Chris Evans Reportedly Returning to MCU for AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY

As a seasoned gamer who’s spent countless hours navigating the labyrinth of Marvel Cinematic Universe rumors and speculations, I must say, the news about Chris Evans returning to the MCU for “Avengers: Doomsday” is both exciting and perplexing.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) machine consistently keeps the momentum going for upcoming projects, sometimes even planning three projects ahead. This approach has been a constant since day one, which means advance spoilers and teases about these films have essentially become standard. Consequently, journalists often learn details of these movies well before the creators are ready to reveal them. In fact, it seems we know more about the 2026 movie than the one slated for release next summer! However, as reported by The Wrap, Chris Evans is set to rejoin the MCU in the future film titled Avengers: Doomsday.

It’s not too far-fetched to speculate that Evans, having enjoyed stretching his acting chops in projects like Deadpool and Wolverine, might reprise his role as Captain America in future Marvel films, despite retiring the iconic character Steve Rogers. In fact, Robert Downey Jr. is set to return as Doctor Doom in Avengers: Doomsday, but it could have been exciting not to know that 18 months ahead of time.

It’s been confirmed that Evans will reappear in an unspecified role for the upcoming fifth Avengers film, scheduled for release on May 1, 2026. Will he return as the aged Steve Rogers, as depicted at the end of Avengers: Endgame? Could he be a different Steve Rogers from another universe? Or might he portray a completely new character, such as Doctor Bong or something else entirely? Frankly, it’s all up in the air.

We’ve delved deep into potential plotlines for Joe and Anthony Russo’s “Avengers: Doomsday” and “Avengers: Secret Wars,” as there’s a wealth of information to uncover regarding these films. However, it’s quite astonishing that we don’t have much information about “The Fantastic Four: First Steps,” given its release in July. Considering the uncertainty surrounding Chris Evans’ involvement, it’s anyone’s guess at this point!
