Even ‘Captain America’ himself Chris Evens sent out this touching message.
This is truly heartbreaking. What an unbelievable loss. Few careers have such longevity and impact. One of my favorite memories from Knives Out was playing piano together in the Thrombey house between set ups. He was a lovely man and a legendary talent. ??? https://t.co/eFwNVe762w
