Evans, who is 41 and single, said the title
“feels like a weird form of humble bragging.” However, he was
eager to share the news with his biggest fan - his mom.
“My mom will be so happy,” Evans told People in an interview.
“She’s proud of everything I do but this is something she can
really brag about.”
Evans has grown in popularity over the years from starring in
one of his first television series, “Opposite Sex” in 2000 to
portraying Steve Rogers/Captain America, who was labeled
"America's Ass" in the Marvel movie "Avengers: Endgame" in 2019.
Despite his many Hollywood accolades, the “Gray Man” star has
aspirations outside of acting, which include marriage and
fatherhood.
Evans said, “That’s absolutely something I want.”
“Some things you want just for you, or just for my family and my
friends. The most enjoyable aspect of my career right now is
feeling secure enough to take my foot off the gas. I feel like I
have a bit more freedom to take time away from the industry and
still find projects that will satisfy my creative appetite when
I return.”
While he is one man who is uncomfortable using "sexy" in a
sentence about himself, Evans, a Boston native, is not shy about
expressing what he thinks makes his hometown a sexy place.
“So much history there! I love the accent. To me, the accent is
home,” he said. “I love the weather. The seasons, the sports
teams. But the sexiest thing about Boston ... maybe our
universities. We’ve got a lot of good schools. Let’s give
education a plug, that’s damn sexy.”
While Evans is still getting accustomed to his new seal of
attractiveness, the actor told People he will look back fondly
on the honor when he becomes “old and saggy.”
He told the magazine, “I’m lucky to be in the discussion in any
capacity."
