There is likely to be a bit of friendly rivalry between the stars of Marvel's increasingly numerous superhero franchises. Playing that up, Chris Pratt (Star-Lord in Guardians of the Galaxy) and Chris Evans (Captain America) took to Twitter earlier this month to engage in a playful 'war' ahead of last week's Super Bowl.

Their bet was simple: since they each followed one of the teams, they agreed that the 'loser' would visit a charity in the 'winner's' city - dressed as their respective superhero.

Evans' favourites the New England Patriots, as you're likely aware, were the winners, so 'Star-Lord' himself visited a group of kids benefiting from Christopher's Place - a Boston charity providing 'supportive housing for families whose children are receiving outpatient pediatric cancer treatments'.

Befitting a charitable bet, however, Evans has said he will soon visit Pratt's preferred charity, Seattle Children's Hospital, as well
