Here's some good news and some bad news: Chris Evans looks good in Captain America: Civil War. Like, gooooooood. So good, in fact, that he ended up injuring himself.
"You try and get as fit as you can by the time you
start, and then throughout the filming, you just gradually lose weight,
because in that suit every day, you're sweating nonstop, you're tired,
your workouts kind of fall off a little bit," the 34-year-old actor
tells ET's Carly Steel of the secret to looking super buff on the big
screen.
"So, they load all the scenes where you have to be in a T-shirt in the beginning of the movie," he reveals.
One scene in particular -- which can be glimpsed
in the trailer -- finds Evans' Steve Rogers trying to stop a helicopter
from taking off. He's wearing one of those aforementioned T-shirts and
his biceps are on point.
"That was in the first week of filming. And I
actually messed up my arm doing it, I really did," Evans says. "It's a
fake helicopter, obviously, but it was drifting beyond the ability of
control. I tweaked a little something. To this day, I'm still messed
up."
Cap is all suited up though in the newest clip
from the Marvel epic, which debuted during the MTV Movie Awards on
Sunday. In the action-packed snippet, we see the super soldier get an
assist from Falcon (Anthony Mackie) and Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen)
to take down some baddies.
Lest you think all our talk of Captain America's muscles is gratuitous, Evans recently admitted that he is an "a** man"
on Anna Faris' podcast. "I'm way, way, way more of an a** man, clearly
more of an a** man," he candidly revealed on the show. "Just everyone
knows. I like butts."
"You gotta understand, we're doing a podcast in
Anna's living room," he now tells ET. "We're just hanging out. You're
just talking. And you're talking for like three hours, and you just
start talking normally. Then, of course, you guys just know how to
cherry pick those lines and blast them onto headlines, don't you?"
But Evans says any momentary embarrassment won't
stop him from speaking his mind, adorably adding, "I'll keep jamming my
foot in my mouth as long as I can. Don't you worry."
Captain America: Civil War hits theaters on May 6.
