If you heard that an actor stuck a banana up his ass, you’d normally think it was either some sort of tabloid scandal or part of a strange avant garde art piece, but Chris Evans did it for comedy.
While talking to The Wrap about his directorial debut, Before We Go, that’s premièring at at the Toronto International Film Festival, the Captain America star was taken back to the early part of his career, where in his very first Hollywood movie he landed the lead role – Not Another Teen Movie.
The Wrap wanted to know, “How did it feel after you ‘made it’ in your film debut?”
However Chris has his reservations about it saying, “I don’t know if I made it. The movie had me stick a banana in my ass. It wasn’t exactly some high brow art.”
The banana was part of a scene that certainly helped get Chris some of his first adoring fans, where he wore a whipped cream bikini – and nothing else – while spoofing a similar scene featuring Ali Larter in Varisty Blues. You can take a look at the scene below, along with the full Wrap interview with director’s-hat Chris.
While Not Another Teen Movie has a lot of detractors, personally I love it, as it manages to hit just the right level of juvenile humour for me. And whipped cream Chris is certainly a bonus.
