What if Marvel Studios considered a different take on "Captain America", somehow referencing Marvel Comics' crazy 'Commie Smasher Cap' from the publisher's 'cold war' Atlas comic books of the 1950's ? :
"...in 1953, 'William Burnside' discovers the lost formula for the 'Super-Soldier Serum' in Third Reich files stashed in a German warehouse.
"He immediately tells the government about the formula in consideration of becoming the next 'Captain America'...
"...even undergoing plastic surgery to look like 'Steve Rogers', but the government is unconvinced they need another 'Cap'.
"Becoming a disgruntled teacher, the new Rogers befriends rebellious student 'Jack Monroe' and together they access the formula, injecting the chemicals into each other, to become the new Captain America and 'Bucky'.
"The duo fight as 'Commie Smashers', unaware of a 'Vita-Ray' process required to stabilize the recipient taking the formula.
"Ultimately the formula affects their minds, creating psychotic hallucinations.

Chris Evans, along with most of the other original Avengers stars are most likely not going to come back for more films after Avengers: Infinity War-Part 2. There have been rumors about replacing the characters with new actors, such as having Sam Wilson, Aka the Falcon (Anthony Mackie) take over, as was done in the Marvel comic. But would this work? Would people accept a new Cap? There’s a way to test out the public’s tolerance for a replacement actor, and the Agent Carter TV show is the place to do it.
We all know the story of how Steve Rogers, Aka Captain America, was frozen at the end of WW2 and remained on ice until his revival decades later. In the comics, however, there were stories featuring Captain America that took place in the late 1940s-early 1950s. How could that happen? The answer to that question points to...

Writer Stephen McFeely ("Captain America: The Winter Soldier"), has commented on the idea of using psychotic 'Commie Smasher' 'Captain America' from the Atlas series of 1950's comic books, for his "Captain America 3" screenplay, currently being drafted with co-writer Christopher Markus:
Aside from the fact that Marvel Studios have partnered with the Chinese government on co-productions ("Iron Man 3"), McFeely also doesn't think there is enough original material from the 'Commie Smasher' era to justify an entire film.
"You know, there's probably 20 minutes of movie there," said McFeely. "But there's something interesting about a guy who so desperately wanted to be ('Captain America') and be a tribute.."
"...in 1953, 'William Burnside' discovers the lost formula for the 'Super-Soldier Serum' in Third Reich files stashed in a German warehouse.

"Becoming a teacher, the new Rogers befriends his student 'Jack Monroe'. They use the formula on themselves and became the new Captain America and 'Bucky'.
"They fight Communism, but didn't know of the 'Vita-Ray' process that was required to stabilize the recipient after taking the super soldier formula. The formula affects their minds and they became overly paranoid, attacking anyone they suspect of being a Russian spy.

Benefits Street's White Dee and Katie Hopkins came face-to-face tonight (February 3) to debate the country's benefits system.
The show also featured panelists including former London Mayor Ken Livingstone, ex-Tory MP Edwina Currie and former model Annabel Giles, who previously lived on benefits as a single mother.
Hopkins said housing benefits were never set up to pay people to live "where they can't afford to live", while Currie and campaigner Jack Monroe were involved in a heated argument about food banks.
Hopkins's involvement in the debate attracted criticism on social media, with Coronation Street actor Charlie Condou saying that the show deserved "not to be taken seriously".
After watching The Benefits Shouting Match, I've taken the most important message from it - Owen Jones is fit.

According to Deadline, the actress from television’s Revenge, Emily VamCamp just got cast as Sharon Carter!
Not a bad choice.

The following character bio from Wikipedia maybe provides a plot clue:
Sharon Carter is a secret agent. She is an ex-field agent of S.H.E.I.L.D under Nick Fury and occasionally the girlfriend of Captain America.

One of the last stars of the silent movie era
It is in the nature of cinema that an actor who made her last film appearance more than seven decades ago, and who retreated from public view in the late 1940s, refusing photographs and interviews ever since, can still be appreciated on screen as young, as lovely and as fresh as ever. Barbara Kent, who has died aged 103, was one of the last surviving stars of the silent era. She appeared in the last great silent American film, Lonesome (1928), Paul Fejos's masterpiece of urban poetry. Kent played Mary, a switchboard operator, who meets Jim (Glenn Tryon), a factory worker, in Coney Island. They spend the day together, fall in love, and then lose each other in the crowd. The simple tale of "little people" is raised by the sincerity of the performances and by the director's expressive use of location,...

How many Captain Americas does it take to screw in a light bulb? Throughout the years, we've seen our share of Captain America characters in both continuity and alternate-reality time streams. There's Steve Rogers (the original Captain America), John Walker (Captain America's temporary replacement who eventually became the U.S. Agent), Jack Monroe (who was "like" Captain America, but not really because he was Bucky, but not really), and of course the Winter Soldier. Captain America: Patriot #1 (of 4) from the creative team of Karl Kesel and Mitch Breitweiser introduces us to a new Captain America storyline. When Captain America puts on his mask and shield for the first time he instantly inspires an entire nation, including Jeff Mace – a rough-and-tumble reporter— who quickly dons his own star-spangled suit and calls himself the Patriot! During the Great War, the loss of the Sentinel of Liberty is felt throughout the ...
