Chris Evans Brought His Muscles To The Lightyear Red Carpet And Twitter Is Steamed Up

For a company that makes family-oriented products, Disney certainly has an arms race going when it comes to premiere carpet thirst traps. Moon Knight’s Oscar Isaac heated up some premieres previously this year, and now MCU vet/current Space Ranger Chris Evans is taking the torch. At the big debut of his upcoming movie Lightyear, Evans brought his muscles to the party, and Twitter is steamed up over it all. 

The El Capitan Theatre hosted the star studded event honoring Disney/Pixar’s latest motion picture. With the Lightyear cast on hand, the world’s eyes were on Hollywood, though as you’ll see in the photo below, a majority of them were trained on this Evans-centric smoke show. 

This man is out of this world. I mean, who looks like this? In no time flat Chris Evans has gone from America’s Ass in Avengers:  to America’s Astronaut, thanks to Lightyear casting him as the “real” Buzz Lightyear. As for the confident gesture that Evans is giving to the camera? That’s a man that’s going to defeat Zurg, and then come home to a captive audience to tell the tale.

But seriously, the looks we’re seeing from Evans here are reminiscent of that time Oscar Isaac had us all questioning whether loose and casual or formal with a skirt was the better look. If you needed more evidence to fully weigh that debate in your mind, then you’re in luck. There’s another photo below that shows Chris Evans on the Purple Carpet, making a case for Team Casual Daddy. 

Don’t take my word for it though, as Lightyear’s looks have sent the internet into a bit of a thirsty spiral. User “flaminghotcevans” starts us off with a very specific request for Chris Evans. Looking back at those premiere photos, I can kind of see where this person’s oddly specific request is coming from:

It’s amazing to think back to how just a couple years ago we were just chilling, obsessing over Chris Evans’ Knives Out sweater. Now, one Disney movie later, we’re all going feral with the fact that the gun show is back in town. As user “HoliH1” points out in this next tweet, productivity might be taking a crash landing this morning:
