The project from "Marvel": "Captain America: The First Avenger". Actors and roles

All the projects of the film company "Marvel" can be considered successful - some pictures were a resounding success, others were exactly and with dignity, bringing their creators, albeit smaller, but still income. In the era of satiety of viewers, the controversial topic, such as the screen version of the comic books about superheroes, turned out to be a gold dwelling. Well, of course, "Marvel" did not disappoint, showing how to work with the cast and special effects. In this article, we will recall where and how the actors in the movie Captain America: The First Avenger noted.

The calm before the storm

The film "The First Avenger" became the final project "Marvel", which told the story of an individual member of the team - the legendary Captain America. As the fans joked, all solo films could be considered long trailers to the main action - the blockbuster "Avengers". At the time of the premiere, the picture is not particularly memorable - it came out sound, but at the same time quite unremarkable. The only thing in the movie "Captain America: The First Avenger", the actors secured a role in the entire franchise - who episodic, and who is full.

Creators

The director of the picture was Joe Johnston, the producer - Kevin Feigi. Of course, the first thing that viewers see is actors and roles. The creators of the film "The First Avenger" saw them that way, thanks to which the cast included Chris Evans, Sebastian Stan, Hugo Weaving and the rest. So, let's get to know them closer ...

"Captain America: The First Avenger." Actors and roles of the first plan

In such films, the roles of the first plan are, as a rule, two - the main character and the main villain.

The main character is Captain America, in the world - Steve Rogers. According to legend, he was a weak, sickly boy, but his desire to defend the country was so great that he agreed to become part of the program to create a super soldier. The boy was injected with serum, which cured all his illnesses, strengthened his muscles and gave him strength, which he could not even dream about. Because of the tragic confluence of circumstances, Steve became the only soldier in this program (as everyone believed at that time), since the scientist that perfected him was killed. The role of Steve Rogers was played by actor Chris Evans. According to him, he doubted for a long time whether to agree to the role, and rejected the proposal three times. He was frightened by the thought that he would be tied to subsequent projects ("The Avengers" and "Captain America") for many years, which would deprive him of the right to choose. Now he laughs at his fears and openly rejoices that the company "Marvel" managed to convince him. It is easy to understand: after appearing in the movie "Captain America: The First Avenger", the actors became known and loved throughout the world;

The main villain is the Red Skull, formerly called Johann Schmidt. Representative of the Third Reich, obsessed with the idea of a superman. I introduced myself a serum similar to the one that Rogers modified, but the consequences were different - in addition to the strength, Schmidt got mad and a face that looks like he was skinned. Hugo Weaving, familiar to everyone on the role of Mr. Smith from the "Matrix", with his usual skill played Schmidt, awarding him in equal parts of both impressive and grotesque.

"Captain America: The First Avenger." Actors and supporting roles

The roles of the second plan in the film are more diverse.

James Bucky Barnes. A childhood friend of Steve Rogers, rescued by the last of the captivity. Fun is the fact that many viewers did not even notice him while watching the first film about Captain America and they were subdued only after the release of the second part, where the action takes place these days, and Bucky Barnes returns as Winter Soldier. This role was so fateful for the actor Sebastian Stan, who coped well with the task - his silent mercenary was more eloquent than other central characters.

Peggy Carter. Lady of the Heart of Captain America, played by Haley Atvel.

Colonel C. Phillips. A harsh but fair soldier in the performance of Tommy Lee Jones, who gave Rogers a chance and did not regret.

Howard Stark. Talented inventor and father of "Iron Man" Tony Stark, author of the costume and shield of Captain America in the performance of actor Dominique Cooper.

Doctor Erskine. The creator of Captain America in the small but memorable role of Stanley Tucci.

Arnim Zola. The scientist, the Red Skull minion and the creator of the Winter Soldier, played by Toby Jones.

That's all we wanted to tell you about the film "Captain America: The First Avenger". Actors and the roles they played, took their place in the constellation "Marvel" and in the hearts of comic fans.
