The Winter Soldier is stepping in for Captain America. It has been announced that Sebastian Stan will be replacing Chris Evans in the Netflix film, The Devil All The Time. It appears that Evans dropped out of the project due to an issue with scheduling.
Stan will costar alongside Tom Holland, Mia Wasikowska, Robert Pattinson, and Bill Skarsgard in the film which is an adaptation of Donald Ray Pollock’s 2011 mid-western gothic novel that Antonio and Paulo Campos co-scripted. In the forgotten backwoods of a place called Knockemstiff, Ohio, a storm of faith, violence and redemption brews. Out of desperation to save his dying wife, Willard Russell turns to prayer which succumbs to sacrifice. This sets our protagonist Arvin, Willard’s son, on his path from bullied kid to a man who knows when to take action. He interacts with a nefarious cast of characters: a serial killer couple, a faith-testing preacher, and a corrupt local sheriff in a story that is told across two decades.
Chris Evans has added a lot to his slate lately. He committed this week to star for director Antoine Fuqua in Infinite, the tent pole Paramount sci-fi film, and he is about to start production on Defending Jacob, the Apple series he’s starring in and producing.
Sebastian Stan was last seen in Destroyer and may or may not make an appearance in Avengers: Endgame
