The first, full-length trailer for the weird and wonderful Barbie movie has been released and we introduce you to Cowboy Ken himself, Scott Evans, reveal who his famous brother is, and discuss the full cast involved.
As La La Land star, Ryan Gosling, appears in this unlikely role, Marvel fans are still eyeing the actor for a rumored Ghost Rider role in the MCU that Gosling has expressed interest in.
Directed by Greta Gerwig and co-written by Gerwig and Noah Baumbach, the comedy movie, Barbie, is based on the line of fashion dolls released by Mattel during the 90s, following the titular character who has been exiled from Barbie Land and must search the human world for happiness.
Meet Scott Evans as Cowboy Ken
Scott Evans plays a variant of Gosling’s Ken, called Cowboy Ken, who, of course, wears a white cowboy hat and will likely have a small role in the movie.
Evans began his career as an actor back in the long-running series, The Guiding Light, and went on to appear in well-known shows Law & Order, White Collar, and Grace and Frankie.
The actor found a regular spot in 2008’s One Life to Live series, where he played Oliver Fish for 137 episodes.
In addition to his Barbie role, Evans has also recently been starring in The Rookie: Feds and the series With Love.
Who is Scott Evans’ famous brother?
Scott Evans is actually the younger brother of Marvel star, Chris Evans, who appeared in a number of MCU movies playing Steve Rogers, a.k.a. Captain America.
Scott and Chris also have two sisters, Carly and Shanna, and parents, dentist Bob Evans and dancer, Lisa Evans.
The brothers shared a message with the LGBTQ+ nonprofit, It Gets Better Project, last year to stand in solidarity with LGBTQ+ youths.
