Chris Evans confirms that Steve Rogers will return in Avengers: Secret Wars, but "can't say" how much he's in it
Production begins in "a couple months"
Chris Evans says Steve Rogers will indeed appear in Avengers: Secret Wars, which starts filming very soon.
"I start work on the next one in a couple months, so I'm in the next one," Evans said in an interview with user ComicConMomsi (via ComicBook). "I can't tell you how much I'm in the next one, but I'm in it.”
The movie takes its name from the comic book arc that puts Peter Parker in his infamous black Spidey suit after an alien symbiote comes to Earth (which we also saw in Sam Raimi's Spider-Man 3). The symbiote fails to attach itself to Peter, however, and subsequently chooses Eddie Brock. The story is told over the course of 12 issues and centers on a villain called The Beyonder who sends the Avengers to a planet known as Battleworld and traps them in a seemingly eternal battle with other villains (and it's worth noting that Doctor Doom is indeed one of these villains).
Despite getting a pretty definitive ending in Avengers: Endgame, Steve Rogers has returned to the MCU, though we're still not quite sure how. The first teaser showed Rogers living in the past and cradling a baby he presumably had with Peggy Rogers, as he previously declined returning to the future (and being a 109-year-old man who runs for office in DC like Bucky Barnes).
Avengers: Doomsday releases in theaters on December 18, with Avengers: Secret Wars arriving the following December in 2027. For more, check out our list of upcoming Marvel movies, or get up to speed with our Marvel timeline.
