Chris Evans and Jenny Slate

Chris Evans and Jenny Slate are officially over.

E! reports the breakup was "amicable and recent." According to a source close to the Captain America: Civil War star, "it wasn't dramatic or anything like that."

Though the two were photographed toasting to 2017 on New Year's Day, the actor headed off to Super Bowl 51 a month later with friend and co-star Jeremy Renner.

Meanwhile, Slate was a notable absence from the game.

The two met in October 2015 on the set of the upcoming drama, "Gifted", and were confirmed to be dating after Slate separated from her husband of three years, Dean Fleischer-Camp.

They were also spotted on a double date with Chris' brother, Scott Evans, at Magnolia in Hollywood last March.

Although their relationship did not work out, Evans has not hidden his desire to find a life partner.

"You get to a point where you want the next thing. You see people who are just so happy and have great kids," he told E! News in 2015. "It's one of those things you're looking forward to doing. You can't rush it, but that's definitely where I'm looking."
