Chris Hemsworth’s Thor and Mark Ruffalo’s Hulk have become the mentor figures of the MCU guiding their successors to continue their legacy. In the case of both Chris Evans and Robert Downey Jr., the requirement of their comeback appears to be finding a decent story to tell and a significant purpose to bring them back. Neither of the actors looks to be interested solely in fan service, but a good salary could change that.

Is it possible to get Chris Evans and Robert Downey Jr. back in the MCU?
Surprise visits from Downey Jr. and Evans would be a surefire method for Marvel Studios to satisfy the crowds with the conclusion of theMultiverse Saga.
In the case of Downey Jr., the most likely scenario for him to appear is inSecret Wars, when a Variant from the Multiverse crosses paths with the MCU’s heroes. Reintroducing Tony Stark from Earth-616 via resurrection or time travel would jeopardize hisAvengers: Endgamesacrifice, which neither the actor nor the studio would be willing to do.
Marvel Studios has many more alternatives when it comes to Evans. Countless Chris Evans Variants, such as an alternate Captain America, the malevolent HYDRA Supreme, or his original Human Torch, might be brought into play by the Multiverse. The geriatric Steve Rogers is still kicking around the MCU and may have some fight left in him, or at the very least some wisdom.

To summarise, while fans may not have seen the last of Robert Downey Jr. and Chris Evans in the MCU, they will never return to the franchise’s forefront. Any future appearances will most likely be in the form of a cameo or a limited role that will not be revealed until the next Avengers epic hits theatres.
Avengers: The Kang Dynastywill be released in theatres on July 13, 2025, withSecret Warsfollowing on June 05, 2025.
