Chris Evans initially turned down the role of Captain America twice for fear of being typecast before his mother convinced him to take the part, which worked out pretty well for him in the end.

Another one of the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s marquee stars who renegotiated their contract several times, it wound up with Evans’ percentage points from Avengers: Endgame coming to a hefty $43.5 million.

That’s not a bad return for the leader of the Avengers, and now that he’s rumored to be in talks for a return, you’d imagine the studio are putting together an incredibly lucrative financial package to lure him back.

Interesting facts about BTS
