He almost played Captain America

I read they were considering him for Captain America, but he was busy filming The Punisher. Even though he was good as The Punisher, it was a bad movie. I wish he never did it. I wish Dolph Lundgren played Captain America. He looked the way Captain America should look. I have never been impressed with the way Chris Evans looks in the role. I always thought whoever played Captain America should be bigger and more muscular. Dolph Lundgren would've been the best Captain America.

This was just a rumor, director Albert Pyun said that was not the case.

He'd have made a better Thor.

Viltrumite, exactly what I was thinking, in his younger days, he'd be the perfect Thor. Not that Hemsworth is bad.

He would have not been good. Plus he isn't American. They made a point of casting an American actor. I think Evans is the perfect Captain.

He basically played Thor in Masters Of The Universe since that movie was made as a Jack Kirby homage since the director was not interested in He-Man.

He basically played Captain Commie, the USSR equivalent to Cap, in Rocky IV, close enough I say.
