Original Steve Rogers to die in Doomsday?

Kind of extending from my post about his age.
Since they haven’t announced his death in anything yet, I could see them having this version of Steve die and giving him a big cinematic funeral before the reveal of Captain Hydra. It would be a good way to build drama for the reveal since it’s almost obviously happening at this point.

Considering the world believes Steve died years ago after Endgame (or is living on the moon), it’d be weird to have a big funeral for him.

Oh do they I didn’t realise that. How do they think he died?

They talked about him like he might be dead in falcon in winter solider but still left it a bit ambiguous. Hes not likely to come back(at least not for much) because Chris Evans said he is retired from the role and has moved on in life from MCU.

A note of definite finality would make sense, whether the "Captain Hydra" theory happens or not.

No, he survives Doomsday and SW then after all of it he returns to give Sam the shield at the end of EG.

"No, I dont think he will..."

He’s effectively dead. Narratively, what’s the point of having him come back? Endgame was his farewell film.

Well he’s very likely going to come back as Captain Hydra, which is a very interesting narrative. And for Old Man Steve i’m saying don’t even show him just a 1minute military style funeral to say definitely he’s dead, and just to reinforce the point before revealing him young again, but evil now. Apparently everyone in universe thinks he’s dead anyway so f knows.

Chris Evans doesnt want to come back

I doubt both of those things.

First, Old Man Steve doesn't make any sense for Doomsday or Secret War, he'd be completely useless on either of those battlefields at that age. Having a variant die would be equally pointless and unimpactful, some Steve dying wouldn't matter to anyone because THE Steve is still alive. No one will care about a funeral for A Steve, only if it's a funeral for THE Steve.

Second, I really doubt they'd go with Captain Hydra. That'd drag them \*deep\* into the culture war with their "Absolutely cannot fail or everyone's losing their job" movie.

Iger is also strongly opposing and blocking anything that pulls Disney into current political arenas, which this would. Iger had "Queer Coding" removed from Elio, had Brave New World cut a bunch of stuff for political reasons, cut a climate crisis plot out of Hoppers, and is reported to be fighting with Feige insisting X-Men avoid the discrimination topic. With all of that, I highly doubt he'd allow "Steve's a Nazi" to go to screen.
