Despite previous reports that Hayley Atwell would not be appearing in the upcoming CAPTAIN AMERICA sequel, that's no longer the case.

In an interview with Collider, Atwell's CAPTAIN AMERICA co-star Stanley Tucci confirmed she would be back for CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE WINTER SOLIDER for a brief cameo.

When asked if he would be returning for the second outing, he replied: "No, they haven't, unfortunately. I'm really sad. I know that Hayley is going back to do a flashback scene, but I have not been asked."

As of now, Atwell herself has not confirmed the news.

For the full report, head on over to Collider.

Chris Evans will return for the sequel as Steve Rogers, aka Captain America. In addition, AVENGERS co-stars Samuel L. Jackson, Scarlett Johansson, and Cobie Smulders are set to appear. Anthony Mackie and Frank Grillo have also signed on.

CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE WINTER SOLDIER, is set for an April 4, 2014 theatrical release.

The British actress is known for her stage work in A View from the Bridge. Her first feature film role was in Woody Allen's 2007 film Cassandra's Dream, in which she took the part of a stage actress opposite Ewan McGregor and Colin Farrell. In 2008, she appeared in the film The Duchess as Bess Foster and the film Brideshead Revisited as Lady Julia Flyte, earning praise and nominations from the British Independent Film Awards and the London Film Critics' Circle Awards.

In January 2009, Atwell made her West End debut in Lindsay Posner's revival of A View from the Bridge at the Duke of York's Theatre which earned her a Laurence Olivier Award nomination.

Atwell appeared as "415" in AMC Television's November 2009 miniseries, The Prisoner, a remake of the 1967-68 series by the same name. She also appeared in The Pillars of the Earth.
