Via his personal twitter account, Chris Evans has officially said goodbye to his role as the beloved super hero from the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Chris Evans first began his role as the patriotic phenomenon back in 2011 in Marvel’s “Captain America: The First Avenger.” This began a series of Captain America roles, which spanned over the past 8 years through several films centered within the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Some of these famous films include all of “The Avenger” films up until 4, “Captain America: The Winter Soldier,” “Ant-Man,” “Captain America: Civil War,” and “Spider-Man: Homecoming.”
Officially wrapped on Avengers 4. It was an emotional day to say the least. Playing this role over the last 8 years has been an honor. To everyone in front of the camera, behind the camera, and in the audience, thank you for the memories! Eternally grateful.
