Chris Evans says he will “never say never” when it comes to returning as Captain America in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
With Avengers: Endgame, a number of big characters and actors seemed to call it a day, including Chris Evans and his character Captain America. But while Evans is ‘retired’ from the roll as of now, is there a chance that he could come back?
Well, according to the man himself, he isn’t going to rule it out, even if he doesn’t think there is a good reason to at the moment. Speaking in a Variety interview, the actor said:
“Everything clicks when I get up. Recovery is not the same. You never say never. I love the character. I don’t know. … It’s not a hard no, but it’s not an eager yes either. There are other things that I’m working on right now. I think Cap had such a tricky act to stick the landing, and I think they did a really nice job letting him complete his journey. If you’re going to revisit it, it can’t be a cash grab. It can’t be just because the audience wants to be excited. What are we revealing? What are we adding to the story? A lot of things would have to come together. … It doesn’t feel, at this time, that would be a thing. … It’d be a shame to sour that. I’m very protective of it. It was such a precious time, and jumping onto the movie was a terrifying prospect to me. I said no a bunch of times, and there’s a million and one ways it could have gone wrong. It almost feels like maybe we should let this one sit.”
So while he is leaning towards being done with the character, the door is at least ajar from his point of view. Would you like to see Chris Evans return to the MCU? Let us know in the comments below and on Twitter @flickeringmyth…
