Chris Evans Back as Cap for Two Avengers Films

Chris Evans is poised to reprise his iconic role as Captain America in Marvel Studios' upcoming cinematic events, 'Avengers: Doomsday' and 'Avengers: Secret Wars.' This anticipated return signifies the actor's comeback to the superhero persona he embodied, most recently in the climactic 'Avengers: Endgame' released in 2019.

Confirmation of Evans' involvement emerged through teaser clips unveiled in December 2025. These snippets suggested a narrative continuation, placing his character Steve Rogers in a domestic setting shortly after the events of 'Endgame.' Speculation suggests that Steve's decision to alter the past and father a child with Peggy Carter might be a crucial element connected to the Incursions that imperil multiple realities, potentially drawing the attention of villains like Doctor Doom.

Further fueling the excitement, Evans reportedly shared in a fan-recorded clip, "I start work on the next one in a couple of months," indicating his immediate engagement with 'Avengers: Secret Wars,' which is slated for a December 17, 2027 release. This film is set to be directed by the Russo Brothers and is expected to feature a massive ensemble cast.

'Avengers: Doomsday' is scheduled for release on December 18, serving as a precursor to the grand finale, 'Avengers: Secret Wars,' which aims to conclude the current multiverse saga. The lineup for these films is rumored to include notable actors reprising their roles and introducing new faces to the expansive Marvel Cinematic Universe.
