Although it’s only been a few years since Evans last appeared in the MCU and hung up Cap’s shield, fans are hungry for more Evans and Steve Rogers in the MCU.
Given how his story ended, it’s unlikely we’ll see Evans back in action in any current-era MCU movies, but a prequel project such as a Disney Plus series would be an incredible way to bring back the character for one last time. adventure.
A Disney Plus series telling the story of Steve’s time travel to bring the Infinity Stones back to their rightful timeline would be an amazing way to give fans one last chance to see Evans dress up as Cap once again. Plus, think of all the memorable moments and funny cameos the show could provide as Steve travels back in time turning over the stones before finally returning to Peggy and starting their life together!

There have been conflicting reports, however, as last year Deadline reported that Evans was in the process of closing a deal to return for “at least one Marvel property, with the door open for a second movie.” Reports at the time suggested the return would not be for a new Captain America movie, but rather in a capacity similar to Robert Downey Jr.’s role in Spider-Man: Homecoming.
Fast forward to today and Evans’ return to the MCU has yet to happen, but Marvel has taught us to never say never. Who knows, maybe he’ll even surprise us and follow this joke back to the MCU via the Fantastic Four project.
