She said: “#homecut (swipe) Stop or keep going?? (For those of you that follow me on @thesquickerwonkers … you already know.)”

When a fan asked if it was “for a role or just for fun”, she replied: “Always fun.”

Evangeline got plenty of support from her followers, while others were shocked that she’d done it.

One asked: “did you really cut your own hair? For real?”

Another exclaimed: “SHE SHAVED IT!!!”

She joined the Marvel Cinematic Universe as the Wasp in 2015’s Ant-Man, a role in which she reprised for the sequel that became Marvel’s first movie to feature a female hero in the title; Ant-Man and The Wasp.
