Chris Evans recently confirmed that he'd wrapped shooting on Avengers 4 and when he said on Twitter that "Playing this role over the last 8 years has been an honor" before thanking fans for the memories, pretty much everyone assumed that he was retiring. However, during a recent appearance at ACE Comic-Con in Chicago, the actor made it clear that fans shouldn't take his remarks too literally.
"I should clarify that I know I did Tweet something that made a lot of people think that it was in some way a spoiler," he said, alluding to theories that Captain America will die in Avengers 4.
"I should clarify that regardless of how Avengers 4 ends, I would have tweeted the exact same thing," Evans said, explaining that it wasn't necessarily goodbye. "The last day of filming was a very emotional day and it was the culmination of almost 10 years of filming and 22 movies, this unbelievable tapestry. You feel a lot more emotions than I think even I thought I'd feel."
"And I felt it was appropriate to share the gratitude. I know it had a ripple effect but I am neither confirming or denying anything."In other words, Evans doesn't want us to go into Avengers 4 thinking that Steve Rogers will definitely die because that Tweet wasn't necessarily him saying he won't play the character again.
