  • Avengers: Doomsday Star Chris Evans Says He Returned as Steve Rogers Because He Feels “very at home with the role”

    Avengers: Doomsday Star Chris Evans Says He Returned as Steve Rogers Because He Feels “very at home with the role”

    Chris Evans says returning as Steve Rogers in Avengers: Doomsday was an easy decision because of how deeply he cares about the Captain America role.

    “I feel very at home with the role,” Evans said during a panel at Fan Expo Boston. “I feel very not just comfortable, but precious. I care about the arc of all these characters, and we wouldn’t be doing it unless there was going to be a really interesting situation to put him in.”

    How Steve Rogers returns in Avengers: Doomsday

    Evans is set to appear in both Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars, with the latter scheduled to arrive next year. Steve Rogers appeared to receive a definitive ending in Avengers: Endgame, when he chose not to return to the future and instead went back into the past to build a family life with Peggy Carter.

    The first teaser for Avengers: Doomsday showed Rogers cradling the baby he and Carter share. The second trailer showed him lifting Thor’s hammer with ease, leaving the God of Thunder visibly stunned. The strongest clue about how Rogers returned to Earth-616 comes from the newest trailer, where he appears to be holding a card from Loki’s TVA.

    Evans previously teased that “interesting situation,” saying: “The Russos love beating up Steve Rogers. Their favourite thing to do is to just beat the crap out of him. To them, that’s what makes a hero, and that’s someone who gets punched so many times but still gets up.”

    Avengers: Doomsday arrives this December 18. While you wait, check out our guide to all the upcoming Marvel movies and shows for everything else the MCU has in store.
