People’s magazine has revealed its Sexiest Man Alive 2022 and it’s none other than Chris Evans himself. The 41-year-old actor has successfully taken the title from his fellow MCU co-star, Paul Rudd. The news was first announced on Monday night on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.
The actor reportedly said to People Magazine that, his mother will be proud of him and it is something she will be able to brag about. He also said that it is a little awkward for him as well calling it, “humble bragging”.
Chris Evans is infamously known for playing the role of Captain America across MCU movies but that is not all the actor has done. Even though most people know him only as the First Avenger, the actor has played other various roles which are highly underrated and deserves the same recognition.
