This is undoubtedly one of those news that we did not expect in 2021 and that makes any Marvel fan happy on Thursday afternoon: according to devil sources from a well-known American media, Chris Evans, our beloved Captain America , would be dusting off his suit to return to give life to the superhero in the marvelita universe. What you are reading.
Captain America, an essential of the Saga of Infinity
Not long ago we remembered here the mythical closing of the Infinity Saga of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and how his farewell had also involved saying goodbye to some great characters of the family. Among them was, of course, Steve Rogers , aka Captain America, played by actor Chris Evans, who has several tapes on his resume with the superhero as the main character ( Captain America: the first Avenger or Captain America: Winter Soldier ) as well as others in which he has always participated quite notably and as part of the main cast.
Although the bad luck of Iron Man or Black Widow did not run – save to say that this at least does have one last film as a protagonist yet to be released – Rogers clearly said goodbye to the fans in Avengers: Endgame , where he decided to stay in the past to finally live his love story with Peggy Carter, but not before giving the witness of his mythical shield to an overwhelmed Falcon. This closed an important stage for the figure of this great hero as we ended the participation of Chris Evans in the next phases of the franchise.
What has been our surprise therefore when we learn of the latest rumor that has just shaken Hollywood: one that places the actor back in negotiations with Marvel Studios to don his imposing suit. You weren’t expecting this one, huh?
Chris Evans, in negotiations?
The exclusive comes from the popular American website Deadline, famous for its important leaks related to the world of entertainment. The publication indicates that a solvency source has provided him exclusively with information about Evans’ possible return as Captain America in the UCM. It seems that the deal would not yet be closed between the actor and the firm, but the negotiations are advanced enough to rely on an upcoming handshake .
If the deal was closed, Chris would repeat playing Steve Rogers in “at least one Marvel tape with the door open to a second title.” This does not necessarily mean that he will star in them, watch out for that. According to the same source, he will most likely appear in a joint film in the same way that Robert Downey Jr. did after his last lead film ( Iron Man 3 ), appearing in titles such as Captain America: Civil War and Spider- Man: Homecoming .
Even with this, it is not ruled out, although perhaps it is less likely, that the actor appears in a TV series taking into account the significant investment that is being made in Disney + with this new format that will also be part of the Marvel framework.
