by Shawn Madden Emily VanCamp Lands Female Lead In ‘Captain America: The Winter Soldier’

Emily VanCamp (Revenge, Carriers) has landed the role of the female lead in Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Deadline reports that VanCamp and Marvel Studios are currently negotiating to lock her in the role, which is believed to be that of Sharon Carter, in the upcoming sequel to Captain America: The First Avenger.

VanCamp seems to have beat out a long list of candidates for the role in the Marvel Studios film. Much like their usual pattern, Marvel Studios have chosen a candidate that wasn’t previously reported to be in the running for the film. Filming is set to begin in a few months on the Marvel Studios film.

Captain America: The Winter Soldier is scheduled to hit theaters on April 4, 2014.
