Chris Evans weighed in on some viral comments famed director Quentin Tarantino made about the Marvel Cinematic Universe last year.

In an appearance on the 2 Bears 1 Cave podcast in December 2022, Quentin opined that the MCU’s actors are “not movie stars.”

“Captain America is the star. Or Thor is the star. I mean, I’m not the first person to say that. I think that’s been said a zillion times…but it’s like, you know, it’s these franchise characters that become a star,” he explained.

At the time, multiple actors in the mega-successful film universe weighed in, including one of Quentin‘s friends and a central actor in the cast.

Months after the fact, Chris reacted to the comments and revealed where he stood. His answer might surprise you.

Chris Evans was so well cast as Captain America in the Marvel Cinematic Universe that it seems like the role was meant for him. However, he faced some stiff competition for a chance to play the leader of the Avengers.

The actor brought Steve Rogers to life on the big screen starting in 2011 with Captain America: The First Avenger. He seemingly bowed out almost a decade later with Avengers: Endgame.

But was that really the end for him? Chris addressed his future within the franchise during a new interview, revealing if he was really done with the role or if there was a possible return in his future.

Additionally, while he is now synonymous with the part, Chris initially turned it down. Who might have picked up the shield if he never agreed to lead the Avengers? We did some digging and rounded up 10 other actors who auditioned for the opportunity.

Interestingly, some of them wound up acting alongside Chris in the MCU. Others joined the franchise after he left. Some even had the chance to play roles in mega-successful franchises, and one of them later revealed that they had to apologize to Marvel after their audition!
