'" That, of course referring to Thor and Hulk's exchange during Thor: Ragnarok . The Iron Man star then continued, "Scarlett got to the heart of it with, 'Sensitive leading lady.'" But Evans got to the heart of the matter, with Downey leaning into the microphone to add, "Captain America calls him, 'Second-best Chris.
