Chris Evans Reacts to All the Talk About His Captain America Beard

Chris Evans was a special guest on a recent episode of the Thirst Aid Kit podcast, and hosts, Bim and Nichole, grilled him about his Captain America beard!

If you remember, a large majority of social media chatter after the new Avengers: Infinity War trailer debuted included fans talking about Captain America’s brand new beard. Up until the trailer, Cap had only had a clean-shaven look.

The ladies commented on liking the beard and he responded, “Well that’s good. That’s good, because I like it too. I mean, I usually live my life with a beard. I’m not a huge fan of shaving, and it just provides a little bit of anonymity at times….I was really excited that the Russo’s and Marvel were willing to kinda give that look a shot.”

“I think it’s cool!” Chris continued. “I think it kind of changes things up. We’ve seen Cap the same way so many times. He’s such a throwback. He’s such a classic. It kind of gives him a little bit of a modern vibe.”

The hosts added, “People kept looking at the trailer because of your beard!”

“Well, hey, I wish he was here to thank you, but he’s been shaved! Don’t worry, I’ll get him back real soon,” Chris added. “It actually grows really quick.”
