Keeping your real life and your villain-punching life separate not only helps to simplify things and keep your weekends free, it also keeps your friends and family safe– from assassins and robots to people throwing sodas from moving cars....

Chris Evans started acting professionally about two decades ago. He started his career in teen television, like Opposite Sex, and movies like Not Another Teen Movie. Since then, he’s moved away from those comedies into dramas and action.
