Joe Johnston directing Captain America
Martin Anderson
Jurassic Park III director and SFX wizard to bring the super-soldier to life in 2011…
Published on Nov 10, 2008
EW reports that Joe Johnston, whose Wolf Man is due for release next April, has been signed to direct the Captain America movie. Johnston previously directed The Rocketeer, Jurassic Park III and Jumanji, having come from an esteemed background in visual effects at Industrial Light And Magic.
Captain America first sprang to life fighting the Nazis in 1941, when fine arts student Steve Rogers left his bohemian ways behind to take part in the government experiment Operation: Rebirth, where a super-serum enhanced his physical abilities, turning him into a major weapon against the axis powers.
The super-soldier's first big-screen adventure is set for release on May 6, 2011, though the role has yet to be cast.
