Chris Evans, famous for his role as Captain America, is ready to take on a new challenge in the entertainment industry—musicals. The action star, known for his tough-guy roles, is eager to step into a different genre, revealing that he’s “waiting to do an actual musical film.” In an exclusive conversation with People Magazine, Evans shared his desire to explore singing and dancing, areas that are a far cry from his usual roles.
Chris Evans Talks About His Musical Aspirations
Despite his success in action-packed blockbusters like The Avengers series and The Red One, Chris Evans has his eyes set on a new frontier. “I want to sing, dance. That is what I want,” he explained. However, he also acknowledged the challenge of diving into a genre so different from his usual work. Evans pointed out that musicals require a lot of preparation and skill, saying, “That’s tough though because that’s something you got to do right.”
Evans also mentioned the rarity of opportunities in the genre, adding, “You only get so many bites at that apple,” emphasizing that if he were to take on a musical, it would need to be the perfect fit. The actor clearly values the chance to showcase his talents in such a demanding field, describing his approach as cautious and thoughtful. “I’m very precious with it, and I want to make sure it’s the right thing,” Evans said.
Despite the challenges, Evans seems excited about the possibility. He stated, “That’s the quickest way to get me in a room. If you say it’s going to be a musical, I’m listening.”
Dwayne Johnson Supports Evans’ Musical Ambitions
While Evans shared his dreams, his The Red One co-star Dwayne Johnson was right by his side, enthusiastically supporting his ambitions. Johnson, who has proven his own musical chops in Moana, expressed confidence in Evans’ potential, describing him as “crazy talented musically.” Johnson seemed convinced that Evans’ dream role would become a reality, calling it something he felt was “going to happen.”
The two stars are currently on a promotional tour for The Red One, a Christmas action-comedy film featuring a star-studded cast including Kiernan Shipka, Lucy Liu, J.K. Simmons, and Mary Elizabeth Ellis. The duo’s camaraderie has been a highlight of the promotional period, with Johnson playfully “manifesting” Evans’ future success in musical films.
Chris Evans’ foray into musicals is an unexpected turn for a star known for his superhero roles, but it’s clear he’s open to exploring new creative territories. Fans will have to wait to see if Evans takes the plunge into a musical in the near future, but based on his excitement and Johnson’s support, it could be just a matter of time.
