‘Civil War 2’? RDJ and Chris Evans Might Face Off Again in the MCU—But as Different Characters

As a seasoned gamer with countless hours spent navigating alternate realities and timelines across various universes, I must admit that the Multiverse Saga unfolding in the MCU has piqued my interest more than any other storyline to date. The sheer possibilities of exploring familiar characters in new and unexpected contexts is nothing short of exhilarating!


At present, the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) is journeying through the Multiverse Storyline, drawing varied responses from viewers. Some critics argue that the intricate storylines can be confusing at times, while others suggest that the concept of the Multiverse may seem to diminish the impact of consequences in the universe.

Regardless, the idea of the Multiverse and its variations offers fascinating chances to reexamine known narratives from fresh angles and with altered results, as shown by the series “What If…?“.

In the realm of the Multiverse, complexity arises due to variations—currently, there exist not one but two iterations each of Thanos, Gamora, and Loki within the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Robert Downey Jr., on the other hand, plays not only Iron Man but also Doctor Doom in this universe.

In the latest crossover between Deadpool and Wolverine, we saw Chris Evans portraying Human Torch, a character he also played as Captain America. This could pave the way for an alternate take on the Civil War storyline within the Marvel Cinematic Universe, potentially featuring Robert Downey Jr. and Chris Evans on opposite sides once more.

Following the unveiling of “Avengers: Doomsday,” there’s a significant chance that the Marvel Cinematic Universe could take on the ‘Time Runs Out’ and ‘Secret Wars’ story arcs. In ‘Time Runs Out,’ multiple realities intersect due to incursions, potentially leading to their annihilation.

On the premise that there’s not just one timeline (the Sacred Timeline), but also others like Deadpool’s Earth-10005 where the Human Torch may be deceased or lost in another realm, there’s a chance for his revival considering the characteristics of Variants.

In this rephrased version, we find that Doctor Doom assumes the abilities of the Beyonder, leading to the creation of a world known as Battleworld. This unique realm is pieced together from various dimensions. Within Battleworld, different groups such as altered versions of the Fantastic Four, Avengers, and X-Men compete for supremacy.

In this imagined situation, Doom wields absolute power over Battleworld with a rigid hand, while Chris Evans’ Torch might find himself at odds with RDJ’s Doom, scrutinizing Doom’s genuine intentions and determining whether he’s a savior or a contributor to the problems at hand. This alternate conflict setup provides a refreshing twist, rekindling the struggle in an innovative fashion.
