Adubis? Try again. I'm sure you could do better than that.
Its a generality. Not all citzens in the UK look "British"... but there are certain characteristics that can make a person look like they are from specific regions. It may be hard to pinpoint. He reminds me of Sean Bean. I think its his hard shaped nose and the height of his cheekbones. He has a very anglo saxon, western European look to him.
For example...
You can't tell me this guy doesn't look Russian...why does he look Russian? Can you put your finger on it? There is something there (maybe you can't put your finger on it, but its there) that tells you he's eastern European.
Maybe its my artistic eye, but it is something that I pick out.

no, there's more. I can't really explain it.
I don't think it would be out of character for Cap to be southern.I think people need to realize that in reality a person with a fitness level equivalent to Cap would be much leaner then he is portrayed in the comics. He would have much more a gymnast's physique than a bodybuilders or a wrestlers. Some size is important agreed. But I agree with the poster that said overall the actor should be in really great shape and have excellent definition.
Oh and MM's accent is way too think. No way he could get rid of that southern drawl and Cap aint no hick!
I would be OK if they made Cap a southerner... but he was from NY wasn't he??? Just checking...
And yeah... Kilmer is a pretty fit dude... certainly he was at the time of his Batman performance (granted, the suit's muscle tone was beyond his own nature physique). But Keaton obviously needed help.
And just as a side note... padding the turtles was no big issue.
such conviction1-Cap can't have a Southern accent.
