Real reason Captain America star Chris Evans skipped huge premiere of his new film in Cannes

BBG News

During the 78th Cannes Film Festival in France, it was evident that Chris Evans was not present for the world premiere of his latest movie, “Honey Don’t,” on Friday.

Instead of waiting, it wasn’t until Sunday morning that the recently turned 44-year-old ex-Captain America finally revealed the reason behind his disappearance.

Chris expressed a regret that he couldn’t have joined his amazing cast and crew at Cannes, as he shared on his post.” (This version maintains the original sentiment while making it more conversational and easier to understand.)

However, today was my mother’s 70th birthday, an occasion I couldn’t possibly overlook! A big congratulations to everyone!

Or:

I couldn’t skip my mother’s 70th birthday, it’s a special event not to be missed! So, here’s to her and everyone else, congratulations!

Evans enjoys a very close relationship with his separated mother Lisa. She encouraged his creativity from a young age by setting up a dance floor in the basement of their home in Sudbury, Massachusetts.

Previously, a dance professional is now employed as the artistic director at the Concord Youth Theater. In this role, the lead actor from the Red One films serves on the advisory board, while his sister, Shanna, works as a costume designer.

As a devoted admirer, I couldn’t help but be proud when Chris was bestowed the title of People’s Sexiest Man Alive in 2022, and I took great joy in sharing this news with others. It was indeed me who persuaded him to accept the multi-film MCU role of Steve Rogers, a decision that I believe will prove to be a remarkable milestone in his career.

‘His biggest fear was losing his anonymity,’ Evans (born Capuano) told Esquire in 2020.

He expressed, “Currently, I’m engaged in a job that I genuinely enjoy. I get to take my dog for walks. There are no distractions or interruptions. No one tries to engage with me. I have the freedom to go wherever I please. The thought of giving up this independence is absolutely terrifying to me.

Lisa went on to say: “Here’s the thing, if you accept this role, it could mean a lifetime of acting work for you. You wouldn’t need to stress about paying rent anymore. If you choose to take it, just remember that it should enrich your life, not bring any unnecessary hardship.

As a devoted fan, I’m thrilled to share some exciting news: According to TheWrap, Chris Evans will be part of the Russo Brothers’ upcoming Marvel Cinematic Universe film, Avengers: Doomsday, set to storm US and UK theaters on December 18, 2026. However, the specific role he’ll play remains a mystery for now.

Last Friday, the director of “Honey Don’t,” Ethan Coen, ascended the majestic stairs of Palais des Festivals, accompanied by actors such as Margaret Qualley, Aubrey Plaza, and Charlie Day.

On Saturday, the same team – which includes fellow screenwriter Tricia Cooke – dressed up for the photocall of their whodunit dark comedy production.

In Honey Don’t, which will be released in US cinemas on August 22, Chris seems perfectly at home as Reverend Drew Devlin, the cult leader character. However, according to THR critic Lovia Gyarkye, the movie appears more like a string of jokes without a clear resolution.

On the previous Friday, film critic Therese Lacson from Collider penned that the character portrayed by Evans was one of the most hilarious in the movie. However, she raised doubts about the significance or purpose of his character after the film’s enigmatic ending.

The Mashable critic, Kristy Puchko, concurred that the finale might lead to a split opinion among both reviewers and viewers. She found the character of the Boston-born Buddhist to be hilariously amusing and appreciated his physical actions as perfectly absurd.

Out of the 12 critiques, the movie “Honey Don’t” currently holds an unimpressive 50% favorable rating among critics on Rotten Tomatoes.

On December 30th, Chris completed his part as the kidnapped film personality Mike Tyler in Romain Gavras’ forthcoming action-comedy titled Sacrifice.

Additionally, it’s noted that Evans was involved in the production of the film starring Anya Taylor-Joy, Salma Hayek, Vincent Cassel, Charli XCX, and John Malkovich.

Evans is recognized as a producer for the movie with Anya Taylor-Joy, Salma Hayek, Vincent Cassel, Charli XCX, and John Malkovich in the cast.

Initially, fans have a chance to see Ryan Reynolds, known for his roles as Deadpool and Wolverine, playing a lovesick waiter named John in the romantic comedy “Materialists” by Celine Song. This film is set to release in US cinemas on June 13, co-starring Dakota Johnson and Pedro Pascal.
