‘Sam Wilson is Captain America’

Replying to a thread shared by The Hollywood Reporter, Chris Evans decided to settle the case once and all. “Sam Wilson is Captain America” reminded Evans suggesting he might not come back to the gigantic superhero role. The Twitter thread spoke about how it was unclear if Chris Evans would reprise his role as the first Captain America.
 
Chris Evans starred as Captain America since the first Marvel movie about the superhero was released in 2011. Speaking of the new installment, ‘Captain America 4’ will be helmed by The Cloverfield Paradox's Julius Onah. The highly-anticipated movie will see Anthony Mackie returning as Sam Wilson- the new Captain America.

‘Steve Rogers is and will always be Captain America’

Reacting to Chris Evans’ remarks, one fan tweeted, “I see what you’re saying, Chris; but Sam Wilson, as awesome as he is, cannot replace Steve Rogers. He can only succeed him. No one can fill Steve’s shoes. And no one can replace YOU as Steve Rogers.” Another chimed in, “I'm Steve Rogers fan till the end.. but Steve has passed the shield to Sam! As much as we miss Steve Rogers as Cap, it's not going to change the fact that Sam Wilson is Captain America now!”

 The next one tweeted, “No. Sam Wilson is Falcon. He doesn’t have the super soldier serum and Captain America was literally created as a mascot by the government by MCU lore. The only reason the name has any meaning is because Steve Rogers went rogue and fought back against the government that made him.”  Whereas, another added, “Sam Wilson is our Falcon. To me, YOU are our Captain America.” One concluded, “Sam Wilson is Falcon with a shield. Steve Rogers is and will always be Captain America.”
