Some fans have barely been able to control themselves after actor Chris Evans appeared in nothing but a jockstrap in a scene from his new his film.

The actor stars as cult leader Reverend Drew Devlin in Honey Don’t, which also features Margaret Qualley and Aubrey Plaza.

While the film has not been terribly well received – Rotten Tomatoes currently lists it with a 45 per cent approval rating from critics and 42 per cent from audiences – the near-naked scene has gone down a treat with some people.

And it didn’t take long or the thirsty comments to start rolling in after Evans’ character was seen wearing nothing but a classic white jockstrap.

“Happy slutty Chris Evans day to those who celebrate,” wrote one fan on X/Twitter. Others said: “Might never recover,” and, “I need to see this film on the big screen….for scientific reasons.”

Although the clip has disappeared

Although the clip has disappeared from X/Twitter, it is still getting the attention on Reddit. “OMG, he’s filling the f*ck out of that jockstrap” one person proclaimed while another wrote: “I still don’t know how to feel about [the film] don’t but it gave us Chris Evans in a jockstrap so I can’t even be mad.”

Some people have even suggested that Evans’ bulge had been edited to look smaller.

“Chris Evans wears only a jockstrap for an extended period of time in Honey, Don’t, in case you’re the kind of person who needs to know that, and I was,” one of them wrote.

Honey Don’t, the second film in a “lesbian B-movie trilogy”, from Ethan Coen, following on from Drive-Away Dolls, is due in UK cinemas on 5 September.
