Chris Pine has exposed his thoughts on his status in the “Best Chris” debate. The gossip has been brewing in pop culture over the last few years as various of Hollywood’s biggest blockbuster hotshots, all of whom share the same first name, have come to prominence around the same time. Chris Pratt, Chris Hemsworth, and Chris Evans are the other big names in the running for the “Best Chris” title. With such a accidental rise of so many Chrises( and most of them starring in superhero franchises ), a debate has jumped up online as to which actor is the “best” Chris.

The “Best Chris” debate became something of a sensitive subject last-place month when various MCU hotshots came forward to defend Pratt from a social media trend mentioning him the “worst” Chris due to his political and religious beliefs.

While speaking on Comedy Central‘s Stir Crazy, Pine commented on the ongoing “Best Chris” battle. The Star Trek star clearly had a sense of humor about the internet’s ongoing position, roaring when Horowitz called Pine his “favorite Chris.” Pine likewise joked that all the Chrises should get together for a agreement, which he called “a Chris-i-con” or “a Rat Pack show at the Sands.” Pine further explained he thinks he is the underdog Chris saying, “I feel like I’m the underdog right now so I’ll take all the support I can get … Those damn Chrises somebody, I exactly, it’s either change my name or genuinely really step it up.”

Though “best” is certainly a subjective call, Chris Pine may currently be the most active Chris, as he’s been promoting the recently released Wonder Woman 1984. Pine reprised his role as Steve Trevor in the DC sequel, which premiere on HBO Max and in theaters on Christmas Day. Hemsworth, Pratt, and Evans are of course all incredibly popular due to their work in the MCU. While Evans has retired as Captain America, Hemsworth and Pratt will certainly have time to move up to the “Best Chris” spot as they continue to appear in future MCU movies.

The debate itself was really exactly a path for followers been involved in popular culture and quarrel online about their favorite blockbuster starrings. But in this day and age, if a gossip online becomes big enough, it will almost surely reach a celebrity’s ears. Luckily, it seems like the Big 4 of Chrises have accepted the comparisons with feeling and forgivenes.
