Chris Evans’ latest public appearance has sparked a feral epidemic on social media.

On 4 September, the 50th annual Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) kicked off its two-week run.

As in previous years, the event features a diverse range of film screenings, lectures, discussions, festivals, workshops, and other events.

In addition to offering a packed itinerary, TIFF gives fans a chance to see their favourite celebrities, with many A-list actors attending the event to support their upcoming projects.

On 6 September, the girls, gays and theys were sent down a thirst-fueled spiral when Chris Evans was spotted at the festival alongside his Sacrifice co-star Anya Taylor-Joy.

Keeping things simple, the Materialists star sported a dark blue shirt – which showcased his bulging biceps and massive chest – with a pair of black slacks and round spectacles reminiscent of Jonathan Bailey’s viral ‘sluttly little glasses.’

Of course, it didn’t take long for Evans’ TIFF appearance to spread like wildfire on X/Twitter, with many users sharing their feral and hilarious reactions to his noticeably bigger physique and “babygirl” energy.

“No lube, no protection, all night, all day, missionary, cowboy, reverse cowboy, doggy, backwards, sideways, on the bed, on the couch, bent over the kitchen counter, by the fireplace, against the wall, in the shower, on the floor, in the basement, against the window,” one fan wrote.

Another person commented: “Chris Evans girlies have experienced diminishing returns in recent years, but we’re starting to have a comeback.”

A third Chris Evans enthusiast added: “Slutty little glasses and a tight shirt, I’ll never be over Chris Evans as long as I live.”

Evans’ buff new look also captured the attention of MCU fans who became convinced that he would be reprising his role as Captain America in Avengers: Doomsday.

“Welcome back, Captain America, oh ma gurd,” one user tweeted, while another wrote: “This is the most Steve Rogers that Chris Evans has ever looked.”
