Nobody cared about any of the MCU phase 1 heroes other than the hulk before the MCU. That was kind of the point they were at, they'd sold off the film rights to everyone actually worth something (Spiderman, X-Men, hulk) in order to keep afloat, and were working with the dregs. It's insane it worked as well as it did despite that.

They might have known who they were, but I don't know if they neccessarily cared. Captain America could have easily been a joke character that nobody took seriously, see;

And yet they were able to pull off a resonant scene above.

True.

Plus I just remembered they're gonna have all the X-Men to use too.

He's dead until he is needed again.

He's probably free loading off another couch somewhere. Maybe a homeless shelter. He basically survived off Tony's payroll. Dude hasn't had a paying job in over 80 years.

From a narrative standpoint, I cant see them ever bringing back Chris in a way that wont ultimately cheapen his character arc in the films.

And that comes from someone who is still waiting for when the MCU pulls the trigger on bringing back the Red Skull in a cloned Roger's body.

I hope so

Chris Evans Denies He's Returning to Captain America Role

Chris Evans seemingly addressed reports he's in talks to return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Captain America on Thursday, January 14 — details

www.usmagazine.com

"Oh you got me! I guess I've got to go against my NDA now and put a multi hundred million dollar marketing plan in jeopardy!"

It's deadline, so it's probably true. But probably we won't see him for awhile

Put enough 0s on the check, and he will gladly eat crow and come back. not sure if Marvel wants to pay him that much, of course, but no actor is gonna say no if you pay them enough.

he going to want a % cut similar to rdj

No idea, was weird there was no update on him in FaTWS. Should've had a cameo even if it was for 30 seconds.

I don't think he needed a cameo. But, the way the talked about him like he was dead and gone was weird. As far as we know, he is just an old man out in the world.

I see what you're saying here but have you ever heard of a little thing called "a shit load of money?"

Bufbaf · May 28, 2022

They're having him on ice for a surprise reveal as just Steve Rogers after Falcon is finally getting his big screen spot as Cappy A. I have no doubt though you'll see him again in the costume after that at some point.

Dead and on display at the Captain America Museum.

I don't disagree.

Never say never. Things can and do change. Look at Natalie Portman or Gwyneth Paltrow. They were pretty much done with the franchise after their contracts ended, but Gwyneth came back later on in Homecoming and Natalie has a leading role in Love and Thunder.

They put Steve Rogers in a limbo so if Chris decides later on that he wants to do cameos or come back in a big role, they have the means to do it.

In 10-15 years when they do the Incursion storyline and one of the Earths threatening to destroy the MCU Earth is populated by old versions of the original six Avengers played by the original actors, he'll come back.

He's very clearly on the moon

He's supposed to be dead or at least basically there, lol. What cameo did you want, a short of his decaying corpse?

Idk Steve at home watching the coverage of what happened and seeing Sam's speech in the end. Or just a mention that he's enjoying retirement or something.

Why is he supposed to be dead, I assume he still has the serum running through him. He could easily be like Isaiah Bradley and just have old man strength.

Marvel has now made a universe where nobody is ever dead and nothing really matters, so it's pretty much a matter of time and money until everyone comes back.

I mean, that's comics baybee

What's this moon joke about

Tahnit · May 28, 2022

I thought that F.A.W.S. pretty much confirmed he was dead….

Not a joke, it's canon

"I thought Captain America was on the moon"

Spoilers... Obviously.

He's in the White House.

Kinketsu · May 28, 2022

He isnt dead or on the moon, he is just chilling somewhere I imagine until 2030 when they will trot him out for Secret Wars to have a "Flash enters the speed force"-level once in a generation etched in the stone tablet canon of cinema moment, chiseled over the top of the name of Sergei Eisenstein in the hallowed halls of Kino

He's dancing with Peggy. All day, every day.

I mean, who wouldn't? If I had a wife as beautiful as Hayley Atwell, I would say no to fighting another Thanos level threat and just stay home. But that's just me.

But wait, wouldn't Steve get to meet her niece someday? Oh boy. Captain America and the Weird Kiss, the last Disney+ show of Phase 4.

Netherscourge · May 28, 2022

He's recruiting for the Avengers Bingo Club.

Steve Rogers doesn't have to be Chris Evans. Recasting happens.

Frozen like Winter Soldier used to be on a secret facility somewhere on the moon with instruction to defrost him when needed
