Thanks for the kind words guys. I'm trying to do what I can, since that's all... er...I can do. (ackward Austin Powers moment).
Matches,
I do have an agent that I've been with for three years. He does know about me wanting to play Cap. I just talked to him about a showcase I did with Randi Hiller, who was the casting director for Iron Man 1 & 2 as well as Thor. She liked me enough to invite to another audition they where doing on the side for a non-paid job.
He did submit me for Thor but I never got called in. Casting directors and producers with go the bigger agencies first then go to the smaller ones if they need to but they usually get what they want with the top six agencies in town (there are a few hundred in LA!)
I don't think Chris Hemsworth had that big of an agent, but he did have a manager that believed in him and got him in a second time after they passed on him but still didn't find what they where looking for. The second time, he brought the Thor goods.
Schmucker,
I know nobody has really seen me act, but trust me, I am trying to change that. Now that the SAG fiasco is over with, we can all go back to work!
Oh, and the body thing, I don't think I am too big either. I looked big in that hot tub pic because I was pumping up like crazy because I didn't feel like I was cut enough to be on TV at the time, so I figured I'd at least be look big!. Also, that thing about the camera adding 10 lbs, seemed to be true. With my height and frame, I'm a bigger guy and athletic, but I am not John Cena huge.
JBB,
Thanks for the comments. I know I am not everybody's cup of tea when they think of CAP, but I am drawn to at least TRY to get the role. I feel like I am suppossed to for some reason, and that makes me want to. Also, I'm not offended by people thinking I look more like a CAP villain. Of course that is not my goal, but as a fan, I think Crossbones and John Walker are fantastic characters. Actually, if I had the role, I'd like to see John Cena as John Walker in a CAP sequel and maybe somebody like Roland Kickenger as Master Man and some other buff dude for Crossbones. Of course that is my opinion.
Thanks guys,
Wade
