Excitement and speculation are running high as rumors swirl about Chris Evans’ potential return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), leaving fans eagerly wondering whether the beloved actor will reprise his role as Captain America in the upcoming film.
After the announcement of the star-studded cast for the new movie, some major surprises left fans in shock—particularly the absence of Evans and Tom Holland. However, according to The Hollywood Reporter, there’s still hope for Evans’ return, as sources reveal he is likely to appear in at least one of the two films in the saga.
Although Evans’ name was missing from the initial cast list for Doomsday, earlier reports had hinted at his involvement. This has fueled speculation that Marvel Studios is keeping some surprise appearances under wraps, a move the studio is known for ahead of major film releases. Marvel has a history of withholding key information until later stages of the promotional campaign.

Some fans are holding on to the possibility that, even if Evans doesn’t appear in Doomsday, his character may make a return in the following film, Avengers: Secret Wars. As the studio teases additional cast members to be revealed soon, many believe that several characters missing from the current list could reappear in future MCU installments.
The buzz about Evans’ role doesn’t stop there. Many fans are speculating that the actor might return as a “Captain Hydra” variant, a twist that could tie his character to new storylines. Others are hoping for an appearance in a post-credit scene, which might bridge his character into the Fantastic Four universe.
For now, Marvel Studios has kept tight-lipped about Evans’ role, and these theories remain fan-driven, as no official confirmation has been made. Fans will have to wait for an official announcement to know for sure whether Captain America will return to the big screen. Until then, the anticipation continues to build, with Marvel lovers eagerly waiting for the next big reveal in the MCU saga.
