How tall is Captain America star Chris Evans? Following his screen debut with 1997's educational video Biodiversity: Wild About Life! Evans moved on to Fox's teen drama Opposite Sex alongside Milo Ventimiglia; this series only lasted one season. His first role in a movie came with 2001's Not Another Teen Movie, a parody of teen comedies like American Pie where he played main character, Jake. Even in his first lead role, Evans showed considerable charm and comic chops, and bigger gigs soon came his way.
Chris Evans appeared alongside Scarlett Johansson in 2004's The Perfect Score and Jason Statham in intense thriller Cellular, based on a story by the late Larry Cohen. His first major role in a blockbuster came with 2005's Fantastic Four, based on the classic Marvel comic. Both the movie and its 2007 sequel Fantastic 4: Rise Of The Silver Surfer received weak reviews upon release and they're not fondly remembered now, but again, Evans' cocky Johnny Storm was easily the most charismatic character in either film. Faring much better from 2007 is Danny Boyle's sci-fi epic Sunshine which follows a team of astronauts hoping to reignite a dying sun with a nuclear weapon.
More comic book-inspired projects would follow for Chris Evans, including voicing Casey in 2007's animated adventure TMNT and he played team "geek" Jensen in The Losers. One of his most popular roles is the villainous "evil ex" Lucas Lee in Edgar Wright's Scott Pilgrim Vs The World, where he's having a great time hamming it up. He made his MCU debut as the title character in 2011's Captain America: The First Avenger, and returned for two direct sequels and all of The Avengers movies. As for his height, Evans stands at 6 foot tall, or 1.83 m.
Chris Evans is now retired from Steve Rogers but his turn has come to define Captain America for many fans. Of course, he remained busy outside the MCU, appearing in the likes of 2011's frothy romantic comedy What's Your Number? with Anna Faris and crime drama The Iceman. In 2012 he played the main role in the sci-fi action movie Snowpiercer, where what remains of mankind survives on a crammed train that travels around the globe, with the oppressed passengers rising up against their rulers. The movie received great reviews and was later adapted into a Netflix series.
In recent years Chris Evans won praise for his slyly comic turn as Ransom in Rian Johnson's twisty comic thriller Knives Out. His most recent series was Apple's Defending Jacob, playing a man whose son is accused of murder. Evans and co-stars Michelle Dockery and Jaeden Martell all received critical raves for their work. He will next reunite with the Russo Brothers for The Gray Man, which will pit his character against Ryan Gosling's rival assassin.
