As of today, none of the requests have a status or a programming staff acknowledgement. That does not mean it is not/will not be worked on. Features are introduced in the Beta version first. And there is still VERY active development of the captioning/text-based editing worklow. A major advance relative to animated captions was the "Upgrade caption to graphic" feature. The plug-ins mentioned below appear to use this and mogrts. It makes the options quite powerful.
As @Kevin-Monahan noted, there are plug-ins that will do this. The only 2 I have looked at are not free, and short trials. SubMachine, that he mentions, has a one week trial and is currently $8 per month, $80 per year, or $150 lifetime. Captioneer has a 14 day free trial, and is $10 per month, $100 lifetime.
This thread was created awhile back. By now, I'm sure you know that the latest captioning features allows word-by-word captioning. To add on to that, a plug-in called Submachine is the current solution for Premiere Pro and social media word-by-word captioning with a color highlight.
I hope the info helps.
Thanks,

Has anyone been able to figure out how to animate captions in Premiere Pro to match the Express captions style: Blocks. It looks like the image below and the block moves based on what the person is saying. So far, I have the whole section of captions highlighted in the green color but its not animated like how Express does it. Any help would be useful! Thank you!
Thanks for writing in. This feature is not available as a preset in Premiere Pro. You'd have to create it manually or with a plug-in called "Submachine." I'll merge this post with a similar feature request.
Thanks, Kevin
