The average life expectancy in the United States is 78.69 years. The oldest person ever recorded was Jiroemon Kimura from Japan who died at 116 years old. But how old was Steve Rogers in Avengers: Endgame?
Rogers, played by Chris Evans, is first seen back in 1944 during the events of Captain America: The First Avenger. In the last movie Avengers: Endgame he travels back in time and shows up again as an old man. It’s revealed that he lived all that time till 2019. How old is Captain America in Endgame?
There have been conflicting reports of how old Steve Rogers aka Captain America is as an old man. Jen Underdahl, the visual effects producer of Endgame, spoke to Wired and said they had to produce makeup that would make Evans look like “he had aged 106 years”.
Finally, after the release of the screenplay it’s finally been settled. Disney recently released the screenplay for the latest Avengers film as part of their Oscar bid for a “Best Adapted Screenplay” nomination.
On page 144 it reads “The man turns and we now see: STEVE ROGERS, age 112”. That’s really old. He seems pretty spry for a guy pushing 100. But one of the affects of the Super-Soldier vita-ray treatment is longevity. He could live for another forty years and still throw the shield.
Rogers is 35 years old in 2023, when Avengers: Endgame takes place. Then he goes back in time to 1944 meaning he spent 77 years in hiding from the team.
Peggy was born in 1921 and lived till 2016 meaning she died at 95 years old. A good life and a lot of years with her true love Steve.
