Despite speculations around Henry Cavill and Namjoon

Not Henry Cavill or Nam-joon, but THIS MCU Star Took Home the Title of ‘Sexiest Man Alive 2022’

The entertainment industry is overflowing with not only talented but also
drop-dead gorgeous celebrities. While several award shows recognize their
professional chops, there is also no shortage of titles acknowledging their
swoon-worthy good looks. Among those, one of the most popular accolades is
People Magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive. For years now, there have been speculations
about Netflix’s resident monster hunter, Henry Cavill, taking home this title.



Another heartthrob in the running this year was the South Korean rapper and
songwriter Kim Nam-Joon. Leader of the celebrated boy band BTS, he has an
immense fan following all over the world. However, despite both of them being
popular choices, it was a familiar face from the Marvel Cinematic Universe who
beat them to the punch. Any guesses?

BEATING HENRY CAVILL AND MANY OTHERS, THIS MCU STAR IS THE SEXIEST MAN ALIVE
2022

From his comeback as DC’s Superman to constant rumors around him being the next
Bond, 2022 has been an amazing year for Henry Cavill
[https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/henry-cavill/]. His fans were almost certain that
he would take home People Magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive crown home. Alas, he
still did not quite make the cut. Having said that, with Chris Evans getting
hotter by the second and aging in reverse, it is hardly a surprise that the
honor went to him.



Just last night, on November 7, our very own Captain America won the
distinguished title. Just like last year, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert
made the announcement. In line with his signature humor, the talk show host took
his time to build up to the reveal.

“It is with humility and gratitude that I am thrilled to announce that People
magazine has decided to award me the incredible honor,” declared Colbert,
setting up the premise of his Joke. As the studio audience applauded
uproariously, he continued, “Of announcing the sexiest man alive for a second
year in a row!”

Furthermore, he hilariously declared the finalists to be Chris Evans and yet
another satirist and late-night show presenter, John Oliver. After stretching
out the narrative to its extent, he finally revealed The Gray Man actor to be
the winner.



While Evans was not physically present at the announcement, the 2016 title
holder, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson,
[https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/the-rock/] bestowed the sash upon the
Knives Out actor in a pre-recorded video. Nevertheless, Evans later expressed
his joy over the title during a photoshoot with People Magazine.

“My mom will be so happy. She’s proud of everything I do, but this is something
she can really brag about,” said the MCU star.

What are your thoughts about Chris Evans being the sexiest man alive? Did you
hope it would be Henry Cavill? Let us know in the comments. Meanwhile, you can
watch The Gray Man streaming [https://www.netflix.com/in/title/81160697] on
Netflix.
