RUMOR: AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR Will See Steve Rogers Drop The Captain America Mantle & Suit-Up As Nomad
We already knew we'd be seeing a very different Steve Rogers in Marvel's Avengers: Infinity War, but a new rumor suggests that the conflicted hero will be ditching the mantle of Captain America altogether.
A disillusioned Steve Rogers (Chris Evans) seemingly dropped the Captain America mantle along with his signature shield at the end of Civil War, but most of us assumed he'd be suiting-up as the Sentinel of Liberty again for Avengers: Infinity War.
Well, though he probably will be donning a costume again, it may not be the classic red, white 'n blue duds we're used to seeing him in.
According to MCU Exchange, Rogers will indeed utilize a superhero identity when he joins his former teammates in their battle against Thanos and his forces, but it'll be as Nomad, not Captain America. Apparently, the costume won't be exactly like the caped blue and yellow uniform from the comics, but it will pay homage to it.
Fans have actually been speculating about the possibility of Cap becoming Nomad since Civil War, so this wouldn't exactly be a major shock - that said, until we hear or see something official on the matter it should be taken with the usual pinch of salt.
What do you guys think? Would you like to see Steve Rogers as Nomad, or should be return as Captain America for Avengers: Infinity War? Sound off below.
