Chris Evans's filmography will appeal to all viewers who like quality science fiction movies. Despite the fact that the American actor, known to the general public as Captain America, has never been awarded a significant film award, he copes well with his roles. What is known about the past and present of the star, which films with his participation can be called the best?
Chris Evans: Celebrity Biography
The actor, famous for his roles in box office fiction films, is a native of Massachusetts, was born in 1981. The boy’s father at that time worked as a dentist, his mother was a professional dancer. In total, Chris's parents have four children. It is interesting that the younger brother of the actor chose a similar profession for himself.
The ability to perform on stage, to dance - all these skills were developed by Chris Evans in his school years. The biography of the star contains a mention of his studies in the local drama circle, whose teachers always praised the talented boy. Immediately after graduation, the actor secretly from his parents left for New York. He considered this city an ideal place for the realization of his own abilities and was not mistaken.
First steps to fame
Of course, fame did not fall on the actor immediately after his move to New York. The filmography of Chris Evans begins with episodic roles. The first telenovela, where he was taken, was the project "Beginners", in which the young man played boyfriend Jadi. It can also be seen in episodes of the series "Cards, money, two trunks-2", "Leather", "New Arrivals".
In 2001, the filmography of Chris Evans finally acquires a picture where he is assigned the main role. This is the comedy "Nonsense movie" in which the actor becomes Jack Wyler. Interestingly, before shooting, he spent a lot of time in the gym, as he was to strip naked in the frame. This was followed by roles in the films "Eastwick", "High Ball", which did not bring him the desired fame.
First successful films
Participation in the filming of the high-budget thriller "Cell" was the first real achievement that Chris Evans made. The main roles of the actor in subsequent films, of course, were remembered by the public more. However, it was the film of David Ellis that gave the young man the first fans. His hero Ryan must save the kidnapped girl who accidentally contacted him by phone.
In 2005, the filmography of Chris Evans was replenished with a tape, thanks to which he was able to declare himself as a dramatic actor. Unfortunately, the picture "London", in which he was assigned the role of a drug addict, hopelessly failed at the box office. It is interesting that London in this case is not the name of the English capital at all, but the name of the girl with whom the hero of Evans is unrequitedly in love.
Despite the failure of the previous film, 2005 can not be called unsuccessful for Chris. It was at this time that he participated in the filming of the Fantastic Four, transforming into the elusive Johnny Storm. After the release of the picture, an army of fans appears at the rising star.
The brightest role
Despite the success of the Fantastic Four, this project is not at all crucial for such an actor as Chris Evans. Films in which he will be removed in the future, will not be able to repeat the success of "The First Avenger", released in 2011. As all loyal fans of cult comics know, the young man was assigned the role of Captain America.
Chris took the most responsible attitude towards preparing for the shoot. He devoted a great deal of time to reading the comics underlying the plot. Also, the guy paid maximum attention to his own physical form, he practically did not leave the gym.
Evans had to return to the image of Captain America already in 2012, when the blockbuster Avengers saw the light. This picture also made a splash due to the unification of all the characters of the famous comics. The project “The First Avenger-2”, released in 2014, was also successful. Chris firmly entrenched in the role of a superhero. However, the actor himself is not particularly upset, although he dreams of filming in a serious dramatic film.
