Chris Evans

Like many people in 2020, Chris Evans has come to realize he can ā€œgo a very long time without human interaction,ā€ he jokes. The self-described ā€œhomebody,ā€ 39, nevertheless had a busy schedule: He launched a bipartisan political engagement website, A Starting Point, and joined Instagram (where he quickly racked up more than 7 million followers). These days, the star is feeling hopeful about what lies ahead. ā€œI try not to think too far into the future, because for me it can turn into worry, but I’d like a wife and kids,ā€ he admits. ā€œI like the idea of a very simple existence with simple pleasures.ā€

He won over hearts as Emily in Paris’s already-spoken-for love interest Gabriel on the hit Netflix show, but in reality Bravo, 32, insists his own life in the City of Lights is ā€œreally quiet and chill,ā€ he says. ā€œI have a small, close group of friends. We kind of live behind closed doors like cavemen.ā€

PEOPLE’s former Sexiest Man Alive, 48, lives every day to the fullest. ā€œMy favorite time of the day is before the sun rises and our babies are still sleeping,ā€ he says of his wife, Lauren Hashian, and their two daughters. ā€œI can get great, productive work done in my office, and of course I love when they call for me on the baby monitors — then it's breakfast time!ā€ And at night? ā€œThat’s when the babies are asleep and it's ā€˜Netflix and chill’ time with me and Lauren and a glass of Teremana,ā€ he says with a nod to his tequila brand. ā€œI'll say no more before I get in trouble.ā€

Despite catapulting into the spotlight with his gripping performance in Hulu's romantic dramaĀ Normal People (which earned him an Emmy nomination), the Irish actor, 24, still enjoys life's simple pleasures: "I love exercise, watching television, reading; fairly generic and probably boring, but that's me."

Never before have khakis and a striped tie gotten so many hot under the (Oxford) collar.
