I can’t really picture Krasinski as a trussed-up steroid junkie, but it would be nice to get Captain America away from his Aryan roots. Although I guess that made his initial reason for being (a.k.a. Hitler) a little more poignant, unless they’re going to posit him against the forces of the Third Reich again, it’d be nice to see someone a little less WASPy under the hood.
The thought of Krasinski doing the Cap is outrageous to me!
Outrageous in a good way or bad way?
Oh, sorry…I think it’s an awful idea. The only thing worse would be Jack Black or Will Ferrell
