BREAKING: Chris Evans Returning to Marvel As Captain America

Chris Evans Captain America

After Chris Evans was thought to be finished with the role of Captain America following Avengers: Endgame there are now reports that he may reprise the role in the MCU in some form.

Evans is expected to return in at least one Marvel property with the deal leaving thee door open for him to appear in another movie later, according to a Deadline report.

Sources add it’s unlikely to be a new Captain America installment and more likely to be like what Robert Downey Jr. did after Iron Man 3, appearing in films like Captain America: Civil War and Spider-Man: Homecoming.

Evans had previously indicated he was finished playing Captain America after the character’s arc had seemingly been fulfilled by the end of Avengers: Endgame. “It was a great run and we went out on such a high note that it would be risky to revisit it in my opinion. It was such a good experience and I think it’s better left that way,” Evans said in May.

In his last appearance, Evans portrayed a version of Captain America who was handing over shield (and mantle) to Anthony Mackie’s Sam Wilson. Mackie brings Sam Wilson to The Falcon and The Winter Soldier on Disney+ in March, a production which has already wrapped.
