SPOILER: CIVIL WAR Star Chris Evans Reacts To That Massive CAPTAIN AMERICA Comic Book Twist
It seems that startling revelation from the pages of Captain America: Steve Rogers #1 left the man who plays the character in the MCU as shocked as the rest of us. Check out Chris Evans' response...
Even if you haven't read All New, All Different Captain America: Steve Rogers #1 yet, chances are curiosity got the better of you in regards to the huge twist that's set social media ablaze with backlash over the last couple of days - but just in case, massive SPOILERS ahead.
So, turns out Steve Rogers is actually a Hydra agent. Not a clone, not a LMD, and he hasn't been brainwashed - apparently Captain America has been a sleeper agent right from the off. This revelation has understandably caused quite a stir, and although it is just a stunt that might well play out with some kind of semi-reasonable explanation, fans are not happy.
Someone else that seems quite shocked at the news is Chris Evans, who plays the Sentinel of Liberty in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Is there any possibility the MCU will follow suit and have Cap reveal himself to be a villain? It seems very unlikely given everything we've seen from the character up to this point - but then again, you could say the same for his comic book counterpart.
Captain America: Steve Rogers #1 is now available, and issue #2 hits stores June 29, 2016.
