There’s a lot of speculation – bordering on expectation, really – that the upcoming Avengers: Endgame could mark the final outing for Chris Evans’ Steve Rogers in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Evans made his MCU debut back in 2011’s Captain America: The First Avenger, and has made the role of Steve Rogers his own, delivering a host of memorable moments throughout his various appearances in the Captain America and Avengers movies – not least the elevator fight scene in Captain America: The Winter Soldier, which Evans has revealed to be his personal favourite.
“I’m partial to that fight scene in the elevator,” said Evans in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter. “That was the first scene we shot in the second Captain America movie. It was my first time working with the Russos; it was the first time where it felt like Cap was kind of on his own. In the first Cap movie, you know, you really felt like everyone was holding my hand and the first Avengers movie, I just did my best to not get in the way. The second Cap movie is the one that I really kind of felt, I suppose, pressure and that first elevator fight scene came out really great in my opinion.”
