Chris Evans' avowal of no further Avengers involvement - as expected, given the circumstances.
In the world of Marvel, secrets and surprises are highly valued, and actors like Chris Evans cannot reveal potential rumors about their roles due to the fear of ruining these surprises for fans. This has been the case with Evans' iconic role as Captain America, a character he seemingly closed his career playing with Avengers: Endgame, passing the shield to Anthony Mackie's Sam Wilson.
However, soon after Evans' departure, rumors began swirling about his potential return in some capacity. Fans both want to know all the biggest secrets about upcoming projects and complain if those secrets come out before they enter a theater. The excitement surrounding Evans' possible comeback has been growing, particularly in recent weeks, along with talk of Robert Downey Jr. and Scarlett Johansson returning to their Marvel roles.
Strong rumors indicate that Chris Evans is signed on to reprise Steve Rogers in a limited series about returning the Infinity Stones to their proper places in time. This project, reportedly in development, presents a chance to explore the time-travel elements glossed over in Avengers: Endgame. Additionally, multiple rumors and some leaks suggest he might appear in the next Avengers film, Avengers: Doomsday, where his return would be significant to the storyline, possibly involving the consequences of his time-travel decisions.
Despite these rumors, Chris Evans himself has publicly denied that he will be suiting up again for Avengers: Doomsday, debunking some of the hype about a full-blown comeback in that exact film. The first major opportunity for Evans' return could be in Captain America: New World Order, scheduled for release on February 14, 2025. This would mark the fourth film in the Captain America franchise that Evans starred in.
On a recent episode of The View, Chris Evans said he had no idea about his potential return. Evans' response feels rehearsed, suggesting he may have been answering this question for years. He expressed that he would never say never, but he is very protective of the role of Captain America and would only consider a return if it was just right.
This isn't the first time actors have been involved in such situations. Benedict Cumberbatch, Andrew Garfield, and potentially Chris Evans have been contractually obligated to deny any rumors about their return, even if evidence supporting it exists. The first rule of playing a superhero is to deny, deny, deny any rumors about one's character.
While no official confirmed role for Evans in future Marvel films is public yet, credible rumors and insider reports favor a limited series and possible film appearance, though Evans himself has downplayed some of these claims. The upcoming releases for Marvel, Star Wars, Star Trek, the DC Universe, and Doctor Who are eagerly anticipated, with fans eager to uncover more secrets and surprises.
