America Viggo Mortenson. If not for the Bourne movies I would never thought about Albert FinneyN no Matthew Damon could possibly do it. Or maybe they will throw a curve ball and cast Terrance Howard.

I seriously can't think of anyone either. Maybe they'd have to do a national search for an unknown? Interesting suggestions Porter, but I’m not sure any of them fit the bill in my mind.

I know a lot of people thought he was great, but I want my dark, brooding vigilante to be able to scare me, not make me laugh at him in his latex fetish-wear while I do rattails with his cape. McConaughey as Cap might even be worse. He's laconic. He's a bs artist. He's not a super soldier. I'd suggested Aaron Eckhart the other day and still like him for the role. I could also see (this is a bit more of a stretch) Peter Krause. He'd have to bulk up, but he can handle drama + dry comedy and has a deep, commanding voice. Jon Hamm, maybe. He's got everything required for the role, but for being dark haired. My last one, guaranteed to elicit a chuckle or two (maybe followed by a nod of interest) is Mark-Paul Gosselaar. That's right.
