Marvel Studios<\/a>\u2018 Avengers: Doomsday<\/strong><\/a> is set to feature the long-awaited returns of several fan-favorite characters, including Chris Evans<\/a>\u2018 Steve Rogers<\/strong> and Hayley Atwell<\/a>\u2018s Peggy Carter<\/strong>. While their involvement remains unconfirmed by Marvel, a new rumor<\/strong> has revealed how Evans and Atwell will factor into the crossover movie\u2019s story.<\/p>\n

What is the latest update on Chris Evans and Hayley Atwell\u2019s MCU return?<\/h2>\n

In trusted scrooper Alex Perez\u2019s latest Q&A for The Cosmic Circus, he revealed that Evans\u2019 Steve Rogers and Atwell\u2019s Peggy Carter will be \u201cforced out of retirement\u201d to help aid the Avengers, X-Men, and Fantastic Four in their \u201cend of the world\u201d fight against Robert Downey Jr.\u2019s Doctor Doom, noting that \u201ca hero\u2019s job is never done.\u201d<\/p>\n

Both Evans and Atwell were reported to have joined the cast of Avengers: Doomsday in December 2024. However, neither actor was part of Marvel Studios\u2019 viral casting announcement live stream<\/a> for Doomsday back in March, which confirmed the first 27 actors that will appear in the crossover movie. This list included Marvel Cinematic Universe<\/a> veterans like Chris Hemsworth, Anthony Mackie, Sebastian Stan, Letitia Wright, Paul Rudd, and Wyatt Russell, as well as relative newcomers like Vanessa Kirby, Tenoch Huerta Mej\u00eda, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Simu Liu, and Lewis Pullman.<\/p>\n

The live stream also revealed that Doomsday would feature six actors from 20th Century Fox\u2019s X-Men franchise \u2014 Kelsey Grammer, Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, Alan Cumming, Rebecca Romijn, and James Marsden \u2014 as well as Channing Tatum, who portrayed X-Men mutant Gambit in 2024\u2019s Deadpool & Wolverine.<\/p>\n

At the time of writing, it remains to be seen which versions of Evans\u2019 Steve Rogers and Atwell\u2019s Peggy Carter will appear in Doomsday. Evans\u2019 last appearance as Steve Rogers was in 2019\u2019s Avengers: Endgame, which ended with the character going back in time to live out his life with Peggy, resulting in present-day Steve becoming much older, yet still spry. As for Atwell, she\u2019s portrayed variants of Peggy, in both live-action and animation, who have taken the Super Soldier Serum and become the superhero Captain Carter, most recently in the third and final season of What If\u2026?<\/p>\n

The Russo Brothers are back in the director\u2019s chairs for Avengers: Doomsday, which is currently scheduled to hit theaters on December 18, 2026, as part of Phase 6 of the MCU.<\/p>\n
