Chris
Evans
recently
made
headlines
about
possibly
returning
as
Captain
America
for
the
fourth
instalment.
However,
the
actor
took
this
Twitter
account
and
set
the
record
straight
that
he
will
not
be
returning
to
MCU
and
Sam
Wilson
AKA
Anthony
Mackie
will
be
seen
as
the
leading
star
in
the
fourth
Captain
America
solo
film.
A
Hollywood
Reporter
article
speculated
whether
Evans’
Steve
Rogers
or
Mackie’s
Sam
Wilson
would
be
seen
in
Captain
America
4.
Evans
replied
to
the
THR
tweet
confirming
Mackie’s
role
in
the
movie
and
wrote,
“Sam
Wilson
is
Captain
America.”
This
is
not
the
first
time
Evans
opened
up
about
not
returning
as
the
MCU
superhero.
During
the
promotion
of
Lightyear
Evans
told
Yahoo
News
that
Mackie
is
exactly
the
right
man
for
the
Captain
America
role.
He
said,
“There’s
no
one
better
to
do
it.
I
mean,
he
honestly
does
it
justice,” Evans
told
the
outlet
at
the
time.
“I’m
so
proud
of
him.
I
can’t
wait
to
see
what
they
do
in
the
future
with
it.
But
if
there’s
any
tear
shed
[about
the
role],
it’s
just
for
the
sweet
memories
I
had.”
The
Captain
America
shield
was
handed
down
by
Steve
Rogers
to
Falcon
himself
at
the
end
of
Avengers
Endgame.
In
the
following
year
with
Disney+
series,
Falcon
and
the
Winter
Soldier,
Mackie’s
character
also
accepted
the
title
of
Captain
America
after
some
tussle
with
the
MCU
US
government.
Evans
who
played
Captain
America
for
eight
years
first
appeared
in
Captain
America:
The
First
Avenger
in
2011.
