In a new Varitey interview, John Krasinski shares that he found out he didn't get the role of Captain America eight years ago ... on his wife's birthday. Krasinski says, "My agent called and said, 'They're going to go with Chris Evans, and I remember I said, yeah, look at him. He's Captain America.'" When Emily Blunt asked if he wanted to cancel dinner plans, Krasinski responded: "It's Chris Evans. Of course we're going to dinner."
