Captain America Movie news John Barrowman was asked at Comic Con about playing Captain America, he gave the stock answer that he would love to play the part and he loved reading Captain America while growing up.
It was clear he wasn't surprised by the question and he would admit that there have been discussions with his agents and there were meetings on the part.
Barrowman has stared in several Musicals in London and has appeared in several TV Shows and films. He may be best known as Captain Jack Harkness in Doctor Who and Torchwood. Harkness is known to dress in World War 2 era fashion on Torchwood.
Re: Captain America Movie news Marvel executive Kevin Feige noted that Captain America The First Avenger would be "Steve Rogers's origin story, and I think it is our burden to make Steve Rogers as appealing as any of our other characters. Setting it in World War II - the Marvel version of World War II - I think is gonna open it up in another big way."
