Chris Evans is once again ready to assemble alongside the Avengers.
Over five years after the Captain America star relinquished his shield to Anthony Mackie’s Sam Wilson, his appearance in the latest Avengers: Doomsday trailer confirms he will reprise his Steve Rogers role in the upcoming Marvel film.
“Steve Rogers will return,” the trailer, released Dec. 23, writes in a title card. “In Avengers: Doomsday. December 18, 2026.”
In the beginning of the trailer, Steve is seen driving down a rural road on a motorcycle, before approaching a house. Flashes of Steve sporting a wedding band and cradling a baby share insight into the life he has been living since reuniting with Peggy Carter (Hayley Atwell) and deciding to remain in the mid-20th century in Avengers: Endgame.
Later, Steve is seen opening an old crate, before taking out his and admiring his Captain America suit foreshadowing what is to come in the upcoming franchise installment.
