As was the case with the third Iron Man movie, it seems like the story of Steve Rogers and Captain America may wrap up in its third installment. But could that mean Chris Evans is moving on from the role?

Speaking with MTV on Wednesday, Captain America 3 directors Anthony and Joe Russo dished on the conclusion of Steve Rogers' story and what that means for Chris Evans.

"It is a hard question to answer because it gets to the specific of where the narratives are going. I will say this: yes, for satisfying storytelling, you want a beginning, middle and end," Anthony said. "That's the natural arc that we all thrive off of in narrative."

Anthony added that what makes the Marvel Cinematic Universe so unique is the way characters can begin and end stories but still fit into the grand scheme.

"The great thing about the Marvel universe, just like the publishing, it's a very vast, inter-connected universe, where characters will have their rise and fall, so to speak, and hand off to other characters," Anthony said.

"As the cinematic universe moves forward, you may start to see the cinematic universe adopt that same pattern, as the publishing has, where there's closure with some characters and new beginnings with other characters. How those hand-offs are made is always part of the fun."

MTV also added that the way that filmmakers working with Marvel can achieve (narrative end) without running franchises into the ground is to borrow a mentality from the publishing arm of the superhero house. Certain characters will get emotional and narrative closure, while others will find their worlds upended, possibly leading to more central roles.

Captain America 3 is set to open in theaters on May 6, 2016.
