Although he was finally a part of the franchise, he was still learning to deal with the newfound fame. However, he found his comfort in the Thor actor who was dealing with something similar. Talking about the same, “It was nice having Chris Hemsworth around because he was going through it, too. I mean, at the time Downey’s Robert Downey Jr (that famous) and Scarlett’s Scarlett (Johansson). And (Mark) Ruffalo and (Jeremy) Renner, at the time, were crushing it, too. Hemsworth and I were very new and we also had the stand-alones and so I think we shared in our anxiety, and at least that made it a little bit more comforting,” revealed Chris Evans.
Well, we’re glad that Thor and Captain America were there for each other. It’s like that celebratory moment when Captain America ended up picking Thor’s hammer. Isn’t it?
