Marvel has decided it’s time to move past the concept image stage and onto the real thing. The latest issue of Entertainment Weekly features Chris Evans donning the red, white, and blue Captain America suit and holding the shield. Yeah, I like what I see. Too bad he’s not wearing the super cool helmet. That reveal will likely come as we get closer to the theatrical release of Captain America: The First Avenger. It opens nationwide July 22, 2011. And there’s more where this came from. Look in the gallery below to see more stills of Evans as Cap, as well as a glimpse of Hugo Weaving as the Red Skull. EW, keep ’em coming.

Concept images of Thor & Captain America emerge
This week images of the next two Avengers have leaked into the wild. First there’s Thor the Norse god who wields the Mjolner hammer. (If you have not seen Iron Man 2 yet, make sure you stay for the credits for a sneak peek of said hammer.) If you are doubting that this image of Thor is real, just compare it to the official still of Chris Hemsworth as Thor outed by Marvel a few weeks ago. The concept image matches up pretty well if you ask me. Thor is expected to hit theatres May 6, 2011.
Next we have the first (ever) image of what Chris Evans will look like as Captain America, the first Avenger. And you know what, he’s looking pretty bad-ass. From the mask to the sheild (which was also hinted at in Iron Man 2), the suspenders, and the kevlar red-white-and-blue retro-fitted suit, Cap appears ready for the big screen. Captain America: The First Avenger, directed by Joe Johnston, is expected to hit theatres July 22, 2011.
Look in the gallery below for more concept images of Thor and Captain America.
