The unexpected Chris Evans cameo in Deadpool & Wolverine as Human Torch has got some fans wondering what impact this event will have!
Chris Evans makes a shocking return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but not as Captain America! He returns as Johnny Storm, in Deadpool & Wolverine. A rather surprising development since he seems to die thanks to Deadpool. Deadpool & Wolverine easter eggs are not meant for humor, as this is one twist that has lasting implications!
The loss of Human Torch, especially with the revelation that he was studying the multiverse with Reed Richards (played by Ioan Gruffud), could potentially fuel the events that bring about the Future Foundation. This is an important group in Marvel Comics who bring together some of the brightest minds of the Fantastic Four universe.
Marvel's already stated a big role for the MCU Fantastic Four, and given their introduction in "The Fantastic Four: First Steps" will introduce this group from a different universe. This might also be an opportunity for the return of the 2005 Fantastic Four to the MCU.
This new MCU story could have far-reaching implications. A key factor to consider is the Future Foundation as part of this group will try to explore how to reach the Void! Remember this was mentioned by Johnny before his death, confirming Reed Richards' understanding of the Multiverse.
That is a question that is on everyone's mind! While Johnny Storm death impact could shake up the Marvel Cinematic Universe, this is a story full of surprising twists! Perhaps the introduction of a "Council of Reeds" (based on "Council of Kangs") could introduce alternate versions of the Fantastic Four variants, allowing Chris Evans's Human Torch to make a comeback!
Marvel Studios is busy. There are plans for both "Avengers: Doomsday" and "Avengers: Secret Wars," all taking place during "Phase 6 of the MCU." These two films could bring many multiversal heroes together, with a strong possibility that the Fantastic Four, the Future Foundation, and even Chris Evans as the Human Torch, make big appearances!
