Avengers: Doomsday is set to be one of Marvel Studios' biggest-ever movies when it releases in 2026, and fans' expectations are certainly high. Any time the Avengers tag is slapped onto a film, audiences expect the biggest names possible, and there have been plenty attached to Avengers: Doomsday so far.

Doomsday? Well… according to Captain America himself he isn't. Though The Hollywood Reporter confirmed in December that Evans would be dipping back into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the actor is now denying those reports.

“That’s not true, though,” Evans said when asked about the rumours. “This always happens. I mean, it happens every couple years—ever since Endgame. I’ve just stopped responding to it. Yeah, no—happily retired!”
