Ana de Armas is hosting “Saturday Night Live” on April 15, but her “Knives Out” and “Ghosted” co-star, Chris Evans, doesn’t want to go near the show if it means he has to host it. “I’ve avoided hosting ‘SNL’ like the plague for years now just because I’m so scared. It’s terrifying to me,” he told ET Canada. The Marvel actor was open to making a cameo, though. “A cameo sounds great, that’s perfect,” he said. “In and out… get your toes wet.”
Although Evans expressed his fear of hosting “SNL,” he did take the time to praise de Armas’ courage for taking on the gig. “I tip my hat to her,” he said. “She’s going to be amazing. But it would provide a lot of sleepless nights for me.” The “Captain America” actor then admitted that he doesn’t think he’s funny. “I just know how I would feel,” he added. “It would just be an everyday anxiety, constant regret. Why did I do this?”

It has been reported that fans enjoy joking that Evans is the only Hollywood Chris who hasn’t hosted “SNL,” as Chris Hemsworth, Chris Pratt, and Chris Pine have all hosted. They’ve also noted that he dated a former cast member on the show — Jenny Slate. Not to mention, his fellow “Avengers” castmate’s husband — Colin Jost, who is married to Scarlett Johansson — is a writer and a co-anchor for “Weekend Update.”
