Ghosted includes Chris Evans reuniting with a few of his Marvel costars, and it's absolutely perfect.
There are obviously massive spoilers ahead for Ghosted!
Ever since Chris Evans said goodbye to the iconic role of Captain America in 2019, he's given us a slew of movies where he's just....having fun.
Marvel Studios
From Knives Out to Gray Man to Lightyear, our beautiful dorito has blossomed into carefree frito bag pie, seasoning our lives with sprinkles of joy here and there.
Lionsgate films
His latest movie, Ghosted, marks his return to romcoms, which as fans of bangers like What's Your Number and The Nanny Diaries know, is a blessing.

Apple TV+In Ghosted, Evans plays a down to earth guy who runs a farmer's market stand who has a one night stand with a spy (de Armas). When she ghosts after that one perfect night, he flies to London as a grand romantic gesture to ask her out on date number two. However, when he gets there, he finds himself swept up in one of her missions, leading the odd couple on an action packed adventure.
However, what truly steals hearts in Ghosted isn't Chris's long ass eyelashes and soft ass smile. I can't even say it's Ana de Armas' delightful turn as an action star.

Captain de Armas *salute emoji*
It's the full on Captain America: Winter Soldier reunion right in the middle of the freaking movie!!!
Marvel Studios
Evans told Entertainment Weekly that while he normally hates asking his friends to do cameos, "[Sebastian Stan and Anthony Mackie are] old buddies, so it just kind of feels good. It's like when your buddy does pick you up from the airport, you're like, 'Thanks man. Thanks for showing up.'"
This all kicks off because at this point of the movie, Ana and Chris are sick of each other. Her mission's a bust because of him, and he can't believe she's a spy instead of an art curator. Ana arranges for a contact (and ex-lover) to get Chris safely out of the country and back home — this time, a mutual ghosting — but a barrage of assassins scurry out of the woodwork before they can part ways.

(Yes, I know their character names are Cole and Sadie respectively, but let's be honest, no one will remember that in the wake of these cameos.)
First, comes Anthony Mackie, who kills the contact, and after telling them he's "The Grandson of Sam" (Wilson), gets jumped by none other than...
John Cho, aka The Leopard, who is not in the MCU, but I'm taking this as a sign he should be.

But John Cho does play Spike Speigel in Netflix's Cowboy Bebop, so he is, in fact, the best bounty hunter.
Then, comes Sebastian Stan, rising from the backseat of their getaway vehicle like an amnesiac super soldier fresh out of cryo sleep to snap John Cho's neck.
And at first it seems Sebastian has everything under control, that is until, he makes them switch vehicles and gets run over by none other than Anthony Mackie in a truck.
Apple TV+
Chris and Ana obviously escape Anthony's clutches after he face plants right next to the body of his dear, departed Sebastian, but let me take this moment to say: May the Falcon (now Captain America) and Winter Soldier rivalry never end.
The cherry on top of this delectable MCU sundae? Ryan Reynolds, aka Deadpool, cameos near the end of the movie as another one of Ana's ex-lovers.
Those five minutes were all it took for Twitter to time travel to 2014 when everyone was obsessed with Sebastian, Chris, and Anthony in Captain America: The Winter Soldier, and just their friendships in general. Below are some of the best reactions:
If you love what you read, give your favorite tweets a like and the users a follow so you can make your timeline a more fun place to be.
