Chris Evans is returning to the Marvel Cinematic Universe as part of the cast for “Avengers: Doomsday,” the highly anticipated sequel that will also star Robert Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom, The Wrap has learned exclusively. Evans will be involved in some capacity, but the extent and exact nature of his role is unknown.

After sunsetting his Steve Rogers character in 2019’s “Avengers: Endgame,” Evans recently made a brief MCU return in this summer’s “Deadpool and Wolverine,” but as his character Johnny Storm from Fox’s “Fantastic Four” movies, not as Captain America.

The Russo Brothers, who directed both Evans and Downey Jr. in “Captain America: Civil War,” “Avengers: Infinity War” and “Avengers: Endgame,” are returning to direct “Avengers: Doomsday” and its direct sequel “Avengers: Secret Wars.”

“Avengers: Doomsday” is slated for release on May 1, 2026.

This film’s budget was already $180 million only counting RDJ and the Russos salaries. Easily $225-250m now before they even think of turning on a camera.

Sam Wilson is a fine Falcon, but he's not Captain America.

Until Disney Marvel realizes they F'd up bigly, the fails will continue.

I don't know why Marvel just doesn't do an Xmen 97 type of film series and print money.

If you can't sell tickets by writing compelling stories, try to sell tickets by bringing back familiar faces i guess.

The seal-clapping for 2 hours of cameos in Deadpool and Wolverine showed the execs this is exactly what the general audience wants.

Evans gonna need to bulk up.

He's lost a lot of size since Endgame.

10% chance he has a line where Doctor Doom says "what do you mean you people?"

Of course he is. Nobody wanted A Brave New World. Chris Evans plays a pretty good Captain America.
