Chris Evans visits Disney World pulls ‘sword from stone’

Hollywood superstar Chris Evans is no stranger to holding on to enchanted items and his recent visit to Walt Disney World provided an opportunity to add another one to his list.

At the Magic Kingdom, Evans, who was on vacation with family and friends at Walt Disney World Resort, stood in front of the Prince Charming Regal Carrousel at the Sword in the Stone. Normally, those who try to pull out this stone are thwarted. The enchantment is too strong and most are not “worthy” of lifting the sword. For whoever removes the sword will be the future king.

However, this is Chris Evans, – Captain America – who in “Avengers: Endgame” wielded Thor’s Hammer Mjölnir, which is enchanted by Odin with the following:”Whosoever holds this hammer, if he be worthy, shall possess the power of THOR!”

And so, Evans, of course, tugged on the sword and pulled it from the stone. Now, the next time you head to Magic Kingdom, pull on the sword and see if you’re “worthy.”

The Sword in the Stone attraction is based on the 1963 “Sword in the Stone” The Sword in the Stone.”

According to Disney: “Humor, spectacle and magic rule in Walt Disney’s legendary classic tale The Sword In The Stone! Embark on an adventure-filled quest for an unlikely hero! According to legend, only someone with honor, decency and inner strength can claim the throne of England – by pulling out the enchanted sword that lies locked in a massive stone. Many brave knights have tried, so it seems impossible that a young apprentice known as Wart could succeed. But with the guidance of the wizard Merlin, help from some hilarious friends and true strength of character, Wart just might become England’s greatest king.”
