Avengers: Infinity War had its world premiere debut last night, bringing people from all across the Marvel Cinematic Universe under one roof. And while the red carpet premiere gave fans a lot to talk about, one actor who didn’t make the premiere has people buzzing as well.

As Marvel fans noticed throughout last night’s red carpet livestream, Captain America actor Chris Evans was absent from the event. Evans explained why he missed the premiere in a tweet this morning, revealing that the event conflicted with the run of his Broadway play, Lobby Hero.
So sorry I couldn’t be at the premiere last night!! I really wanted to, but my theater schudele wouldn’t allow. From what I gather, it was an amazing night and I couldn’t be more proud of @Russo_Brothers and everyone at @MarvelStudios for knocking ANOTHER one out of the park!

While Evans had a good reason for not showing up at the premiere, it’s safe to say that some fans were saddened by him not being able to join the rest of his Infinity War castmates. Here are some of our favorite tweets about it.

I really wanted Chris Evans and Robert Downey Jr to show up to the Avengers premiere and hold hands the whole way down the red carpet. #AvengersInfinityWar
