It was only a matter of time. With Captain America: The First Avenger rolling at full steam now, we were bound to get a sneak peak at Steve Rogers in full Cap attire. Well, Daily Mail is the first one to snag some set photos featuring our patriotic hero himself filming a motorcycle chase scene – from Agents of H.Y.D.R.A.! The report states that that isn’t actually Chris Evans in the costume, but a stunt man, but it’s still pretty cool to see the costume “IRL” – and Zombietron should be thrilled that there are wings painted on his helmet/mask thing!
My first impression was that the costume looks a little cheesy, but sometimes things don’t translate from a basic set photo (Yes, I know that’s ironic coming from me, who just layed in to the set photo released earlier today of January Jones as Emma Frost – but that was more about casting complaints, not the costume . . . and the personal grudge I seem to be holding against FOX). Also, if I remember correctly, the costume stems from something Steve Rogers is forced to wear to support the troops at a USO-type show – which he then modifies into the costume he continues to wear. So maybe this is the former?
In any case, pretty exciting to see! You can check out two of the photos below, and the rest of them along with a set report over at Daily Mail!
