Some of the gif responses are priceless 😂😂😂good work, everyone
WHAT THIS MEANS
Evans’ return to the MCU is some of the most unexpected news the MCU fandom has seen in a while, which the actor clearly pokes fun at with both of his posts on social media. This likely isn’t a sign that the reports are untrue, however, especially considering the original source is Deadline, a highly reliable trade in the entertainment industry.
Chris Evans has repeatedly mentioned that he would only return to the MCU
if the story was right for Captain America
. With everything coming down the pipeline in Phase 4 and beyond, there are surely plenty of opportunities for Steve Rogers to make his presence felt alongside the MCU’s future heroes.

It also makes sense that the reports compared his role going forward to
Robert Downey, Jr.’s in
Spider-Man: Homecoming
, in which the Iron Man star only had about 10 minutes of screentime. No specifics have been revealed in terms of projects, but it will be exciting to find out more as this story develops.
