MOVIE NEWS – The actor Chris Evans who played the Star-Spangled Super Soldier in 11 films revealed what’s going on with the rumors that he would wear the Captain America costume again.

Chris Evans thinks it’s still too early for Steve Rogers to return to the big screen. The actor said goodbye to Marvel movies four years ago in Avengers: Endgame, when he passed the shield to Sam Wilson, aka Falcon. Since then, however, several rumors have surfaced that Evans has not said goodbye to the role for good.

The actor recently attended the 2023 Chicago Comic & Entertainment Expo, where he was asked if there was a chance for another Captain America movie. Evans answered honestly (via ComicBook).

“It’s a tough question, because I love that role deeply. I think there are more Steve Rogers stories to tell, sure. But at the same time, I’m very careful with it. It’s like this little shiny thing that I have that I cherish so much, and I don’t want to mess it up with anything. I was part of something that was very special for a certain period of time and in a way, it really landed well.

As much as I’m connected to that role and love telling those stories and working with those people. It doesn’t feel right right now.”

Captain America: New World Order producer Nate Moore previously talked about what makes Sam Wilson’s Cap different.

“He’s not Steve Rogers and I think that’s a good thing. Because to me, this new Cap is Rocky. He’s going to be the underdog in any situation. He’s not a super soldier. He’s not 100 years old. He doesn’t have the Avengers.

What happens with this guy who announces publicly without being supported: ‘I’m the new Captain America.’ What happens next?” – Moore asked.

“He’s a guy with wings and a shield, but he’s just a guy. So we’re going to put him through the fire and make him earn this title, and see what happens when he’s outmatched, outclassed, out-everything.”

Captain America: New World Order hits theaters on May 3, 2024. The Falcon and the Winter Soldier can be watched exclusively on the Disney+ platform.
