Was Previous Steve Rogers At all times Current within the MCU? Endgame Director Offers His Definitive Reply – NewsEverything Motion pictures

Whereas Avengers: Endgame tried to resolve each plot thread that had been created over a decade of movies, followers have been nonetheless left scratching their heads over some points. One of many greatest questions was since Captain America traveled again in time to reside out his life with Peggy Carter earlier than exhibiting up once more within the current as previous Steve Rogers to present his defend to Sam Wilson, does that imply that there had at all times been two variations of the character within the MCU, the superhero, and the retired superhero who was married to Peggy? Joe Russo, who co-directed Endgame alongside his brother Anthony, had this to say about the entire conundrum.

“Cap would’ve needed to have traveled again to the principle timeline. That is one thing that sure, he would’ve been in a department actuality and would’ve traveled again to the principle timeline to present that defend to Sam. In our inside logic that we outlined within the room, that was the selection that we made based mostly on everything that occurred. He would’ve been in a department actuality after which needed to have shifted over to this. So jumped one to the opposite, proper? Then handed the defend off.”

Confused sufficient but? There may be extra. Whereas Russo seems assured that previous Steve Rogers existed in a separate timeline, and solely jumped again into ours when it was time to move on the defend to Sam Wilson, the writers of the film, Christopher McFeely and Stephen Markus, have a unique tackle the difficulty. In a earlier interview, Markus declared there are certainly two Steve Rogers current by the whole timeline of the MCU.

“That’s our principle. We aren’t specialists on time journey, however the Historical One particularly states that whenever you take an Infinity Stone out of a timeline it creates a brand new timeline. So Steve going again and simply being there wouldn’t create a brand new timeline. So I reject the ‘Steve is in an alternate actuality’ principle. I do consider that there’s merely a interval in world historical past from about ’48 to now the place there are two Steve Rogers. And anyway, for a big chunk of that one in all them is frozen in ice. So it is not like they’d be working into one another.”

Such paradoxes are why writers attempt to keep away from time-travel tales altogether. Whichever principle you select to consider, a minimum of we are able to all agree that Steve kissing Sharon Carter in Captain America: Civil Conflict has grow to be bizarre to observe now that she has been revealed to be his niece on Peggy’s facet of the household.
