ReedPop has additionally named Evans as the event's official Guest of Honor. Outside of his Marvel fame, Evans gained popularity from his roles in Knives Out, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, What's Your Number?, Gifted, The Gray Man, and more. Born in Boston, Massachusetts, Evans' beginnings of performing at community theaters later blossomed into stardom in the 2010s as his popularity skyrocketed.
