Chris Evans and Hayley Atwell Returning to MCU for 'Avengers: Doomsday'

The upcoming Avengers film will reunite the former Captain America and Agent Carter, with Robert Downey Jr. also cast as Doctor Doom.

Chris Evans and Hayley Atwell are confirmed to return in 'Avengers: Doomsday,' reprising their roles as Steve Rogers and Peggy Carter, respectively.
Robert Downey Jr. will appear as the film's primary antagonist, Doctor Doom, marking a significant shift from his previous role as Iron Man.
The film, directed by Anthony and Joe Russo, is part of Marvel's Multiverse Saga and will explore alternate versions of characters through the multiverse concept.
Evans is speculated to play Nomad, an alternate identity of Steve Rogers, rather than returning as Captain America, preserving Sam Wilson's role as the current Captain America.
The reunion of original MCU stars is seen as a strategic move by Marvel following mixed reception to recent projects, with 'Avengers: Doomsday' set for release on May 1, 2026.
