Following his survival at the end of The First Avenger, he has since gone on to become the leader of The Avengers, an outlaw following the events of Captain America: The Winter Soldier and Captain America: Civil War, and he most recently played a vital role in the defense of Earth against Thanos in Avengers: Infinity War.
All evidence currently points to Captain America actor Chris Evans hanging up his red white and blue tights at the end of Avengers 4 next year, so we will have to wait and see how Marvel will pay off the character’s long history that began when he crashed that plane into the icy waters of the Atlantic.
That moment stands out as one of the most crucial scenes in the history of the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe because Steve Rogers has handily become one of the most important figures in the entire MCU.
