Captain America Movies in Order: The Man Out of Time Watch Order

MCU actors come and go, but once they go, the majority of the fanbase wants to see them return eventually, even if it’s just for a small cameo role. Robert Downey Jr. and Chris Evans concluded their MCU journey with 2019’s Avengers: Endgame, and Scarlett Johansson concluded her’s with 2021’s Black Widow. Evans’ and Johansson’s characters already got their successors in the MCU with Anthony Mackie, who is set to play Sam Wilson/New Captain America in Captain America 4, and Florence Pugh is now a new Black Widow in the franchise.

Regardless, it would be great to see those OG actors again, and Chris Evans recently answered on that million-dollar question: Will he ever play Captain America again?

“That seems to be something people would like to see. I don’t want to disappoint anybody, but It was such a good run and I’m so happy with it … it’s so precious to me. It would have to be perfect. It would be scary to rattle something that is, again, so, so dear to me, and that role means so much to me, so to revisit it would be a tall order.” — Chris Evans for ComicBook.com

Evans debuted as Steve Rogers/Captain America in 2011’s Captain America: The First Avenger. He reprised the role in two sequels and four Avengers movies. He also had a small cameo in Thor: The Dark World and the post-credit scene of Captain Marvel. The role of Captain America is Evans’ most-known role, and after Steve finally had that dance at the end of Endgame, he was ready to give up the shield.

Disney+ series The Falcon and the Winter Soldier made Sam Wilson/Falcon a new Captain America, and Anthony Mackie is set to reprise the role in Captain America 4. Not much is known about the project, but one thing is for sure, Captain America and his shield will remain to be a vital part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

He also has a YouTube channel in his native language, and the content there is mostly reviewing popular movies and TV shows. Lukas also has an Instagram page where he once used to post fan-made posters he made, which is something he would like to continue working on, as photo and video editing are also some of his passions. Lukas is a big movie lover who is okay with watching any kind of movie. His favorite movie is Michael Curtiz's Casablanca, but he's a loyal follower of Marvel and DC movies, as well as several other blockbuster franchises he's been following for years; Star Wars, Fast & Furious, Mission: Impossible, and James Cameron's Avatar are only some of them. His favorite director is Christopher Nolan, with Quentin Tarantino and Denis Villeneuve as honorable mentions. Lukas is also a big fan of four fantasy multimedia franchises; The Wizarding World, A Song of Ice and Fire, The Witcher, and The Lord of the Rings. He calls them "the four rulers of the fantasy genre." He loves to write about anything spawned from those franchises (books, games, movies...), as well as anything branded with the Marvel or DC logo. Video games and their adaptations are also something he follows faithfully since he's a big fan of story-driven single-player games like Assassin's Creed, The Last of Us, Uncharted, etc. His favorite video game ever is Red Dead Redemption 2.
