Chris Evans Avoids Saturday Night Live Hosting Duties Despite Promoting New Film Due to Lasting Anxiety and Self-Doubt

The actor has actively avoided hosting Saturday Night Live for many years.
Evans lacks confidence in his comedic abilities and hosting the show would cause significant anxiety.
Although friends have reassured Evans he is funny, he still does not believe he has the talent to host SNL successfully.
While promoting his new romantic comedy, Ghosted, Evans is only open to a brief cameo appearance on SNL, not a hosting gig.
Despite many opportunities, Evans' fear of bombing as SNL host has prevented him from taking on the role.
