Before Thor 4, Chris Hemsworth remembers Landing Thor and how he beat his younger brother Liam for the role

The Marvel Cinematic Universe is so full of actors now that almost every major Hollywood star has appeared there. The launch Thor: love and thunder it’s just a who’s who of the big names. But let’s go back to the Marvel’s debut didn’t have all the money in the world and so he chose largely unknown actors and ended up turning them into stars. One such star is Chris Hemsworth, who became Thor, although he could have been a different Hemsworth in the role.

In an interview with wiring Chris Hemsworth shares how his first audition for Thor, in his own words, “sucked,” but his brother Liam nearly got the role. Ultimately, the feeling was that Liam was too young for the role, but that opened the door for his older brother to reappear. Chris Hemsworth explains …

My younger brother had auditioned and came very close: he finished in the bottom five people. And then I didn’t understand. And they said, ‘Look, he’s great, but he’s a little young. Then my manager said, “Well, he’s got an older brother,” which was me, and I went back, auditioned a couple of times and had a different attitude. Maybe he had a little more motivation because my little brother had been looking at it and I hadn’t.

Chris Hemsworth has talked about almost losing the role of Thor to Liam earlier . As an older brother, I can appreciate how a person’s perspective can change when a younger brother is more successful in a certain area. He can definitely improve his motivation. However, Chris Hemsworth says his younger brother himself nearly got the role of Thor wasn’t the only reason he was in a different place for his second audition. He had also just done more in Hollywood, including a small but important role in rebooting star Trek , and it was safer the second time around. Hemsworth continues …

I had also made a few films between these two auditions, so I had a little more experience and confidence in what I was going to do. I was so excited. I had a slight hesitation: was it a six-movie affair and did he want to be locked up and typed in as a character? Then I said, ‘You have no choice, so shut up.’ And I rejected that rumor and said, “Yes”. But I really didn’t know, none of us knew, if it would work and if there was going to be an extension beyond that first movie.

Typography and superhero roles often went together and Chris Hemsworth made no secret of this concern. . This first phase of the MCU was about building the Avengers initiative, something no one was sure would work, and that was reflected in the concept of the films themselves, building a cinematic universe in a way that no one had ever experienced before. Nobody was sure it would work, but it sure did. This got us so far, where Chris Hemsworth plays. Thor: love and thunderthe the first of the MCU actors to get a fourth solo film. I’m sure it worked for you.
