People had no faith in Evans because he made a niche for himself in shitty comedies.
To go back even further, no one had faith in Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, since he was mostly known for his performances in musical theater.

And if we want to go even further beyond, horror icon Robert Englund, who was the OG Freddy Krueger, was considered to soft and lovable to believably portray a supernatural killer.

Robert Pattinson's best work wasn't Twilight, by far. But he's proven himself to be a real actor with great talent when given a script that isn't utter shit.



Yeah, it's kind of hard to portray him as a martial artist when the man is basically wearing twice his body weight in armor.

Now it's come full circle as Batman has proved itself to be a serious viable franchise that can win awards and is now going for a talented actor who was in a franchise that suffered similarly to Batman & Robin. The tale of two Batmen.

I’ll think on it then. I’m still hesitant but your arguments are valid.
