Chris Evans seems like a pretty good dude. He was also Captain America. That trilogy, in my opinion, was the only comic book movie trilogy that didn’t have a sub par installment. He, along with fellow Avenger Mark Ruffalo (The Hulk) spoke out after hearing of a young boy named Bridger, who saved his younger sister from a dog attack earlier this week.
Nikki Walker started an Instagram account just to get her nephew’s heroic story out there, writing that “my nephew is a hero who saved his little sister from an attacking dog. He, himself, took on the attack so that the dog wouldn’t get his sister.”
She also revealed more about Bridger‘s injuries – “After getting bit several times on the face and head, he grabbed his sister’s hand and ran with her to keep her safe” – before tagging the cast of Avengers and other on-screen superheroes to let them know another hero is among them.
Mark was one of the first to reach out to Bridger.
“Dear Bridger, I just read about what happened to you and I wanted to reach out to say this… People who put the well beings of others in front of themselves are the most heroic and thoughtful people I know,” he wrote. “I truly respect and admire your courage and your heart. Real courage isn’t dominating people or fighting against people or walking around like a tough guy. Real courage is knowing what is right to do and doing it even when it might end up hurting you somehow. You are more of a man than many, many I have seen or known. With Admiration…Mark Ruffalo (Bruce Banner/Hulk/Professor).”
Later on, Chris recorded a special message for the young boy, and promised to send him an official Captain America shield for his bravery.
Well played Cap!
