Chris Evans has ruled the hearts of moviegoers for over two decades now. From leading romantic comedies to thrillers to becoming an iconic superhero, he has done it all. In fact, when it came to the star-studded movies, he shined out among them all, headlining the team towards some greater good. For years fans have loved him playing the righteous Captain America who always put his nation first even in the bleakest moments.

Having left that character, he now seeks to carve out an alternative path for himself in the entertainment industry. It seems the 42-year-old superstar is up for supporting roles after getting its first taste in Netflix’s Knives Out.

Chris Evans is ready to enter a new phase of his career

Chris Evans has graced the cover of GQ Magazine for the October 2023 issue. For the same, the actor sat down with the outlet to talk about his life and turning points in his career. During the conversation, he opened up about the differences he had noticed between him and his peers during his longstanding career. He referred to Robert Downey Jr. who has been the attention of Hollywood for decades and still manages to pull that charm.

The Boston native praised his costar that the man had the leading aura, which often left people stunned. According to him, the acting profession has two different sides, first the stage and then the things that are behind it. But unlike the Iron Man actor, Evans felt he does not have that kind of “magnetic” personality and has always struggled with doing stuff. So he would not try to fit in the box and would grab any opportunity that comes after his superhero era.

The Gifted star will take supporting roles just like the mystery drama Knives Out offered him in 2019. “I’m happy to be in an ensemble. I don’t need to carve out some sort of leading man niche for myself,” he said. For the unversed, he played a negative role in the movie, which was unexpectedly amazing considering he has always been the good guy for fans. In fact, in the photo shoot of this magazine, he gave major bad-guy vibes.

Captain America turns into a cool guy 

In the pictures listed on the website, Chris Evans took an entirely new avatar that fans might have not seen before. He posed for the camera, donning a knitted vest over a black t-shirt with rolled-up sleeves. In another picture, the actor gave a side pose sporting a grey vest that showed his body tattoos. To say the least, he looked sizzling as ever in this series of snaps channeling his cool guy side.

Through this interview and photoshoot, if there is one thing fans got to know about him is that this handsome man has much more to offer. He might have said goodbye to his superhero role, but there are many others waiting for him where he could showcase his versatility. Meanwhile, people who wish to watch him in a new avatar can stream his movie Pain Hustler available on the streaming giant Netflix.
