great thing about movies is that they bring a lot of freedom: you make a movie and then you have time off. If one of those movies comes along and changes your life, you have the opportunity to make it… and then run away. If you want to. Take some time, reevaluate and regroup.”

Robert Downey Jr. persuaded him to join the UCM, promising him that Captain America would open up many opportunities for him as an actor and that at no time would he stop him from doing so.
