Chris Evans and US President Joe Biden’s recent interaction was something the actor’s fans had not expected. Evans was at the White House promoting his civic engagement website, ‘A Starting Point,’ where he met with Biden, who congratulated him on his work. The President then thoughtfully gifted him a pair of sunglasses. The ‘Captain America actor had the most wholesome reaction to the gesture.
The actors have crossed paths with each other on multiple occasions, but this was one of the most memorable for many reasons. The former CIA director took the opportunity to compliment the actor and also encouraged him on his work for civic engagement.
Evans and Biden discussed ways of educating young people about the various political viewpoints and issues, including climate change. It was clear from the conversation that both of them had similar views and were able to have a productive discussion.
The duo even discussed the upcoming film ‘The Red One,’ which stars Dwayne Johnson and Emily Blunt. They agreed that the film will be an important and relevant story for this upcoming generation of Americans.
Evans has long advocated for civic engagement and continually seeks opportunities to help his fellow citizens become more informed about politics and current events. He works on a non-partisan website that breaks down major political issues into easy-to-understand video explainers.
His goal is to inspire the next generation to take their own lives into their own hands and participate in shaping their communities. Evans has been praised by many of his celebrity colleagues for his efforts in this regard. Actors like Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Mindy Kaling, Natalie Portman, and Ken Jeong have congratulated him on his work.
The actor has greatly supported Democratic candidates and is eager to see Biden win the presidential election. He was also involved in helping Hillary Clinton during her campaign.
Unlike many other celebrities, Evans has avoided supporting the Republican party and has been vocal against Trump’s policies. The ‘Captain America’ star has urged his followers to vote for Biden and Kamala Harris in the upcoming elections.
Despite being active in civic engagement, Evans has yet to plan to run for office now. He believes there are better ways to make a difference than becoming a lawmaker. Previously, the actor had stated that having a diverse and representative government was crucial. Moreover, he also mentioned that his parents are immigrants and worked hard to give him the opportunities he has today. He added that he also wanted to continue this legacy of hard work and public service in the future. The actor has been keeping busy with his upcoming projects. He will be seen in ‘The Red One,’ directed by Jake Kasdan. He will also feature in ‘The Voyage of the Dawn Treader,’ which is being co-directed by Christopher Nolan and Jonathan Nolan.
