Although Chris has stepped away from his role as Steve Rogers, aka Captain America, which shot him to the top tier of stardom, Marvel fans will still see him and Black Widow star Scarlett Johansson in an upcoming movie.
The pair have reportedly signed up for Apple’s upcoming adventure movie, Ghosted.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the flick is being described as a ‘high-concept romantic action-adventure in the vein of Romancing the Stone’, which starred Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner.
