Chris Evans vs. Scott Evans
How you know him
Chris: Chris hit the acting scene only in the early 2000s, which makes it all the more impressive that he’s become the go-to guy for superhero flicks. It started with his role as Johnny Storm in Fantastic Four, then he was soon after cast as Captain America in the title movies, The Avengers franchise and even Thor: The Dark World.
Scott: Chances are you’ve seen (and admired) Scott on the TV or big screen and simply had no idea he was related to Chris. He’s best known for his role as Officer Fish on One Life to Live, but Scott has also enjoyed TV cameos on other shows such as Law & Order and White Collar. At this time, he has two movies set for release this year.
Why we love him
Chris: He just seems so down-to-earth. Seriously, can’t you imagine sitting down and swigging some beer with this guy?
Scott: Although he was busted for trying to buy cocaine from an undercover cop in 2012, he didn’t let it reduce him. Rather, he fessed up and moved on.
