Chris Evans explains how consultation should sense about Steve Rogers and his own personal inspiration for the part :
“ This is kind of an origin tarradiddle , and if by the conclusion of the picture you ’re still seeing ‘ Skinny Steve , ’ I think that ’s what the audience will like … On a more personal level , I have a booster who ’s a Brobdingnagian mirthful ledger nut . He ’s the best human being I have it away . He ’s an Eagle Scout — do you know what an Eagle Scout is ? It ’s a Boy Scout who ’s been a Boy Scout for … way too long . He ’s just a good man . He does the right affair . He wo n’t even tell a white-hot lie . He ’d rather do the right thing — his morals are intact and he ’s baronial and honorable . He is Captain America to me , and I based the persona off of him . ”
Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige also clarify how the villainous Hydra agree into the World War II setting :
“ Hydra begins the movie very similar to the [ comic book chemical group ] A.I.M. , the Advanced Ideas and Mechanics chemical group , working as sort of a special weapon division of the Nazi party . ”
The article also explains how the whole “ Captain America as USO entertainer ” fit into the film as a whole :
Like most fighter , Cap does n’t begin off as the bold , iconic hero that we know him to be . In fact , fear a hit on public esprit de corps should their one and only super soldier die , the military forces Rogers to be a garishly - plume character in war bond ads or USO show . This sequence allow Marvel to not only nod and heartbeat at Cap ’s fairly cockamamy original costume , but pay court to the original Captain America cover version , which features our Heron punch Hitler in the jaw . In the film , Rogers is punch an actor in a staged sequence to harbour the armed services .

Ridley Scott confirmed that a key motive behind the movie was the desire to search the mysterious Space Jockeys that were glimpsed but unexplained in Alien . He then went deeper with some , uh , interesting interpretations of current scientific possibility :
“ The ( space ) journeying , metaphorically , is about a challenge to the gods . NASA and the Vatican agree that is almost mathematically unimaginable that we can be where we are today without there being a minuscule help along the way . That ’s what we ’re looking at ( in the film ) , at some of Eric van Daniken ’s ideas of how did we man come about . ”
For the record , van Daniken ’s “ ideas ” ( I use the term loosely ) hold that alien made repeat contact with ancient man and helped along their developing . I ’m no expert on what the Vatican thinks , but I ’ll say mighty now that NASA does n’t even remotely conceive whatever Ridley Scott seems to think they do .

Well , it ’s get the farmhouse that was build in the late 1800s , I think . It ’s get such a glorious , beautiful , Andrew - Wyeth - painting , Southern Gothic find to it . And then it ’s also beat just a hint of the house from Amityville Horror or from Carrie . It ’s got this wonderful blend of smasher and isolation and it ’s just a little bit creepy .
