‘Thor’ star Chris Hemsworth said he ‘got sick’ of playing the Marvel hero every couple of years. Now, he’s ready to ‘do some other stuff for a while.’
Chris Hemsworth dedicated more than a quarter of his life to playing Thor for Marvel. Naturally, taking on the Mjölnir-wielding Norse god grew stale.
Nearly a year after starring in the critically panned “Thor: Love and Thunder,” Hemsworth, 39, opened up in a far-ranging interview with British GQ about his time in the Marvel films, his ambitions and his next steps.
“I really wanna do some other stuff for a while,” the “Extraction 2” star said in the interview published Tuesday.
In 2011, the Australian born-actor launched into superstardom with the first “Thor” film. As a sculpted, caped fish-out-of-water with luscious blond locks, Hemsworth brought “Thor” to a new generation of moviegoers, helping to lay the foundation for Marvel’s “Avengers” and several “Thor” sequels.
Within a decade, Hemsworth had portrayed Thor in 13 projects, including video games and the blockbuster movies “Avengers: Endgame” and “Thor: Ragnarok.
