Ride [S.S]

94 / interview

Hey Evanne, congratulations on your pregnancy, this is a long time coming huh?

Thank you! And no, not really haha.

What happened with those texts that got leaked and the so-called negative tests?

Right, I heard that someone had faked those and they were actually my texts to and from Elizabeth, I don't know how they got leaked or whatever but yay for technology right. I did have negative tests but not all tests are legit, and it turns out I was pregnant at that time because after that I'm like "I'm still late and now it's worst, I'm throwing up and having major cravings". I craved M&M's all the time, especially the crunchy ones. And, this was perfect because I had time to tell my family, Seb and all my friends myself without any form of media ruining it, so it really was a win-win situation.

What was Seb's reaction to you being pregnant?

Not going to lie, he freaked out for a moment, totally was silent on me for a while, but I guess once it sunk in, he was ecstatic. He phoned his parents straight away and his mom cried then I cried...

He sounds like a totally sweetheart, definitely ready for parenthood?

Hell no. Neither of us are ready but we're giving it a go, we're semi-ready for whatever is thrown at us.

What is happening filming wise for Infinity War?

I'm obviously still playing Williams, but I ha e stunt doubles for some full body shots and all the stunts, the crew are very attentive to me always asking if I'm okay to carry on with filming and double checking the sets in-case there's something that could harm me or something I could trip over... I'm always tripping over something..

Apart from you and Seb, who is the most excited for this baby from the cast?

I think it's a tie between Elizabeth [Olsen] and Robert [Downey Jr], they're both super excited. Elizabeth is already the godmother of the baby, she's my best friend and has been since I met her and she's been with me through everything more or less, and Robert, he's a dad himself and he just loves kids, he's always asking me how things are going and if I have any plans name wise, or just any cute stuff I've bought recently. He and his wife [Susan Downey] bought some really cute teddies for the nursery, which I love I nearly stole them for myself.

We saw that Chris made a hashtag which was "#civilwargodfatheredition", is there a battle for the title of godfather?

I don't know, haha, me and Seb haven't talked about making either Chris or some else godfather, I made the decision on my own to make Elizabeth the godmother so I guess it's up to Seb on who he wants to be the godfather? I really don't know...

We also saw the trailer for the film you and Chris did together, what was it like filming with him on something not Marvel related? Even playing his romantic interest?

It was weird no doubt, he's always going to be Captain America in my eyes, but it wasn't weird playing his romantic interest, as you called it, it was fun, and I got to witness him playing someone else other than an old guy stuck in the modern day and it was great. He really is an fantastic actor and working with him is amazing. He's one f my best friends and doing that film with him didn't change that, there was no weird awkwardness when filming, we just had fun with it.

Did Seb not get weird about Chris and you in this film?

No, I just told him what was going to happen and left him to it. He said in an interview that "he gets to nail his wife" on screen, so I'm getting payback by saying I get to kiss his best friend on screen, haha.

Well that's all we have time for I'm afraid but congratulations on your pregnancy, we're really happy for you..

Thank you, I'm so happy, and to think this is from being in Agents of Shield and going onto Civil War, I think I owe Marvel my life.
