Avengers: Doomsday Will Be ‘Brutal’ for Steve Rogers, Chris Evans Says, as Fans Fear for the Fate of His Child

Chris Evans has revealed that the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday will be “brutal” for his character Steve Rogers, marking the actor’s return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe for the first time in eight years. The film will reunite Evans with directors Anthony and Joe Russo, who previously helmed four MCU projects featuring the character including Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Civil War, and both Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame.

Evans suggested that Rogers’ seemingly happy conclusion in Endgame—where he traveled back in time to reunite with Peggy Carter—may be undone in the new film. According to Evans, the Russos are known for subjecting Rogers to challenging situations, and fans have expressed concern about his storyline and the potential fate of his child in Doomsday.
