    He was perfectly cast as Cap. The character can veer into tight-laced boy scout very easily but Chris chose to play him with more nuance and humanity. His Cap was one of the best-acted characters in the MCU.

    It goes underappreciated how much talent it takes to play a character like Johnny Storm and have a switch up like playing Captain America and not have one role mar the perception of the other. The time gap in between movies helped but I remember at the time of him being casted as Cap there was a lot of worry and complaints that he couldn't do it because of the perception of playing a role like Johnny in technically the same comic universe.

    • @xanschneider

Him going back feels like such an out of character selfish move, Peggy moved on and had a wonderful life and family. With Steve there they either just had that dance and then stayed a part despite knowing they could now be with each other or they had to sneak around or something; they couldn’t have had a normal life together without changing the present day timeline since it would alter the chain of events that led to it.

    Chris Evans as an actor is so much underrated just because of his handsome looks.

Most importantly, he reads and the way he take upon acting, not following the money like some, is amazing.

    Wish they would’ve talked about Cellular. That’s the first movie I remember seeing Chris Evans in and probably my favorite

    Kinda sad he didn't include his act on "GIFTED" it is one of my fav character of him after captain america. His act on that movie with the child is also amazing

    10:38 lmao how did i not see Chris breaking character at this scene, the first time i saw it. I’m so glad he pointed it out, it makes the scene even funnier now.

    Chris Evans's performance in Snowpiercer was so mind-blowing, I absolutely forgot anything that he's ever done in the past. Frankly, one of the best performances in the past decade.

    I can't fathom anyone else playing the role but to hear his first priority was to uphold what fans loved about the character is so heart warming.

    He’s so well spoken, listening to him speak is always a joy.
