Chris Evans will return in Avengers: Doomsday — at least according to a reliable report — but in what role? He’s previously played Captain America, but will he reprise his role?
Not only will Robert Downey Jr. return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe in Avengers: Doomsday — specifically, as Dr. Doom (or Doctor Doom, if you prefer) — but another major actor from the franchise will also be back. At least according to The Wrap, which reports that Chris Evans — who played Captain America for several films — is back in the mix.
We have no official confirmation of the matter, but the source is credible.
Who will Chris Evans play? (SPOILER)
Of course, it remains to be seen who the character played by Chris evans is. For years he was Captain America , but at the end of Avengers: Endgame the hero travels in time and decides to make a life in the past. We see him again as an old man and he tells us clearly that we should not expect to find out what happened in detail in this alternate life of his.
The role of Captain America has also already been taken by his friend, Sam Wilson (played by Anthony Mackie), so it seems unlikely that they will bring back Evans with the aim of putting him back in the role of that character, certainly not permanently.
Let’s remember that Evans has actually already returned to the MCU in Deadpool & Wolverine . Specifically in the role of the Human Torch from Fox’s Fantastic Four, which he played in the past. However, the Human Torch only lasts a few moments in the film, as he is eliminated by Cassandra Nova.
But since the Marvel universe revolves around multiverses and Downey Jr. Will be returning as a completely new character . It’s not impossible that Evans will play someone who hasn’t been seen on screen yet. We’ll just have to wait and find out.
Finally, we would like to point out that several of the characters just mentioned are present in Marvel Rivals : are you already playing it?https://youtu.be/ADTO6XMJbkI?si=pe2rolLrSteR8xIH
