Chris Evans In A Sweater Is Getting People Hot And Bothered Over Knitwear
Captain America is going to help people soldier through winter, thanks to his ability to wear a sweater very, very well.
On Thursday, Anna Menta, a senior film reporter for Decider, posted a very short review of Chris Evans’ latest film, “Knives Out.”
“The only thing I will say about Knives Out is that, upon seeing Chris Evans in a sweater, the girl next to me gasped and said very softly and tenderly, ‘Sweater,’” Menta wrote.

Turns out that the sweater whisperer was Nicole Gallucci, a culture reporter at Mashable.
Oh. Oh my GOD. This was... ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! https://t.co/ji5SF0ANOu

Gallucci, in her own tweet, elaborated: “There is a scene in Knives Out where Chris Evans is in a freaking cable knit sweater sitting in front of four beer bottles and it’s the hottest thing I’ve ever seen!”

I famously have no visual imagination but somehow IT IS FOREVER IN MY BRAIN.— Nicole Gallucci (@nicolemichele5) November 7, 2019
Well, it seems that Gallucci wasn’t alone in her reaction to Evans in knitwear. Plenty of other people felt the exact same way about seeing the actor in something so cozy it somehow made him even more alluring.
The mood eventually sparked the hashtag #ChrisEvansInASweater, and people had plenty of say:

It’s not just that men wearing sweaters is hot. It’s that a man being able to maintain a care-intensive sweater without just throwing it in the washing machine on “hot permanent press” is hot. https://t.co/mrySuCgfxq

I was wondering why I’m not as attractive as Chris Evans turns out I just needed buy a bunch of wool sweaters and spend my time carefully maintaining them.

I got to meet @ChrisEvans a few years ago. He was wearing a super soft white sweater. I accidentally pet his back while doing the photo op. (It was really soft and he smelled pretty OKAY)

Ok, I met him at Salt Lake Comic Con several years ago where he was also wearing a very soft sweater and smelled delightful, it was like hugging the American Dream

We need a Chris Evans Hallmark movie stat. He can play a vet in Portland, ME who is battling a greedy (but hot) landlord over a rent increase. He warms her heart. She gives him the building. Animal meet cute. All the sweaters.

I now need to Google Chris Evans in a sweater. For research of course. 😏

Although Evans hasn’t responded to all the sweater lust yet, he seems to have plenty in his wardrobe:

And seems to be a fan of sweater weather in general.
Autumn in Massachusetts is my favorite time in my favorite place.
Also Happy Halloween!! 🎃— Chris Evans (@ChrisEvans) October 31, 2019
So, be prepared for a very steamy winter, everyone!
