Never knew I needed that #TheGrayManThe fact that Evans absolutely aced his role as the sociopath who spearheaded the manhunt against Ryan Gosling's character, CIA mercenary Court Gentry/Sierra Six, has left many awestruck.Chris Evans thinks that playing a villain is "a little more fun," fans extend warm support after The Gray Man releaseChris Evans has opened up about his role in the Netflix blockbuster and how his familiarity with the Russo brothers led to this sudden villainous turn. The actor commented on his experience of playing the villain:"Playing a villain is always a little more fun. You have a little bit more freedom, you get a lot more jokes - but working with the Russos is what gives that sense of trust and freedom. When you trust the filmmakers, you’re more willing to take risks, and certainly a character like this demands risks. Without the Russos and the relationship and rapport we have, I don’t know if I would have had such a rewarding experience."Twitter is flooded with fans applauding Chris Evans and portrayal of Hansen in the movie. After years of being typecast as a moral and righteous character, Evans is finally venturing into the dark side, and we are loving every bit of it.Take a look at some of the fan reactions to Chris Evans' performance in The Gray Man.𝕝𝕒𝕕𝕪 𝕒𝕝𝕖𝕩𝕚𝕤@ilovealexisturned down drinks tonight to stay home, do some laundry, relax (finally) and watch @ChrisEvans' mustache in #TheGrayManwild Friday night.turned down drinks tonight to stay home, do some laundry, relax (finally) and watch @ChrisEvans' mustache in #TheGrayManwild Friday night. https://t.co/rS99n1Y8vz𝙶𝚒𝚜𝚎𝚕𝚕𝚎✨✖️✖️🖤//THOR❤️+⚡️ ERA@giselleb1234Chris Evans as movie villains doing THAT pose🏽 #ChrisEvans #TheGrayMan #LloydHansen225Chris Evans as movie villains doing THAT pose🙌🏽🔥 #ChrisEvans #TheGrayMan #LloydHansen https://t.co/9zH5Bb79TiOne user deplored that Evans did not get more screen time.Arent You Tired Yet@AnnoyedSooooI needed John Wick fighting with a mix of Mission Impossible / Daniel Craig Bond level plots and twists and #TheGrayMan just wasn’t doing it for me.
