It was announced yet again on The Late Show with Steve Colbert. Evans said being given the title “feels like a weird form of humble bragging.” He went on to say, ”My mom will be so happy. She’s proud of everything I do, but this is something she can really brag about.”

The sexiest man alive feature has been an annual event for the magazine since it’s inception in 1985 with the legendary Mel Gibson being named for that year.

The 41-year-old Evans is best known for his portrayal of Steve Rogers as Captain America in the Marvel franchise. This year alone, he has starred in the new Pixar film called Lightyear and Netflix’s
Grayman, along with filming three new movies, including Ghosted for AppleTV+.

Other recent winners of this honour were Paul Rudd, Michael B. Jordan, John Legend, Idris Elba and Blake Shelton.
