Joe Johnson Is Talking again!! This time it's Captain America Casting

Out of all the Captain America movie news Joe Johnston has revealed recently, no one has asked him if the lead role has been cast yet.


Over the past week, director Joe Johnston has let loose more information than any fan would have expected. The First Avenger: Captain America has yet to start production and we know more regarding it's storyline than Marvel's other superhero property Thor, which has already started filming.


Today, About.com's Rebecca Murray released a short interview where she tried prying a few more tidbits from Johnston:

Can I ask one Captain America question?

"You can ask all the Captain America questions you want, but I'm sworn to secrecy. I'm sworn to secrecy."

So you're not going to tell me who you cast?

"We haven't cast anyone."

You have to soon though, right?

"Yeah, soon, we will. I promise you we will. We got a new draft of the script last night and it's fantastic. Even I want to see this movie."

How did it change from the first one? What makes it better?

"Better, tighter, a little more action, more character stuff, a subplot that - I don't want to say anymore. But it is great."

And you are going after somebody that we don't really know?

"I don't know. I don't know. I'm not going to say. I'm sworn to secrecy."

So if I don't know anything about Captain America, I'm going to understand this film?

"Absolutely."

It's not going to be an R.

"No, PG-13, like all those Marvel movies."
