Chris Evans, as many
people know is an American Actor, and he is also a filmmaker. He was born in Boston, Massachusetts, and raised in the town of Sudbury at June 13 1981. the son of Lisa (Capuano), who worked at the Concord Youth Theater,
and G. Robert Evans III, a dentist. His uncle is congressman Mike Capuano. Chris's father is of half
German and half Welsh/English/Scottish ancestry, while Chris's mother is of
half Italian and half Irish descent. He has an older sister, Carly Evans, and two younger siblings, a
brother named Scott Evans, who is also an actor, and a
sister named Shana Evans. The family moved to suburban
Sudbury when he was 11 years-old. Bitten by the acting bug in the first grade
because his older sister, Carly, started performing, Evans followed suit and
began appearing in school plays. While at Lincoln-Sudbury Regional High School,
his drama teacher cited his performance as "Leontes" in "The Winter's
Tale" as exemplary of his skill. After more plays and regional theater, he
moved to New York and attended the Lee Strasberg Theater Institute.

On the advice of
friends, he landed an internship at a casting office and befriended a couple of
the agents he regularly communicated with - one of whom later took him on as a
client. The screen - not the stage - then became his focus; Evans soon began auditioning
for feature films and television series. Evans made one of his first
appearances on The Fugitive (2000) (CBS, 2000-2001), a remake of the 1960s series and feature
film starring Harrison Ford. In the episode "Guilt", Evans played the son of a small-town
sheriff who tries to exact revenge after Dr. Richard Kimble - incognito as a
liquor store owner - refuses to sell him and his friends alcohol. After small
roles in Cherry Falls (2000) and The Newcomers (2000) - two unknown low-budget features - Evans appeared in Boston Public (2000) (Fox, 2000-2004) as a murder suspect. He then appeared in his
first major feature, Not Another Teen
Movie (2001), a spoof on teen
comedies wherein he played a jock who makes a bet that he can turn an unpopular
and unkempt girl (Chyler Leigh) into prom queen.
After filming a couple of television pilots he was
confident would be successful - Just Married (2003) and Eastwick (2002) - he appeared in another listless teen comedy, The
Perfect Score (2004), playing an average, ho-hum student who takes part in a plot
to steal the SAT test. Hijinks naturally ensue. Then, Evans broke through to
the Big Time, grabbing the lead in the kidnapping thriller, Cellular (2004), a suspenseful B
movie with a cheesy gimmick - a random wrong number on his cell phone forces
him into a high-stakes race to save an unknown woman's life. Despite an
unassuming performance from Evans and Kim Basinger as the damsel in
distress, Cellular (2004) failed to break any box office records or please a wide
majority of critics. Evans then prepared himself for super stardom when he
signed on to play Johnny Storm in Fantastic Four (2005), 20th Century
Fox's long-awaited adaptation of the Marvel comic. Although the film was wildly
uneven and disappointing, Evans nearly stole the show with his energetic,
unfettered performance. In that year itself, Chris was noticed by critics and
made it into magazine and Internet countdowns, scoring himself a third position
of the hot body countdown from Gay.com and #18 on E! Television's 2006 101
Sexiest Celebrity Bodies.
The year 2007 also proved to be one successful year for Chris, as he had
two movies released around the world that same year, starting with the second
installment of the Marvel franchise Fantastic Four. Chris received positive
reviews for his performance. The Nanny Diaries (2007), where Evans played Harvard Hottie, showed his sensitive. The
year 2008 saw Chris Evans' part of the movie Street Kings (2008), playing the character Detective Paul Diskant. The movie is
about police officers trying to cover up their wrongdoings and audiences got to
see a serious side of Chris. In the same year, Chris also worked on the movie The Loss of a Teardrop Diamond (2008).

The following year he appeared in the
science-fiction thriller Push, with Dakota Fanning and Camilla Belle. Evans performed his own fight scenes, which took
weeks to film, and was bruised during filming.
In 2010, he completed
filming on co-directors Mark Kassen and Adam Kassen's Puncture in Houston, Texas. The film was selected to
debut at the 2011 Tribeca Film Festival as one of the Spotlight
projects for the 10th anniversary of the festival.
Also that year, Evans
appeared in Sylvain White's The Losers, an adaptation of
the comic-book series from the DC
Comics imprint Vertigo. Evans then appeared in another
comic-book adaptation, Edgar Wright's Scott Pilgrim vs. the World,
where he portrayed Lucas Lee, one of Ramona Flowers' seven evil exes.
In 2011, Evans played
the Marvel Comics character Captain America in Captain
America: The First Avenger, and starred in the film What's Your
Number?, a romantic comedy co-starring Anna Faris. There
were initially scheduling conflicts, as both films were set to film in the
summer of 2010.
Evans had signed on to
appear in multiple films as Captain America, and first reprised the role in the
2012 film The Avengers. He next starred opposite Michael
Shannon in The Iceman, replacing James Franco, who had
dropped out. Evans wore a long wig and grew out a beard for the
role. He starred in South Korean director Bong Joon-ho's
English-language film Snowpiercer.
In 2015, he played Captain America again in Avengers: Age of Ultron,
and reprised the role for the 2016 sequel Captain America: Civil War.In
2014, Evans starred in Captain America: The Winter Soldier. He
starred opposite Michelle Monaghan in the romantic comedy Playing
It Cool.His directorial debut, Before We Go, debuted at
the 2014 Toronto International Film Festival.
Captain America films |
Evans said in March 2014
that once his contract with Marvel is up, he might consider doing less acting
so he could work more on directing, and believes he will be finished
playing Captain America in 2017. In September 2015, however, he said in an
interview that he would be willing to sign on for more films as Captain America
after Infinity War if Marvel wanted to extend his
contract. He starred in the family drama Gifted in 2017.
In 2018, Evans will
reprise his role as Steve Rogers in Avengers: Infinity War and
will return for its 2019 sequel. He is also set to make his Broadway debut
in Lobby Hero, directed by Trip Cullman. The show is set to open in
March 2018 at the Helen Hayes Theatre as a part of Second Stage
Theatre's first Broadway season.
Evans is a fan of the New England Patriots and narrated America's Game: The Story of
the 2014 New England Patriots.
