Chris Hemsworth is proud of the work he has done throughout his acting career. In a recent interview, he noted that «modesty will get you far», - but at the same time, the 40-year-old movie star spoke out about Marvel actors who «criticize» their films because of their box office failures.
«It's like, 'These are successful movies — put me in one of them. Oh, mine didn’t work out? I’ll criticize them,'» Chris said during a recent interview with The Times of London. «And it used to annoy me when actors later talked about a film with guilt or shame. Modesty will get you far».
Additionally, the Australian actor opened up about the «harsh» criticism that superhero films have received from Hollywood icons such as directors Francis Ford Coppola and Martin Scorsese.
«It hurt me. And it bothers me, especially coming from heroes», - Chris admitted. «It was a backlash for me when people criticized the superhero space. Those guys also had movies that didn’t work out — we all have that. When they talked about what’s wrong with superheroes, I thought, 'Cool, tell that to the billions who watch them.' Were they all wrong?»
The Marvel Cinematic Universe star began his career in show business after landing several television roles in the early 2000s. He got his big break when he was cast as Kim Hyde in the Australian soap opera «Home and Away», - which he talked about in his new interview.
«One of the older actors on 'Home and Away' said, 'We don’t get paid to make good lines good, we get paid to make bad ones work,'» Chris said. «But hey, it’s all a lesson. And if I were to go back to [Thor], I would wonder how we could change it again».
By 2011, Chris’s acting career had reached new heights when he was cast as Thor, the mythological god of thunder from the Marvel Cinematic Universe. He appeared in several films as this character, including the latest, «Thor: Love and Thunder».
Last month, the actor from «Cabin in the Woods» opened up about his performance in «Love and Thunder», - admitting that he «didn't handle the ending».
«I got carried away with improvisation and madness, and became a parody of myself», - Chris told Vanity Fair on April 30. «I didn’t handle the ending»
