Here are five key takeaways from the piece, courtesy E! News:

  1. Evans had three celebrity crushes – "Elisabeth Shue from Adventures of Babysitting and Karate Kid, Lori Loughlin was a big one. Sandra Bullock was a big one too, like when I was like in seventh or eighth grade," he said.
  2. Evans can tap dance and would love to star in a musical. "I love Gene Kelly, he was great. Wouldn't it be great to do a [Gene Kelly] biopic or something like that?" he said.
  3. "I am a Disney buff," he said.
  4. Evans favourite subject in school was mathematics and he didn't like English.
  5. Evans is not ready to put down his Captain America shield. "I have been doing this for so long. It's tough to think about not doing it. For almost a decade now there has always been one around the corner. I would be open to it. I love playing that guy," he said.

Evans will play the role of a boat mechanic who single-handedly raise his six-year-old math prodigy niece in the movie Gifted. The film releases on April 12 and Mckenna Grace is playing his niece.
