That's it! Chris Evans is 'Captain America'

Chris Evans has accepted the lead role in Joe Johnston's upcoming superhero movie "The First Avenger: Captain America." Heat Vision exclusively reports sources close to the project confirmed the deal, even though Marvel would not confirm anything officially. I bet we'll hear from them in the coming days. 

Evans will play Steve Rogers, who turns into Captain America. We've heard a lot of things about possible candidates for the role recently, but the search is now finally over. This won't be Evans' first gig playing a superhero. He previously starred as Johnny Storm in the "Fantastic Four" flicks.

Samuel L. Jackson to play Fury in many films

Watch out for Nick Fury!

Samuel L. Jackson recently signed a big deal to play Fury in a bunch of upcoming films, including "Iron Man 2" and potentially "Captain America," "Thor" and "The Avengers,"

According to Variety, this deal may even include a "S.H.I.E.L.D." movie, which is apparently in development already.

Jackson's Fury already showed up in a very brief scene at the very end of "Iron Man," during which he introduced himself to Tony Stark.

This comes as quite a surprise, because "Iron Man 2" has been experiencing several casting issues recently. Mickey Rourke has been rumored to play Crimson Dynamo, but a deal has not been reached. Emily Blunt was also in talks to star in the sequel.

Robert Downey Jr. will return as Stark, and Don Cheadle will replace Terence Howard. Jon Favreau is back to direct the film.
