“My name is Christopher Evans and I am a high school junior with an intense passion for theatre.’’ So wrote actor Chris Evans back in March 1998, when he was searching for an internship for the summer. The Sudbury native and “Captain America’’ star recently posted that typewritten letter on Twitter and wrote: “Wow. My dad found the letter I sent to DOZENS of casting directors during my junior year. Hilarious.’’

“And the resume/headshot I sent along with it is BEYOND humiliating. Truly comical. Luckily it did somehow lead to an internship,’’ he wrote in another tweet, accompanied by the hashtag: #dumbluck.
