News broke over the weekend that Marvel Studios will begin shooting The First Avenger: Captain America in June 2010.

Captain America will at that time be the fourth Marvel Superhero to make it onto film following the recently formed Marvel Studios joining the fellow Avengers, Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk and Thor.

The news broke during an interview with Fangoria magazine. “The Wolfman” director, Joe Johnston dropped literally the briefest of tidbits during a promo interview for his latest horror flick:

Principal photography was now less than four weeks away. “By the time I got on a plane and arrived, it was three,” recalls Johnston, speaking from the art department of THE FIRST AVENGER:CAPTAIN AMERICA, which he’s readying for a June start.”

Very little else is known at this point about the project although fan speculation has been rife as to who will don the iconic stars and stripes outfit for Captain America’s first big screen outing. Among other names thrown into the pot have been Leonardo DiCaprio, Matthew McConaughey and Jensen Ackles.
