''Captain America: The First Avenger'' is the 2011 feature film adaptation of the Marvel comic book series. Directed by Joe Johnston (''[[The Rocketeer]]''), the film stars [[Chris Evans]] as Steve Rogers, a young man from Brooklyn who during the Second World War, desires to join the war effort, but is rejected due to his undersized stature. When he volunteers to be part of a secret US program, he then finds himself genetically transformed into the world's first super soldier. The film is also part of the same Marvel film universe that includes ''[[Iron Man]]'', ''[[Iron Man 2]]'', ''[[The Incredible Hulk]]'', and ''[[Thor]]'' and will culminate in 2012's ''[[The Avengers]]''. | '''Captain America: The First Avenger''' is the 2011 feature film adaptation of the Marvel comic book series.
