Marvel Films: Chris Evans Talks And RDJ On Solo Flicks

Chris Evans has affirmed to Variety that the only films he plans to act in after his Marvel contract is done are films he intended to direct.

As for that eventual period when he is done playing the star spangled superhero Captain America, he tells MTV:

"Who's handing off the shield. Don't take my job from me prematurely dude. I'm sure it'll happen at some point, all good things have to come to an end. But I'm really happy playing the character."

Evans is under contract to play the Steve Rogers in Captain America 3 and a third Avengers movie.


Meantime  there has been chatter that Scarlett Johansson 's Black Widow character may get her own stand-alone movie since she first played Russian spy turned good gal 'Natasha Romanoff' in "Iron Man 2" in 2010.

Now, her co-star Robert Downey Jr.. has revealed his thoughts on the topic during a recent interview with USA Today, saying the actress deserves some time off - especially since she's now a mom to her first child:

"Doesn't Scarlett deserve a break? Look, I think that the interesting thing particularly after Guardians (of the Galaxy) with Zoe (Saldana), (or) even from the first Iron Man.where Pepper was kind of this really - to me the Iron Man franchise  would never have taken off without (Gwyneth) Paltrow. There's something about her that grounded the story. She's not your typical lady in a superhero movie, and then by Iron Man 3 she's swallowing serums and putting on suits and kicking (butt) and all that stuff. It would be kind of more appropriate for a character that already was like a Black Widow (to lead a movie). It just seems like whatever Scarlett does people want to go see it."


He adds that some of his fellow Avengers co-stars deserve their own films:

"The funny thing is honestly at this point everyone deserves a franchise. I think Jeremy Renner is - when folks see The Avengers: Age of Ultron he's just a rockstar, a badass And Ruffalo is pumped. He does great (work). I'd like to hear them talk even more seriously about a Hulk franchise, because that's been one of the toughest ones to get right. But I'm sure that my parent company is feeling expansive and and bold after the summer they've had."
