According to Deadline, citing insider sources, Evans might once again be suiting up as the iconic superhero in one or potentially two new Marvel movies. Where do you hope to see Chris Evans come back as Captain America?
Others could not care less about scenarios, but are instead simply delighted about the possibility of their favourite hero's comeback.
With 11 Marvel Studio credits under his belt, he exited the Marvel Cinematic Universe in Avengers: Endgame after finding his happily ever after and passing the shield onto Anthony Mackie's Sam Wilson aka the Falcon.
The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, the second of the many limited series from Marvel Studios which will be released on Disney+, is set to have six episodes with varying run time spanning 30 to 50 minutes. However, since then, Downey Jr. continued with minor supporting roles in Spider-Man: Homecoming, then a larger role in Captain America: Civil War. The updated grittier Captain America in Avengers.
Images of what appear to be an upcoming action figure based on a character from Disney+ show The Falcon and The Winter Soldier may have revealed a significant plot detail.
However, it may turn out to be a rumor after all, as Marvel has declined to comment, while the 39-year-old actor shrugged and said, "News to me".
This leads to Sam and Bucky teaming up to fight for the same causes Captain America fought for: what is right and what is just. After all, we know that Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness will completely reshape the MCU as we know it, and part of that multiverse hopping could reasonably include a cameo from Steve Rogers. We could get a movie that picks up with Peggy, and Steve lives after that heartbreaking dance in Endgame.
