Has Captain America been cast?

First Showing recently interviewed Neal McDonough (Band of Brothers, Tin Man) about his new film Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li. However, at the end of the interview it got really interesting.

I asked him about what he's doing next, as part of a question about what he looks for in scripts. And at the last second, he said that, "I think it's time for me to go back to playing some of the really good guys who can get the job done, like Captain America, maybe." I immediately asked him if that was a hint, and his response was even more confusing.

What do you make of that? Still very much a rumour but do you think McDonough is right for Captain America? Could he lead the Avengers?

Brilliant actor this guy. He was good in Tin Man but I feel his best performance was Band Of Brothers. (BoB - possibly the best 10 hours of television ever made)

Still never seen all of BoB. He was also in one of the Star Trek movies if memory serves and Regenesis or some such named TV show.

However, do you think he could play Cap?

Billy Zane!

Well that goes without saying. The Zane should be first choice for every role going.
