On June 26, on SiriusXM’s The Jess Cagle podcast, the Avengers star talked about her long-standing friendship with Chris Evans. “I’ve known Chris since I was 17. We could talk for hours about anything, even though Chris is a few years older than me,” the actress said. Photo: AP.

Scarlett joined the MCU in 2010 with Iron Man 2. A year later, the producer invited Chris Evans to play Captain America for Captain America: The First Avenger . At first, the actor was hesitant and did not want to accept because he was afraid of being too famous. However, he was persuaded by a close friend. “I talked to Chris as the person who signed the contract with Marvel first. I didn’t feel pressured like Chris. Finally, he agreed,” Johansson told Variety. Photo: Marvel Studios.

In an interview with the Los Angeles Times , Johansson said she was happy to have the opportunity to work with Chris Evans. “We are close in real life, we admire each other as colleagues. We are used to interacting on film, we learned that from past collaborations,” Johansson said of her friendship with Evans. Photo: Getty.

Despite constant dating rumors, Chris Evans has repeatedly confirmed to the media that he and Scarlett Johansson are close friends. The actor considers her a sister. “Scarlett is a beautiful, smart and funny woman. She’s like a sister to me. It’s great to be friends with such a sharp girl,” the actor told Playboy magazine . According to Access Hollywood , Black Widow agrees with Chris’s statement. “He’s a big brother but he’s childish, a little annoying but still very charming,” she said. Photo: Getty.

In The Winter Soldier , the two characters Steve and Natasha kissed. Thanks to intimate behind-the-scenes videos and interactions in interviews, fans always support each time they have chemistry on screen, according to Screenrant. In a conversation with the Los Angeles Times , director Joe Russo said: “I think they act well because they are close friends. They bring a lot of energy and their own ideas that are not in the script.” Photo: People.

With Black Widow , Scarlett Johansson’s recent blockbuster and final outing as an MCU superhero, Chris Evans has been a big supporter. “Scarlett is great and has always done a great job in other films. It’s great that she has her own film,” Chris told Elle . In an interview with Vogue , the American actor continued to praise his close friend: “I just want Scarlett to be my travel companion when traveling or driving. She always makes us laugh and makes us happy.” Photo: AP.
