In 2011, Chris Evans took on the role of Captain America for the first time in the Marvel films. In an interview, the actor now says that he wants to spend less time in this industry. He would much rather chill and do pottery.
In an interview with GQ magazine, Chris Evans talks about his plans after Captain America. The 42-year-old actor doesn’t see a return to the Marvel universe in the near future. Although he loves acting, he could live quite well without it, says Chris Evans. And he also has time for his other interests.
Finally, the actor said that there are certainly more Steve Rogers (Captain America) stories to tell. But not at this point. You can find out more about this from our colleagues at Filmstarts.

Smoking and pottery instead of acting
These are his plans: Chris Evans wants to work less in general and hopes to do a little less acting. He gave 20 years of his life to the industry and doesn’t want to take up too much space in it.
This is what he says in an interview with GQ:
I like analogue things. I’d like to just smoke a joint, put on some music and then do some pottery. Do you know what I mean? The same thing Seth Rogen does. That’s good for a man. You just go into your workshop and create something. And it’s satisfying, simple and everyday.

He now thinks longer before agreeing to new projects. He weighs the circumstances and then decides. It also depends on the time of year in which the film is being shot; he doesn’t want to miss autumn. “You only experience so many of them in your life.”
At first, Chris Evans even turned down the role of Captain America several times, but was then convinced:
Will there be a return to Marvel? When asked if there would be a return to the Marvel Universe, Chris Evans says he would “never never” say it was a wonderful experience. He is proud of it and sometimes can’t believe it happened.
However, there will be no comeback in the near future. He wants to pursue his other interests. His productivity is not always just about acting. His interests are diverse.
