Chris Evans Explains Dog Dodger's Absence at Wedding

Chris Evans opens up about why his rescue dog Dodger did not attend his wedding to Alba Baptista, citing the pet's overly enthusiastic nature. Despite Dodger's absence, Evans' affection for him remains strong. Evans also discusses his role in 'Deadpool and Wolverine' and his partnership with Jinx dog food.

Chris Evans has finally disclosed the reason his beloved rescue dog, Dodger, was not present at his wedding to Alba Baptista last September. In an exclusive interview with E! News, Evans highlighted that despite Dodger's special place in his heart, the boxer mix was deemed too excitable for the event.

"We didn't think we could trust him," Evans confessed to E! News. "He's too excited, too much of a social butterfly." Evans further elaborated that Dodger's enthusiastic temperament might have been a distraction during the ceremony.

"He never would've stayed focused," Evans explained, adding, "He would have wanted to greet every single person. And yes, he probably would've stolen the show." These sentiments reflect Evan's deep affection for Dodger, whom he describes as his "best friend."

Despite Dodger's absence at the wedding, Evans' love for his pet is evident through his ongoing commitment to canine welfare. Chris Evans has partnered with Jinx, a dog food brand renowned for its high-quality pet nutrition.

"Anyone who owns a dog knows that all you really want is as much time as you can get with your dog, and that starts with nutrition," Evans stated. On the professional front, Evans recently garnered attention for his cameo in 'Deadpool and Wolverine,' a highly-anticipated appearance by fans.

"It was such a thrill," he commented about his return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. "Anytime Ryan calls, I know it's going to be something fun, but this was special. I got to revisit a character that I love, that is really dear to my heart. And to do it in such a fun way was just perfect." 'Deadpool and Wolverine' premiered in theaters on July 26. (ANI)
