Ryan Phillippe Marvel were aiming to have their Captain America cast by the beginning of March but they have yet to make a final decision, and it appears they are throwing more actors into the mix. According to HitFix Ryan Phillippe (Crash, Flags of Our Fathers) is the latest actor to be considered to play Steve Rogers.

Phillippe joins Mike Vogel, Garret Hedlund, Chris Evans, Scott Porter, and John Krasinski who have been screen-testing for the role over recent weeks. The fact that Marvel keep trying out other actors means that they obviously haven’t found what they are looking for yet, but we should be getting an announcement before the end of the month.

Out of the actors list above, who would you like to see land the role?

    I would be a lot happier seeing Ryan Phillipe in the role than anyone else. Right age, good looks, has the right build, and doesn't have the stench of already fantastic failure. Plus having a bigger name, would bring in a lot more money, and I would love a team of Robert Downey Jr. and Ryan Phillipe
