Yesterday, Chris Evans took a break from enthusiastically tweeting about this year’s hellish Boston snowfall to post the official Captain American poster from Avengers 2: Age of Ultron. All of the movie’s posters are a wee bit photoshopped, which is to be expected from an ensemble comic book adaptation. Marvel is the only reason Evans ever has to shave. I like him with a beard, but it’s nice to see his face too. Cap fans would like to see the human Dorito turn around too, but patience is a virtue.

Evans appears to be the unofficial spokesman for the Ultron tour. He did some set interviews, including a gif-laden MTV talk. He also spoke with Slashfilm, but a publicist hovered over Evans the whole time. It’s hard to blame Marvel for being nervous after what Evans said last spring, but I think he’s learned his lesson. Think back to how well he did selling his movie at TIFF last year. Chris does manage to get a few covert complaints. To set the stage, S.H.I.E.L.D. no longer exists in this film. Tony Stark/Iron Man is footing the bill, and there is conflict. What Chris really wants to talk about is the evolution of Cap’s fighting style:

Cap kicks more butt in this film: “With the second Captain America we really pushed the envelope in terms of what this guy is capable of which I was excited to see. Because in the first Captain America he’s just strong. In Avengers it was still, in my opinion, a little bit punch, punch, kick, kick. You just can’t be Jason Bourne. We gotta see this guy do stuff that’s like yeah, he deserves a spot on this squad. You know, in [Winter Soldier] he’s pinballing off of jets and doing unbelievable things. I don’t wanna take a step back so we gotta make sure that he’s continuing training. His fight style needs to advance a little bit. I don’t wanna go full Bruce Lee, but there needs to be more than just haymakers and fun kicks. There needs to be a consistent display of strength. Utilize your environment in a way that’s like, ‘that’s right he can pick up a motorcycle with one hand …’ Let’s, let’s not forget that I can get punched by a human and get knocked down. It just doesn’t make sense to me. So that’s the only thing and that’s a tough thing to try to remember. You know, even in Avengers, you know, I punched a heavy bag across a room. If I hit a person he’s not getting back up. It’s just the way it’s gonna go, so we can’t do this any other way. That’s it. Just trying to keep your finger on that pulse and it’s tricky with all these characters.”

His favorite Avenger? “That’s so tough. I wouldn’t — I’d put myself kind of at the bottom of the list honestly. As a man, as a people I’d take Steve Rogers. As an avenger, come on I don’t know. I really think Thor is pretty cool. I really like Iron Man just ‘cause, you know, I can’t get enough of Downey. Every single line he gives is so good. It’s really crazy watching him work if you ever get a chance. You’re just like god, I can see why this guy gave birth to this — we wouldn’t be here if it hadn’t been for Downey and what he did with the first Iron Man.”

On Ultron: “Spader. God, Spader. So good. Well, I mean this thing about Joss. It’s not just about the power of the villain or his shiny light or his ability. It’s kind of the mentality of the villain. It’s really, Joss. He’s a very clever writer so it’s really about you guys are — can I say whatever the hell I wanna say? Am I already in deep sh*t? Don’t f*** me on this, guys.”

There’s a little bit of that Evans frustration peeking out with the fight-scene discussion. He claims that’s his only beef, but we’ll see how the rest of the tour goes. Evans goes on to discuss how Ultron compares to Loki and the respective magnificent of both Spader and Tom Hiddleston. By the way, Hiddles’ name did not appear on this poster, which is surprising. I thought for sure Marvel would accommodate the dragonflies. But hey, here’s a preview clip where Evans rips a tree stump in half as Robert Downey Jr. tries very hard not to laugh.

FYI, Chris still acts as male ambassador for the Gucci Guilty cologne. Here’s a promo where he talks about what he’d buy you for Valentine’s Day. It’s … not good.
