Chris Hemsworth had the most wholesome reaction to Avengers co-star Chris Evans being named as People’s Sexiest Man Alive.
The Captain America actor nabbed the title earlier this month, replacing fellow Marvel icon Paul Rudd.
Speaking about the news while at the New York premiere of his new Limitless series, held at Jazz at Lincoln Center, the Thor star revealed that he couldn’t be happier for his pal.
‘It’s about time,’ he said. ‘I’ve been saying it for years and the world is finally catching up.
‘He’s a good looking human. Well deserved.’
When questioned about his own history with the title – which he landed in 2014 – Chris joked that he is officially no longer in his prime.

From the superhero star that has produced a series delving into longevity? We don’t believe it.
‘Many, many years ago,’ he added to Entertainment Tonight of his accolade. ‘I’m past my prime now. So it’s a passing of the torch.’
Chris Evans was unveiled as the sexiest man alive just last week, sending fans into meltdown with an extremely dapper photoshoot.
Despite boasting one of the biggest fanbases in the MCU, he revealed one person who would be more thrilled than most.

‘My mom will be so happy. She’s proud of everything I do but this is something she can really brag about,’ he told the publication, joking that his friends may have a different reaction.
‘Really this will just be a point of bullying. It’s ripe for harassment.’
Of course, he wasn’t wrong as his mom was beaming with pride, telling WHDH TV 7NEWS: ‘My reaction was, “yeah, of course, it’s about time!”
