In a testament to the state of modern journalism, MTV's Splash Page is reporting what may very well be the biggest movie news in months -- or merely an unsubstantiated rumor. Addressing the state of the film industry during an interview to promote his new movie Miracle at St. Anna, star Derek Luke remarked offhandedly, "I heard they offered Will Smith Captain America.” Cue the discussion board floodgates.

Will Smith is Captain America… NOT!
Well, it was fun while it lasted. Earlier today, there was a rumor started by actor Derek Luke saying that Marvel might’ve offered the role of CAPTAIN AMERICA to Will Smith. But apparently Derek Luke was just talking out of his butt just like how any other rumor got started. AICN contacted multiple sources at Marvel and found out that Marvel never offered the part, nor did they approach or entertain a conversation about Will Smith for CAPTAIN AMERICA. Phew! That’s a relief, ain’t it?! No

Bullshit Movie Rumor: Will Smith as Captain America (OFFICIALLY DEBUNKED)
Derek Luke is an actor who is “hearing” things that aren’t true. Either that, or he’s listening to fans of Will Smith who have never read the comic books, and couldn’t possibly “get” that yeah, even Hollywood wouldn’t dare turn Captain America, aka Steve Rogers, into a black guy and let Will Smith play him. Because, frankly, it worked so well when they let Smith played Jim West in the big-screen version of “The Wild Wild West”. Yes, that’s ri

Happy Weekend From Will Smith
Well actually, Will Smith didn’t say that personally. We’re not buddy buddy or anything. He doesn’t even know I exist. But I’m sure if he does, he’ll wish us all a Happy Weekend. I just couldn’t think of a clever way to feature this hunk of a man. All I could think of is that he and wife Jada Pinkett are matching beautifully with their dark gray ensembles. They look so hot together, AND separately, it’s sick. I should hate Jada but sister’s got it going on her
