Marvel Actors Chris Evans and Paul Rudd Interview Each Other for Actor on Actors. During the COVID-19 pandemic, entertainment has had to adjust to an “at home” setting, particularly when it comes to shows featuring interviews. Variety has a fantastic show called Actors on Actors which allows actors to interview each other in a more relaxed setting.

Recently, Chris Evans and Paul Rudd sat down and interviewed one another about their current projects, their time with Marvel, prior movies/shows, and had fun just sharing stories about their times together on set. The entire conversation is roughly 45-mins long, but it honestly flows so naturally and covers many interesting topics including Paul’s time on Friends and the differences between Chris’ characters in Marvel and Defending Jacob.

You can watch the full interview between Evans and Rudd in the video shared below: side note: some content within the interview may be considered NSFW including crude humor and language

The greenest McDonald’s in the world just opened at Walt Disney World! It reopened as of June 30 after having been under construction for several months. The entire restaurant was built and reimagined to be eco-friendly and energy-efficient.

This McDonald’s has 1066 solar panels that generate 600,000 kilowatts every year, 4800 square feet of solar glass panels covering the outdoor seating area, 600 square feet of Louver windows to keep cool air inside the restaurant, solar-powered parking lot lights, a living wall of Florida greenery, and stationary bikes that power the Golden Arches at night!

Upon arriving, guests are immediately cooled down by stepping into the patio area. Fans overhead circulate cool air into the shaded veranda and the difference, after a day outside at Walt Disney World, is notable!

The next striking feature, once everyone has been able to appreciate the comfort of circulating air, is the living wall that boasts the iconic “M” of McDonald’s. The plants, native to Florida, are quite an impressive sight. Usable stationary bikes and a hand crank enable guests to power the lights on the Golden Arches themselves.

Safety precautions are at the forefront of the location’s interests, as certain tables have been marked out for social distancing. Signs also inform guests about health standards being kept inside. Footpads are at the bottoms of the doors to enable guests to enter touch-free.

Once inside, customers can order through the mobile app or by using a touchscreen. While workers are present, keeping the restaurant clean and beautiful, the need for communication and contact is limited.

The pick-up counter has plexiglass shields up to help distance customers from workers. The entire experience is quick and painless for those who prefer contactless encounters. 
The new green McDonald’s at Walt Disney World is now up and running! It is certain to be a popular spot for guests soon, so interested parties should check it out while crowds are low.

“No Kid Hungry is a national campaign run by Share Our Strength, a nonprofit working to solve problems of hunger and poverty in the United States and around the world. After 25 years of successfully investing in local nonprofits and helping find the best approaches to eradicating poverty and hunger, Share Our Strength launched No Kid Hungry in 2010. As a child hunger organization, ending childhood hunger is our primary focus, though Share Our Strength continues to invest in and develop other campaigns.”

“Color Of Change is the nation’s largest online racial justice organization. We help people respond effectively to injustice in the world around us. As a national online force driven by 1.7 million members, we move decision-makers in corporations and government to create a more human and less hostile world for Black people in America. COC campaigns and initiatives win changes that matter. By designing strategies powerful enough to fight racism and injustice—in politics and culture, in the work place and the economy, in criminal justice and community life, and wherever they exist—we are changing both the written and unwritten rules of society. We mobilize our members to end practices and systems that unfairly hold Black people back, and champion solutions that move us all forward.”
