He declared that he now has a career where he can do what he enjoys. He can do everyday things like go on a dog walk, and nobody annoys him. And, because he has few friends, he is free to travel wherever. He was worried that he might lose that freedom and kind of leisure. However, her mother eventually talked to and convinced him to take the role. Good thing he accepted the role as the American actor is now having fun hanging out with his Avengers cast mates. Evans and colleague actress Scarlett Johansson intend to get matching tattoos with the original Avengers cast members to commemorate the release of Avengers: Infinity Wars, according to Entertainment Weekly (2019).
