Chris Hemsworth, the “Thor” actor, wished Chris Evans a happy 40th birthday, saying the “Captain America” star would always be “number one” in his eyes.
According to India time, Evans turned 40 on Sunday, and Hemsworth pranked Evans by giving him a shout-out on Instagram.

“Happy 40th birthday Chris Evans, you’ll always be number 1 in my book @chrisevans,” Hemsworth wrote.
Hemsworth is shown in the photo with Thor's long golden hair and a wide smile. A beaming Pratt, dressed as Star-Lord, offers the camera a thumbs-up sign.
Chris Hemsworth previously posted a handwritten note from his seven-year-old son Tristan on Instagram. His youngster refers to the 37-year-old actor as a "special friend" on a piece of paper from a lined notepad in the photo.
The note reads: “My special friend is dad, together we go in the pool, together they make me feel happy.”
