Chris Evansknows how to give the people what they want.
Evans, 38, stars in the new critically acclaimed murder mystery filmKnives Out, and viewers have been enamored with one specific thing about his character: hiscozy white cable-knit sweater.
After the sweater caused a frenzy among fans who wanted to steal it, the actor gave them a treat on Christmas Day when he posted two shots of his beloved dog Dodger wearing a custom version of the sweater.
“I have to see #KnivesOut again just to enjoy this pic fully. Merry Christmas to you and your boy!”one delighted follower wrote.
Film reporterAnna Mentasummed up the unexpected obsession in a single tweet: “The only thing I will say aboutKnives Outis that, upon seeingChris Evansin a sweater, the girl next to me gasped and said very softly and tenderly, ‘Sweater.’”
While she doesn’t remember the details, Eagan’s choice was intentional — she told the outlet that the off-white color of the sweater complimented Evans’ eyes, and made sense for Ransom because “wealthy people can always wear white — nothing ever gets dirty.”
So where did Ransom’s tattered cozy knit end up after filming wrapped?
When asked what Evans swiped from setduring a cast interview, he replied, “All the sweaters,” quickly adding, “But I had permission so it’s not stealing.”
