The soon-to-be-huge Channing Tatum has spoken about reports linking him with the role of Captain America, In Joe Johnson's big screen adaptation of patriotic do-gooder. He told Cinematical "Captain America? Oh my God! Oddly enough, I just got given a book - one of the painters came up and here gave me a book. I would think about it. Maybe it's destiny! I would definitely think about it - I just got done doing G.I. Joe, though. If Joe does well, and it doesn't seem to be the exact same story, then I would. I don't know. They seem to be very, very similar - almost identical. Except for the - I think he takes a serum? Like a strength serum? (But the WWII setting) could be very very cool." There you have it, he pretty much wants to do it, so if Marvel were going in a slightly younger direction then Tatum would be perfecting casting for the part. Once GI Joe doesn't bomb, that is.
