Avengers: Endgame
retaliator : Endgamewriters Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely are glad hearing continue to debate the nature of Captain America ’s end . By now , most looker know that after Steve Rogers returned the Infinity Stones to their true place , he decided to go back to the past and finally apportion his long - look dancing with Peggy Carter . Steve lived out a full , peaceable biography , coming back as an erstwhile gentleman in 2023 topass the Captain America shield to Sam Wilson . Just about everyone ’s in understanding this was the idealistic sendoff for Steve , but there ’s mix-up over the logistics .

Speaking withVanity FairaboutEndgame , the two were asked for their thoughts on the discussions wall Captain America ’s conclusion , which have go on for calendar month . Rather than steer out something that could clear things up , they admit they get it on seeing this aspect endlessly debated :
McFeely : Oh , its great !
Markus : Yeah , that ’s fine . Those are unsatisfied question . Those are intrigued questions . I ’m delighted at masses still jaw over this matter . You bonk , if it ’s “ That ’s stupefied and I do n’t care it and I ’m talking about it because it was dumb , ” that ’s one thing . But if it ’s , “ I honestly do n’t know , and it ’s kind of coolheaded to think about , ” that ’s dandy .
While it ’s bafflingEndgame’sown directors and writers do n’t see eye - to - centre on the matter ( for what it ’s worth , Markus and McFeelyintended Steve to be Peggy ’s unseen married man ) , the ambiguity does grant individual viewing audience to decide on their predilection and accept that account . In some regard , it ’s similar to theInceptionending ; it ’s fun to deliberate the finer item ( was Cobb stargaze or not ? ) , but that lose sight of the larger picture . Ultimately , it does n’t really count if Steve went to an alternate timeline or the prize past . It was super purgative to see him with Peggy , paying offThe First Avenger’sdevastating"I had a date"ending eight years after . That ’s the whole point of the vista . Steve finally go what he wanted and deserved .
Though Chris Evans hasn’tdefinitively exit the book on a possible MCU return , Markus and McFeely believethe histrion coming back would retroactively hurtEndgame . With that in judgement , it ’s unlikely any future task in the franchise touch on Captain America ’s ending , which is probably for the salutary . Even for Marvel ( who ’s draw off plenty of unprecedented things before ) , it ’d be a tall order to find a compelling narrative cause to bring Steve back into the sheepcote . And with the MCU continuing to expand with young characters and sub - franchises , there ’s no need to be given on Captain America like a crutch . Most viewers would probably be fine if the creatives did n’t extend to this and let Steve be at ataraxis .
