VOTE Nov 3rd!!! — Chris Evans (@ChrisEvans) September 15, 2020

Over the weekend, 39-year-old Evans accidentally posted an Instagram story of him playing the popular game, Heads Up but failed to edit the final bit of the clip which revealed the gallery of videos and photos on his phone, including one featuring a penis.

Evans' die hard fans quickly came to the actor's rescue, encouraging netizens not to re-share or post the photo online. Some went further as to post videos and photos of Evans' dog Dodger as well as other wholesome content on the actor to drown out the nude photo.
