- Quick Answer: Chris Evans confirmed his return for Avengers: Secret Wars, revealing he begins filming soon, though his exact screen time and role details remain tightly under wraps.
Chris Evans recently revealed whether he will reprise the role of Steve Rogers in Avengers: Secret Wars, following his return in Doomsday.
The MCU vet is set to make his long-awaited comeback later this year in Avengers: Doomsday, where he will reprise his iconic role of Steve Rogers. While it remains unknown how his character will be brought back into the fold, a lot of fans are excited to see him back and interact with the other heroes in the MCU.
Is Chris Evans Returning as Steve Rogers in Avengers: Secret Wars?
In a video posted recently by @comicconmomsi on Instagram, Evans confirmed that he will be returning in Avengers: Secret Wars. He revealed the news through a wedding anniversary greeting for a fan named Jessica.
"I can tell you that I will start work on the next one in a couple of months. I can’t tell you how much I’m in the next one, but I’m in it," he said in the video.
While this is an exciting reveal from Evans, it's also not surprising to hear him return in Secret Wars, since it is seen as a continuation of Doomsday and a culmination of the Multiverse Saga storyline.
The teaser released last December revealed that Steve Rogers has hung up his shield for the upcoming MCU film. In a poignant moment, he is shown packing away the Captain America suit last worn in Endgame. He is also now a father, featuring a heartwarming shot of him lovingly cradling his and Peggy Carter's new baby.
It's hard to imagine Evans not appearing in Secret Wars after returning in Doomsday, since fans are really excited to see how Steve Rogers will return in the multiversal event movies, and there are expectations that Secret Wars will have a bigger scope in terms of cameos and returning characters.
For now, let's wait for more updates regarding what to expect in Secret Wars in the coming months, as they are preparing to begin production this year, and it would be curious to see if Marvel Studios will do another casting announcement.
