Chris Evans as Steve Rogers/Captain America

Again, there’s no place on this list for Iron Man. But there’s a place for someone better, someone that captures his role perfectly. And that someone is Chris Evans. Evans appeared in a couple of comic book movies before he signed with Marvel, but his role as Steve Rogers/Captain America was the one that defined his career.

Evans doesn't just look the part; he accurately captures Steve Rogers’ emotions, which are the emotions of an actual outsider. The actor perfectly displays his character's morality, especially during his interactions with his fellow Avengers.

Evans took this role and made it his own. There are people who believe that Iron Man is the core of the MCU, but we beg to differ. Without Evans as Captain America, the shared universe would just consist of a series of quips and action sequences.
