Stanley Tucci is Captain America's Creator

Stanley Tucci had a great 2009, but how can he follow up the one-two Streep-loving/child-raping punch that was Julie & Julia and The Lovely Bones? With a superhero movie, of course. Today, Marvel announced that Tucci will play Dr. Abraham Erskine, the scientist whose secret experiment creates the title character of Captain America. Oh good: nerdy, tortoiseshell-glasses-wearing Stanely is the best kind of Stanley. [Coming Soon]
