New York: Chris Evans quickly became a topic of discussion on Twitter and other social media platforms after he accidentally shared a photo of a penis during an innocuous game on Instagram.The 39-year-old Avengers: Endgame star shared a short video to his Instagram Stories on Saturday of himself and some friends playing Heads Up.But at the end of the video, a shot of the actor's phone camera roll came up, which featured a close-up photo of a penis. The entire clip has since been deleted.The picture didn't leave anything to the imagination, but it was cropped too closely to have any identifying features.Another image in the photo grid featured a headshot of the Avengers star with the words 'Guard That P***y' superimposed. Evans quickly became the subject of hundreds of thousands of tweets about the shocking photo. Most posts took a light-hearted approach to the accidental disclosure, with some gushing about the actor's potential anatomy.One Twitter user joked, 'Chris Evans seeing the response online..' and paired the caption with a gif of his Knives Out character saying, 'We gotta do this more often!'Another person wrote, 'I don't wanna see Chris Evans' ding a ling unless he is showing it to me in person.

Me:' and included a meme reading, 'Trust nobody not even yourself' that showed a man whose doppelgänger was sneaking up behind him with a gun.Although plenty of users had their own reactions to the accidental photo, a meme quickly developed in which Twitter posters shared the image of Evans' camera roll (which was cropped out by Twitter) but included something unexpected in place of the penis.'Can someone explain why chris evans has this picture of thanos in his phone?' one post read, while featuring a camera roll snap including a humorous image of Thanos from the Avengers films with his bulging muscles and derriere exposed. It wasn't all fun and games, though, and multiple Twitter users called out those searching for the nude photo and posting about it because it lacked Evans' consent.'I will put this right here: please do not share Chris Evans' nudes. It's not okay because he's a man, it's not okay because he's adored, it's NOT OKAY because he accidentally posted it himself. He's taken the images down; so should you. #consentmatters,' urged one person.Another fan wrote: 'Everyone talking about chris evans leaking his own nudes needs to really not spread that video around.
