Chris Evans decided to trade his shield for some pixie dust this holiday season, spending December 29 at the happiest place on Earth: Walt Disney World. Because why wouldn’t Captain America celebrate the holidays surrounded by singing princesses, oversized mice, and churros the size of your forearm?
Accompanied by his family and friends, the 43-year-old Marvel heartthrob took some time to enjoy the Magic Kingdom. But being Chris Evans, he didn’t just ride Space Mountain like a mere mortal—oh no. He zeroed in on the Sword in the Stone attraction to prove once and for all that he’s not just a superhero on-screen.
For those unfamiliar, this attraction invites regular people to attempt the impossible: lifting a sword embedded in stone, just like in the 1963 Disney classic. Most guests leave with sore arms and a bruised ego. Chris, however? He casually yanked that thing out like it was a loose tooth, leaving witnesses wondering if he’s secretly descended from King Arthur.
Photos from the day show Chris looking effortlessly cool as he pulled off the feat, possibly while humming “Do You Wanna Build a Snowman?” (Unconfirmed, but let’s hope.)
Disney fans in attendance are still recovering from seeing a real-life superhero wielding medieval weaponry in Mickey Mouse’s backyard. Meanwhile, we’re just over here wondering if there’s anything Chris Evans can’t do. Save the universe? Check. Win over Disney adults? Double-check. Make us believe in magic? Mission accomplished.
