Chris Evans and Jenny Slate Take Their Romance to the Big Screen in Gifted

Updated on Nov 2, 2016 at 2:00 AM

Chris Evans's new movie, Gifted, is sure to make you love him even more. In the trailer, the actor stars as a single man named Frank Adler raising his late sister's 7-year-old daughter, Mary (Mckenna Grace). Everything seems to be smooth sailing until her teacher (Evans's real-life girlfriend Jenny Slate) discovers she has a gift for solving math problems, causing strife between Frank and his overbearing mother. Between the sentimental story and Evans's undeniable charm, we can already tell this is going to be a tearjerker. Oh, did we mention it's also directed by the same guy who created (500) Days of Summer? Goodbye forever. Watch the trailer here and catch the film when it hits theaters on April 12.
