Fans know that there’s always something happening both onscreen and behind the scenes of their favorite sudsers. After all, new episodes air on a daily basis. A twist or turn is guaranteed to be waiting for you around every corner.

But it’s not just the plots on The Bold and the Beautiful, The Young and the Restless, Days of Our Lives and General Hospital that keep you on your toes.

There’s so much happening that it’s hard to keep up. To make things easier, we are pulling together the biggest soap opera headlines of the week.

What all went down this week? Let’s start with the happy news: A longtime couple who met on the set of a soap opera celebrated a huge anniversary. We also got news of a huge family reunion that will take place onscreen for the first time in decades.

A few other soap opera returns have been confirmed, and one actor weighed in on reprising their role in a recently announced revival!

It’s been five years since Chris Evans suited up as Captain America for what was seemingly the last time in Avengers: Endgame, but we still have a hard time picturing anyone but him bringing Steve Rogers to life in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

He’s simply so well-cast in the role that it’s like he’s playing himself! It’s been years since he last picked up the shield, but he’ll always be our Cap.

While he is now synonymous with the part, Chris initially turned it down. Who might have picked up the shield if he never agreed to lead the Avengers? We did some digging and rounded up 11 actors who were considered for the role.

Interestingly, some of them wound up acting alongside Chris in the MCU. Two of them even yielded Cap’s shield at various points.

Others joined the franchise after he left. Some even had the chance to play roles in other mega-successful franchises, and one of them later revealed that they had to apologize to Marvel after their audition! The final actor to join the list would have put a very different spin on the iconic hero.

In honor of the fifth anniversary of Endgame and the end of Chris‘ run as Cap, check out the other stars who were up for the part.

The Disney Channel has been a jumping off point for some of the biggest names in the entertainment industry, and it’s set the stars on the path to amassing impressive fortunes.

In the early aughts, the likes of Shia LaBeouf, Demi Lovato, Selena Gomez and Miley Cyrus, took over the network. They went on to experience success in other projects as they grew up.

Many of these former child stars have accumulated impressive net worths over the years, thanks to the opportunities and exposure that the Disney Channel provided.

Curious to see just how much these stars have earned? We took a stroll down memory lane and rounded up some of the most prominent names from the late ’90s and early ’00s. Based on their estimated worth, we ranked them from lowest to highest.

Amazingly, the top earner has the star in second place beat by over $600 million. They’re also getting fairly close to having a net worth topping over $1 billion.
