During an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Avengers: Endgame star Chris Evans commented on his anti-Donald Trump tweets.
Marvel Studios’ Avengers: Endgame is set to conclude the first decade of Marvel Cinematic Universe stories, collectively known as The Infinity Saga, and fans are concented the highly-anticipated film will mark the final appearance of Chris Evans’ Captain America. However, Chris Evans continues to embody the First Avenger on social media with posts that mock and criticize United States President Donald Trump, which has earned admiration from Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige:
“Marvel has never said anything. On the contrary — when I bump into Kevin Feige the first thing out of his mouth is ‘Man, I love what you’re doing [on Twitter].'”
Kevin Feige noted that Chris Evans’ social media posts about President Donald Trump are very “Cap-like”:
“I don’t see it as trash-talking. I see it as very astute, very honorable, very noble, very Cap-like. Commentary and questioning. I’ve said to him, ‘You’re merging! You and the character are merging!'”
Chris Evans noted that while his social media posts about Donald Trump could alienate supporters of the President, he would be disappointed in himself he did not speak out against the actions of this U.S. administration:
“You don’t want to alienate half your audience. But I’d be disappointed in myself if I didn’t speak up. Especially for fear of some monetary repercussion or career damage — that just feels really gross to me.”
