Chris Evans to voice, look like Captain America in game photo

Sega has announced today that Chris Evans, the star of the upcoming Captain America film, will voice and lend his likeness to the character in the upcoming game. That is, of course, if you hadn't already made this assumption when you saw Evans' face in the game's screenshots last year.

"Signing Chris to star in Captain America: Super Soldier delivers the cinematic quality and emotional drive that fans expect," says Sega's Senior Vice President of Marketing, Gary Knight. "Chris will help fuel the character's missions as he battles through the enormous Hydra castle full of legendary villains in a completely original story."

I think most fans of Evans probably just want to hear the potentially erotic damage noises he'll be forced to make in a voice over booth.

Captain America: Super Soldier is out this year for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii, and Nintendo DS. I had a chance to check out the 360 version at Comic Con last year, and was even nice enough to grab some video of the game for you. You're welcome!

I'm excited for this game, Cap is my jam. Everyone else can suck it. And by everyone else, I mean everyone who doesn't share my opinion.

'Chris Evans' 'emotional drive', do me a favour. Although he took a fair stab at acting in the sci-fi movie 'Sunshine'.

You shouldnt get to play a superhero twice. They shoud've picked a more serious person like the REAL Chris Evans *The Big Breakfast theme plays*

HA! It's good to know I'm not the only one who found this casting choice kinda stupid. Nothing against Chris Evans at all, but you're already Johnny Storm to me dude, and a pretty good one at that, sorry.

I hope SEGA (<3) can make this Cap game as fun for me as the last Wolverine game was! I really enjoyed the variety in moves/abilities and as repetitive as it was I had a blast playing through it 4-5 times just to snikkity snikt to my heart's content. I know it's different devs, but one can hope.

I look forward to duking it out with waves of WWII baddies and I hope the shield mechanics will keep me laughing and chucking that thing at anything that moves!

Supposedly Matt Damon was their top choice to play Cap and he wanted too much money.

That being said, if Doctor Doom is the villain for the Avengers movie, they better use the $$ they saved on Cap to spring for Javier Bardem or Christoph Waltz to play Doom.

I'm glad it wasn't Matt Damon. Chris Evans looks the part much better than Damon could have. I don't care if he's played a superhero before, especially since I didn't even like the Fantastic 4 movie. There will be no universe shattering paradox.

Would be so much better if it was the other Chris Evans.Don't Forget your Toothbrush, TFI Friday and banging Billie Piper. Shits all over Captain America.

As far as the movie, I only care about the Hugo Weaving parts. As far as the game, the slo-mo power strikes look pretty cool.
