That didn’t take long! It’s time for Chris Evans to pull his shield out of the back of his closet, because he’s reportedly returning to the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
After spending nearly a decade portraying Captain America onscreen, Chris seemed to step down from the iconic role once Avengers: Endgame was released in 2019. Now, he’s preparing to don the starry suit once again to reprise the part in some capacity for a future mystery project.
On Jan. 14, Deadline reported Chris will return as Steve Rogers (aka Captain America) in at least one more film, if not two. The outlet notes it likely won’t be for another solo Captain America movie, but rather an appearance by the superhero in another Marvel flick, similar to how Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.) reappeared in Captain America: Civil War and Spider-Man: Homecoming.
It remains unclear how and when Chris will be returning, but Deadline noted his options are “unlimited.” According to Variety, details of his all-American comeback are still “vague.”
