HOLLYWOOD actor Chris Evans is 'devastated' that Republican candidate Donald Trump has won the race to become the 45th president of the United States.

In a Twitter posting recently, the star famous for his role as Captain America in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, described the US election results as embarrassing for the country.

"This is an embarrassing night for America. We've let a hatemonger lead our great nation. We've let a bully set our course. I'm devastated," he tweeted.


Captain America has always been portrayed as an icon of hope — a symbol of patriotism, honour and bravery.
