Beauty Break: To Chris Evans on his 37th Birthday
by Nathaniel R
A very happy 37th birthday today to one of Hollywood's true good guys, Chris Evans. In addition to making the perfect superhero onscreen, he's a progressive feminist and all around role model offscreen. His only sin that we can recall is that one time he threatened to retire from acting when his run as Captain America ends (in 2019 *gulp*). But his recent stint on Broadway in Lobby Hero suggests to us that he might not give up on that particular craft so quickly.
He's wonderful and also, obviously, an all-time looker. Much balm for sore eyes after the jump...

AND WHO CAN FORGET THAT INFAMOUS 2004 PHOTOSHOOT FOR FLAUNT MAGAZINE PHOTOGRAPHED BY TONY DURAN...
Classic -- Even if his management wasn't pleased at the time!
P.S. In a weird side-note Chris Evans actually shares a birthday with multiple other Marvel or superhero actors. Well perhaps that's not so odd since everyone is in superhero movies these days. Today is also the birthday of: Aaron Taylor-Johnson (Quicksilver in Avengers: Age of Ultron), Stellan Skarsgård (Erik Selvig in the Thor movies), Kat Dennings (Darcy Lewis in the Thor movies), Kodi Smit-McPhee (Nightcrawler in the X-Men movies), ...and Paul Lynde. What? Shut up. He was Super-Gay back in the day.
P.P.S. Hug your nearest "Chris" today in Chris Evans' honor!

That Flaunt Magazine photoshoot is by far his greatest contribution to modern culture. Happy Birthday to Chris Evans, the gift that keeps on giving.
I have never seen To Gillian on Her 37th Birthday. As a Pfeiffer completist, I should be ashamed.
My heart ended up with Tatum and Hemsworth, but I *did* see "Cellular" in the theater. He is shirtless for the first half hour.
I think he looks better in a beard. It makes him manlier.
That Flaunt photo shoot made being a closeted gay senior in high school temporarily tolerable ... sigh. Love him.
chris evans is one of the greatest actors on broadway and on cinema.
A beautiful movie star
Adore him. So wonderful and touching in Snowpiercer. This post title reminds me, I'm still celebrating Kathy Baker's bday.
This lady thanks you for the lovely post. Those eyes!
That Flaunt photoshoot is maybe the sexiest shoot any male star has done in recent memory.
I was hoping you'd include one of the greatest GIFs of all time: https://www.google.com/search?q=chris+evans+chopping+wood+gif&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiv_PuhvdPbAhWXnoMKHQzGBVIQsAQIKA&biw=1459&bih=684#imgrc=ENEFZgg_HUUBzM:
Stuff that upsets management makes you legendary.
