Chris Evans Celebrates Puncture's Release and a Wrap For the Avengers!

Chris Evans suited up last night to attend the Gucci-sponsored NYC premiere of his movie Puncture. In the film, which opens in limited release on Friday, Sept. 23, Chris stars as a drug-addicted lawyer who takes on a medical-industry conspiracy in the story based on real-life incidents - check out a preview of Chris Evans in Puncture. It's a role that couldn't be more different than his Captain America. Chris spoke about his work in both the legal drama and Marvel series while on the printed carpet. He's been in the Big Apple rocking the superhero get-up shooting The Avengers, and production actually wrapped a few days ago. Chris told us yesterday that he and castmates like Scarlett Johansson and Robert Downey, Jr. celebrated by having a big dinner. Celebrating was also in store for Chris last night, when he and Puncture directors, Adam and Mark Kassen, retired to the penthouse at The Hotel on Rivington for their afterparty. Chris had the company of pal Jeremy Strong as they let loose well into the evening alongside the actor's costars Vinessa Shaw and Jesse L. Martin. There's more promotion for Chris to come, since his comedy with Anna Faris called What's Your Number comes out on Sept. 30.
